Thats true but its the TV channel that allocate timing slots etc, therefore the decision to have live feed or not is down to the transmitting station.

Also they do sit down during negotations and decide what sort of things would be suitable for the particular target audience/time slot.

TV stations arent in the habit of sitting down and saying we need a one/two hour show for transmission every day , heres the money go fill your boots. They dont give carte blanche to production companies.
