Nope, you neglected the worst offender… SciFi, that they renamed to SyFy (and I pronounce “siffy” or “siffylis” now) that used to have good science fiction but decided WWE and ghost hunting was the way to go.
I know, but the rest of the history of the show is kind of bleak. They had two Netflix seasons before Netflix shitcanned them, then crowdfunded a successful (and terrific IMO) 13th season. This year, they had another crowdfunder, but they did it outside of Kickstarter and put minimal effort in, so it failed. I have no idea if the show will continue at this point. There is Rifftrax and The Mads, but they aren’t really the same. I need my puppets at the bottom of the screen!
Apparently, folks don’t realize that even The Weather Channel has already dabbled in trash reality TV.

I certainly wasn’t. I guess the enshittification is complete.

I still haven’t forgiven them for cancelling MST3K after only 3 seasons.
Or Dark Matter!
The full list of good shows they cancelled or cut off early is long and painful to read.
