NBC - Tim's view

NBC is broken.

Not like "My bike is broken and I need a need chain," but like broken United States banking system broke.

Most of its ratings are in the toliet. Every night the shows on NBC are being trounced by the other networks. Remember when television was referred to as "The Big Three?" Well, NBC is now No. 4.

And the people behind NBC don't seem to care. Quotes from NBC head Jeff Zucker have him saying they probably won't be No. 1 again.

What?

Really?

If you are not in the business to try to be No. 1 every night, then something is wrong. Then this Jay Leno taking five hours of primetime each week business.

Leno won't be No. 1 in the ratings. NBC will be lucky to even beat the CW network. Hey, that "America's Next Top Model" crowd is crazy loyal.

My advice. Fire Zucker. Fire Ben Silverman who is in charge of programming.

Then fire Tim Kring.
