Yeah it's crazy, I have no idea how so many people can actively watch something like that. Even crazier when you consider that it's airing on a commercial network, so you are going through the cycle of watching ads, cutting to an ad break, then returning to more ads.

It's because for the plebs that just watch free to air tv, they have like 3 choices they usually pick from, and at the time they zombie out in front of the tv, it's the more attractive option.

The rest of us avoid free to air like the plague, and are not the target audience.
