In The Networks you & your opponents are new television networks & you need new programming For this you’ll need Shows Stars & Ads Shows need Stars & Ads Stars give you bonus viewers (points) & Ads give you extra money You’ll need everything you can get; you&ll have a small amount of resources & time & you must grab the latest hot show before your opponents & some Stars will give their best effort only if you put them on in the proper conditions For example some Stars only want to be put on dramas Other Stars want to be the only Star on the show & your Ads will give you the most money only if you put them on in the correct time slot Finally Shows age & viewers lose interest so you have to keep your line-up fresh by canceling shows & sending them into reruns Fortunately you can get viewers from your reruns & you&ll get bonuses if you get a lot of shows of the same genre throughout the game If you need a special push Network Cards can give you special powers — but will a Network Card be better than another action? You&ll have to make that call The player with the most viewers after five seasons wins!
