Adding a fourth hour to a show that gets watch in fragments doesn't make any sense you're right. I dont know too much about NBC but I do not alot of "Passions" fans and you would think the network itself would get more ratings with a good daytime soap.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01430973793231759392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204292817885012189.post-26758407129029616352007-01-22T16:31:00.000-08:002007-01-22T16:31:00.000-08:00The Today show is adding a fourth hour, despite lo...The Today show is adding a fourth hour, despite low ratings when a third was added. I can't make sense of how that is a smart move, and it seems you can't either. <br /><br />The show hopes to discuss more topics like cooking and fashion, but there are already talk shows later in the day that do that same thing. If there is an hour time slot to fill, NBC needs to give it to a new show that could be a variety or talk show, or even more reasonable, an actual sitcom or drama. People do watch sitcoms and dramas in the late morning, not just in the afternoon and at night. It's hard to find one on at that time unless it's syndicated or reruns. <br /><br />Just like a movie that drags on for far too long, it would be a lot more entertaining and satisfying if the show ends in a reasonable amount of time that people can sit through. Instead, they add too much extra and it gets overwhelming or boring and makes the ending not as satisfying. <br /><br />It also costs more money to add another hour, and you are only losing viewers. Another point to make is that most working business people that have 8:00-5:00 jobs are working by the fourth hour, so the ones probably watching are the retired. I doubt many are concerned or keeping up with fashion, gossip, and cooking. <br /><br />I can't imagine a fourth hour when the third hour is already going overboard. If you weigh the pros and cons, there are a lot more cons off that addition.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08708262524532274264noreply@blogger.com
