BRAVO.....What the Blank are they doing?

What Does Ghosthunters have that fits into Bravo programming. I'm a fan of the show not just because I'm from Rhode Island where the show originates but come on.

It might not fit in the format of bravo, but probably is popular with Bravo's demo. Kinda like unsolved mysteries on lifetime.
 
Like Barvo Syfy is owned by NBCUniversal. Bravo has been sharing programs from its sister networks for a while. But really how many times we gotta see the Real Housewives? Mostly in the early mornings Bravo run different shows from its sister networks.

And this is where I have a problem with "sister networks." If there's not enough content to fill up one network, what makes somebody like Comcast/NBCU think it's spreadable over seven?

Provide original content, or get out of the business.

But they want people to actually watch that content, and that means it all needs to be in primetime. Besides, a lot of these networks go for different audiences.

Now if streaming becomes all the rage, then you might see a lot of "sister networks" get condensed into one or two.

Ive been wondering the same thing.With Streaming why do the companies need multiple networks.Same with Premium channels. Why do you need 9 HBO's in this day and age?

Many networks won't let you watch by streaming unless you already subscribe to cable or satellite, or your ISP has a deal with the network, as in ESPN3. It seems to me you would want to advertise to non-subscribers (by teasing them with a little content) to get them to sign up. The good stuff comes out on DVD eventually.

For me, it's BBC America, Syfy, Discovery (solely for MythBusters), Science, and maybe HGTV, History, and H2 (formerly History International).

I remember when Bravo used to air operas.
...and great World Cinema (the original Breathless, Alphaville, Monkey Grip, The Coca-Cola Kid, Smash Palace). And The South Bank Show. And Inside the Actors' Studio when Lipton was able to pull in actual actors to chat with, before the idiocy that was the two-hour show devoted to Billy Joel...
