Line 9:

Typically, PAX television shows average only 1% of the viewing audience, which is considerably lower than any other (major) broadcast network. To compare, [[NBC]] and [[CBS]] frequently garner 15–22% of viewers.

In [[2003]] PAX scaled back its operations, presumably due to financial losses: it was originally offering five or six new series each season. That year the number of new series airing on PAX dwindled to just two: ''[[Sue Thomas: F.B.Eye]]'' and ''[[Doc (TV series)|Doc]]''. The netlet has seemingly recovered, however,when as seven TV series made it to PAX's [[2004]]–[[2005|05]] schedule.

TheHowever, the network now plans to break its contract with NBC Universal on [[June 30]], [[2005]] and eliminate all entertainment programming on Friday [[July 1]], [[2005]] and rely on [[infomercial]]s, direct response advertising, and other paid programming to help increase cash flow.
