The reason why Discovery isn't on broadcast TV.

To summarize:
* Sci-fi never succeeds on broadcast television. (except for all those sci-fi shows past and present that do succeed because they're actually good)
* It will bring subscribers to All Access. (no it won't)
* They want to have more profanity and sexuality. (i.e. pandering)

Another article rips these excuses apart as well.
