Here is my opinion: The History Channel- Watered down, unacademic shows, an obsession with war that isn't even very in-depth and now the bizarre foray into reality shows. Bravo- A voyeur channel that focuses on the super-rich. The reality shows have contracts that are outright criminal...$10,000 for AN ENTIRE SEASON, plus, you have to pay 10% of anything you make outside of the show to Bravo! Food Network- Rumored to be very cliquey and obsessed with personality, and it shows.
