Today, a preponderance of advertising (in the US in 24 hours of television available worldwide, during the rest of the particular) is for Viagra, Claritin, and assorted other medications all of evening the audience is not watching other time slots? Inevitably, you which if taken, could initiate the onset of all manner of ills (many life- end up switching channel to channel to an endless rotation of threatening!). Along that line of thinking, one could assume that hackneyed C & D programs from the 80's era. today's television programming might be more geared to baby boomers, but broadly speaking it's not. ompanies like Regent have carved out a niche supplying movies to fill those other hours and give their buyers good n the US, whilst one understands the dynamics of the ratings (given Cmarket share, but the world is a big place and television is a the demographics of the majority of advertising), one cannot help hungry animal that needs to be fed. Niche television is growing in Ibut wonder why have great shows like Third Rock From The Sun, leaps and bonds, from people who like game shows to others who want The West Wing, Deadwood, Joan of Arcadia - all well scripted clever to watch golf. For the majority of audiences worldwide more good shows, vanished from the air? Granted that currently Grey's Anatomy, niche programming is needed. Clearly we are not feeding the animal an amazingly well scripted series is the toast of Hollywood. Additional what it needs to sustain itself. In the case of the UK's ITV, it's not just to the great writing, is the diversity of the superb cast, structured by the issue of advertising. The channel has gone downhill with its creator Shona Rhimes, an African American woman, who crafted unoriginal approach to what it expects its viewers to watch. It was Grey's to reflect a microcosm of society at large . refreshing to hear Michael Grade blast the channel for being insipid, and lacking in verve and originality. hile the powers-that-be at the networks are surprised and ecstatic with the ratings, it really should not be such a herein lies the tale, Grays Anatomy works because it is Wsurprise. There is a wealth of writers - many of them extraordinarily original, and can play for years to come. It's a female, many African American, Hispanic, and Asian - who write great Tslice of everyday life that's excellently written and delivered television. We live in a society that is multi cultural, multi racial, and with wit and verve. Elsewhere in this issue Herb Lazarus tells us that multi societal.

It's diverse, it's interesting, it's challenging, and perhaps they were too ahead of the time), but the majority of their its culturally rich. And it's a diversity that should be embraced, shows extend into the future because they are well written, and well acknowledged, enjoyed, and celebrated. Grey's Anatomy is ultimately cast. a true reflection of the society we now live in. And perhaps that is the root of its success. Diversity is the new Money, and the decision venture to say that it is the Internet - our 'new television' - that sees makers who grasp that paradigm in both television and film will enrich everyone hither and yon, and off course, with too many factors to audiences worldwide.

The problem is that there is very little or no experience to back it up, and merican television and film remain King of the castle so we argue: “Do we need to back it up?
