OK...so I am not the first to notice or write about this....but I think it is time the Management here gave us a heads up about what is going on. A trained chimp can see from the sudden and significant changes in programing that the network is at a minimum under new management...if not new ownership.
I think someone needs to step up and let the loyal fans know what is going on and give us an explanation of the new schedule. In my humble opinion the network has taken a big step back in programming. Instead of plowing ahead by buying the rights to great older (crime mystery) programs and creating a really distinctive viewing option and loyal niche audience....the network has retreated into a USA Network "lite" look. Why would I watch Slueth if the same programming is on USA? Plus...lord knows every network needs "filler" programs to frame their signature programs...but come on guys.....most of the line up IS filler now....canadian programs I have never heard of and the same rotation of a dozen or so movies.
Do the fans a favor and fill us in on the game plan....put up a suggestion box and actually listen to the ideas. Hell....hire me to turn this badboy around for six months and watch the numbers, audience and value skyrocket (P.S. I work reasonably cheap.)
