Networks discovered reality shows are much cheaper to produce than studio sitcoms...and we've been stuck with that cost-cutting formula ever since.
SAG actors strikes didn't help matters, either. Or insane wage demands by actors (cast of 'Friends' demanding $1m apiece for each episode). The networks just had enough.
I seldom watch TV much these days. I'd get rid of cable altogether if not for the fact the wife still watches a few shows on a regular basis.
