      I have a feeling it has more to do with low production cost than anything else sadly :/

        No doubt that’s the main thing but how are there enough people to watch all these channels of garbage?

          Maybe no one is actually watching, the TV ratings system is crooked somehow, and TV advertisers are getting screwed?

      It happened during the 08 writers strike. Reality Tv is cheap to produce and requires minimal writing.
