    Just like Netflix who purposefully scrambles the start screen to get you to watch something else rather than your favourites. They want you to not realize you have already seen all the good stuff already and unsubscribe.

        Technically anything that conveys an idea. (But actually the idea itself is the meme)

          Is your definition/ meme criteria a meme too? Was my question a meme? Am I a meme?

    When Conan’s ratings were scaring the affiliates, many attempts were made to get him to change the show. One of the last-chance attempts was when Conan was brought into Lorne Michael’s office and briskly told that it didn’t have to be good. It just had to get an audience. He refused, and was canned soon after.

    Commercials are the content. The shows are filler.

    Pretty much most children’s cartoons were designed just to sell toys and other merchandise, and of course ads in between the show to get kids interested in pestering their parents into buying the advertised products. I tried watching a Chip and Dale episode on Disney + recently out of nostalgia, I used to love that show as a kid, but now I realized how simplistic and nonsensical the plot was, cause it’s designed to be consumed by children and they ain’t exactly media literate yet lol

    Which is why my network TV free lifestyle is much more pleasant. Advertisements ruin everything good.

    It’s also how podcasts work for people who don’t know what a RSS feed is. Or having chapter markers. Or no ad injection.

    When deciding what to put on the air, they literally call the advertising “content” and the show that you’re watching “filler”.

    Having watched a bit of YouTube TV recently, it is impressive that even now, the streaming apps still have fewer ads than television.
