The analysis:

The way television is has been seen for years is now quickly changing, in the article it is said that now the television distributors are allowing the internet to display television programs online. Allowing the viewers to watch the television show called, The Twilight Zone will catch the attention of many viewers and are expecting to have higher rating. Also, the Warner Brothers are planning to give a rebirth to the WB channel, which existed a few years ago and they want to see if it will be a “hit” online, perhaps an experiment to see if it can be aired once again.

The illustrators say that this sort of new way of watching television shows that were aired years ago, is not making anyone rich, just yet. But if they do make any this method will allow people to get paid easier and somewhat more. That is not the only thing that the producers are looking forward to with great anticipation. They have already found out that television shows that were aired for a few years like, Arrested Development, was not very popular, had low rating and was removed from television. Researchers have found that shows like these have much more rating online, they are more popular, have been viewed much more frequently than when they were aired online. Shows like The A-Team, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Miami Vice and Star Trek are some of the shows that are becoming once again popular, but this time through the internet. The question is, once the producers see the results on popularity, will they begin to only air shows online? And will this give less variety to the people who only have access to watch television?

This new way of viewing shows, becomes a easy accessible because nowadays the majority of people in the have high speed internet, making their time enjoyable.
