Monster-Vision late nights on TNT was also incredible.

They should have stuck to that style, since producing original programming shouldn't be done unless it's going to be good.
I think there seems to be some kind of following for the stuff they churn out though. I honestly think I heard that more people watch their original movies and programming than classic material.
We live in a sick world.
Niche marketing builds your base, main-stream transformation expands it.
