Once the current TV shows that have been written is exhausted, networks will go with unscripted tv shows.

One thing the average tv viewer can do is not watch the barrage of upcoming new unscripted tv shows networks will start in place of scripted tv.

Watching them is kind of like crossing the picket line.
