T.V.

Why is it, when a new t.v. show airs with something that hasn't been on television, 50 more shows of the same type soon follow. I feel that there really will never be one show of its kind because other networks want to have shows of the same kind. Look at American Idol, for example, now there is X factor. Cake Boss was soon followed with a ton of other cake shows soon after it. A huge new show is Pawn Stars and sure enough other pawn shows showed up. I just think that there can and won't be any originality on t.v. because everyone just wants to have as many ratings as possible.
