Surprise, surprise, the May sweeps is a disaster.
"The writers strike, along with the rising popularity of DVRs and the increased availability of programming on multiple platforms, conspired to make this season the lowest-rated on record for the broadcasters. There was also a dearth of breakout hits, with no new show emerging as the biz's savior."Maybe that is because all the networks have on is American Gladiator and other reality shows (though I must admit I am stoked to see is the new Mole is as good as the original one - the only reality show I really loved until Top Chef).
You wonder how come they are so surprised that people have figured out that they can entertain themselves by blowing up things on PCs or consoles, or getting outside to smell the fresh air, or countless other ways of entertaining.
Bring more shows like Lost on the air and people will start tuning back in.
