I guess no one watched Fox in its' early years. Shows like In Living Color and Martin helped keep the network afloat,along with the Simpsons and BH90210.

It was known as the FOX model and WB and UPN utilized it to launch their networks as well. FOX came under fire for using the urban audience to build their initial numbers only to abandon them as soon as they were strong enough to reach the young white audiences. The same with WB and UPN. FOX is the first network to go back to the well.
