I would venture to guess that it is the younger crowd that represents the bulk of that group. They don't have the bucks to buy what the sponsors peddle so it surprised me that the networks and sponsors pander to them. The rest of the viewers don't seem to count even though the older crowd hold the purse strings and can buy the merchandise the advertisers peddle. Since the baby boom crowd is such a large group now, perhaps the networks and sponsors should revisit their research and start considering what the older crowd might like to watch. Perhaps a better cut would be 30 - 60 demo. It might help to improve on the crap that is shown on TV and give them a better chance against the cable networks (which is the haven of sanity for many of us older folks!).
