But for being on their last leg for almost 25 years (of the channel’s 32 year life) they sure are still surviving. Whether you agree with their programming or not they are still here.
I don’t really agree with this argument. TLC, MTV, VH1, History, Discovery, Animal Planet, etc are all still there despite being pretty much 100% reality TV these days. Most cable channels cycle between showing the same garbage TV and only still exist so that cable companies can brag about having 1000 channels even though they all show the same stuff and have a historically low subscriber count. They’re zombie channels.
