Nothing major and when they did have shows pulling in good numbers, not enough of them to put any real pressure on WWE. WWE still holds a big advantage of providing consistent 52-week shows per year compared to popular regular shows taking lengthy breaks in between seasons.

FOX is in a similar situation even though they also have a long time rep of not being shy when it comes to pulling the plug on under performing or expensive shows. The year before SD's arrival, FOX had a kids cooking contest show that was pulling in 3-4+ million weekly but only lasted for a few months at a time since it was seasonal.

There are also other factors besides ratings that contribute to both WWE's advantages and disadvantages with both networks.
