New Networks

For 20+ years ABC, NBC and CBS are the only things on TV. In the mid-80's that changes

1986 Fox Will try anything to get ratings among younger viewers. Sexy stuff, but also SciFi. Shows started at 5-past the hour, just because. FOX = 20th Century Fox
1990 HBO HBO just starts making some original programming
90's USA Network Older basic cable reruns network. Starts making some original shows
1995 WB Looking for even younger viewers. Buffy! Also the repulsive Dawson's Creek. WB = Warner Brother's network
2006 CW The WB turned into this The home of TV where every show has forced soap-opera romance; and landlords, judges, CEO's, ancient demons all look like attractive mid-20's
2014 H&I Will show anything in reruns, including some cable SciFi On-air in larger cities
2015 COMET Ditto. Shows any old SciFi/Fantasy reruns
