According to an article in Time Magazine, television shows are produced to attract specific demographics, include gender and age, however, they often miss the mark. Shows that are produced to attract women, often find the majority of viewers are actually men… and vice versa. Shows that include women who are scantily dressed or show heavy cleavage are mostly intended for male audiences, but if the content doesn’t pan out as being good for men’s fantasies then the channel will be changed before you can say “Sports Network”.

In fact, some include great female leads, plots and stories, so beware… you may become addicted.
