Adored by the Network	comment	So you're curling up on the armchair to watch your favorite show — but the schedule has been changed and yet another airing of the network's most popular (or just favored by execs) show is airing in its place. Your blood boils, but there's nothing you can do — it's the network's pet program. This is Adored by the Network in a nutshell. An over-promoted, over-aired program that either dominates the entire schedule or gets promoted over every other show on the network or some combination of the two. Whenever networks stumble upon a massive hit show, this show usually gets the most attention and most promotion. Marathons are run, special programming events occur often surrounding the show, and the show is given multiple airings daily. This usually comes at the expense of all the other shows on the channel, particularly the shows on the verge of being canceled. At the very least, they will just be ignored. At the very worst, they can be canceled or re-tooled to make it more in line with the adored show. And at very, very, worst — it could signal the first signs of Network Decay, as the network may add more shows similar to the network darling to the lineup. Despite the network's fixation on this show, it doesn't fit the nature of being the Creator's Pet because, well, if it's a hit, then many people like it. It may be a critical darling that's loved by all. You yourself may like the show. But you also like other shows on the channel and the overbearing presence of the program just may be too much. This may lead to even the people who genuinely enjoy the show may getting sick of it. Enough of this can ironically result in the show being considered Screwed by the Network, as it can lead to the show's downfall and cancellation. As of The New '10s, the trope has exploded across all networks, due to the changing landscape of television due to the meteoric rise of streaming services. Ratings for live viewing have fallen dramatically, particularly for networks aimed towards children and young people. Most of a network's day schedule usually consists of one or two shows that are dependable for ratings and ad revenue, with premieres airing erratically. Adored By The Network has now become the de facto standard for much of television. Before you add an example, keep in mind this isn't Complaining About Shows You Don't Like. Also, the simple act of airing the show a lot of times doesn't alone qualify it for this trope. The network has to go above and beyond to prop this show up constantly. See also Marathon Running (where whole marathons can be dedicated to a single show), Cash-Cow Franchise, Hollywood Hype Machine (when this happens to actors), Creator's Pet (when this happens to characters and the fans are annoyed), Repeating Ad (when this happens to commercials), Wolverine Publicity, and Network Decay. Network to the Rescue is a sure sign of this. Contrast Screwed by the Network; also sometimes the result of this trope. See also Network Red-Headed Stepchild, Renewed Before Premiere.

Adored by the Network / int_1a4b3ea2	comment	Digimon was this for the ailing Fox Kids around the time of Digimon Adventure; the love sort of petered off by the end of Digimon Adventure 02. It was picked up by the network in order to compete with PokÃ©mon: The Series on Kids' WB! and capitalize on the anime boom. Some Saturday mornings, Digimon would air three times. It supplanted Power Rangers (circa Power Rangers Lost Galaxy) as the most popular show on the block and booted the show from its long-time schedule spots (9am EST Saturdays and 4pm EST weekdays). This still rankles long time Power Rangers fans, as it would retroactively prove to be a foreshadowing for that series sinking even lower under Disney...

Adored by the Network / int_261c8d3f	comment	Speaking of baseball, due to its then-extensive coverage of MLB's October postseason, there was a stretch of time starting around the turn of the millennium in which Fox had to delay the season premiere of many of its shows until after the end of the World Series to accommodate its coverage. This meant that fans of The Simpsons and The X-Files, for example, had to wait until November to see new episodes. Starting in 2005, the network returned to launching its major shows in September — but the Series still prevented The Simpsons' annual Halloween Episode from airing until after the holiday had come and gone. To rub salt in the wounds of American Simpsons fans disinterested in baseball, some countries even had a Short Run in Peru by airing the Treehouse of Horror a few weeks before the American airing, such as when "Treehouse of Horror XXXI" first aired on Canada's Citytv on October 18, 2020. Since 2006, almost the entire postseason is now cable-only: as of 2014, when MLB's current TV contract was signed, the Fox Sports 1 channel splits the Division Series and League Championship Series with TBS (alternating between the American League and National League each year), with the only postseason games still broadcast on "Big Fox" being the World Series and the opening game of whichever LCS Fox Sports 1 is covering. Note that even Canada isn't immune to this, given that the rightsholder to first-run Simpsons episodes there is Citytv, owned by Rogers Communications, which also owns both MLB's Toronto Blue Jays and Sportsnet, itself an example of this trope as Sportsnet is the sole rightsholder to all Toronto Blue Jays broadcasts in Canada and Sportsnet considers anything related to the Toronto Blue Jays the highest priority for them. If the Toronto Blue Jays were to make the World Series while Fox's World Series contract is active, then per simsub rules, Treehouse of Horror would also be pre-empted by the World Series on Citytv using the Fox feed, albeit with Canadian commercials, while Sportsnet would use its own broadcast.

Adored by the Network / int_2a77a546	comment	Starz also gave this treatment to Inside Out after its premiere on February 26, 2016. They aired it every single day for two weeks in a row, a feat which no new-to-the-channel Disney or Pixar movie was able to accomplish beforehand.note For example, the aforementioned Toy Story 3 seemed to air twice every four or five days, and Monsters University played once a week during its premiere. Like the Lion King example on the Disney page, they often aired the movie twice in a row, which happened the day it premiered. But after a month or so, its exposure began to taper off, so Inside Out only aired once every four days, and only during the early morning or prime time. They reversed this in September of 2016, when the movie started to air on every weekend possible (with the first airing in a while playing the same day Disney on Ice Presents Follow Your Heart - which heavily features the main characters of Inside Out - made its world premiere). It took until December 23rd for Starz Kids to bring it back into daily rotation.

Among its other favourites are Wild Wild West, Catwoman (2004), and both Incredible Hulk films. They are also well-known for constantly showing Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, to the point where even Edgar Wright himself is aware of it.

Whenever it is Christmas, there will be many showings of Love Actually each week. In the past, it would also be frequently shown outside of the festive period.

Adored by the Network / int_2baca2eb	comment	As of June 2015, the LAFF network has been devoted to airing The Love Bug and its sequels on a frequent basis. As of October 2016, Laff's go-to movies include the Chris Elliott comedy Cabin Boy and the forgotten Holy Man starring Eddie Murphy. As of July 2019, Laff's obsession appears to be the obscure indie romcoms Love's Kitchen, A Date with Miss Fortune and For the Love of George, most likely due to them being very inexpensive to air. The 80s Mark Harmon vehicle Summer School pops up almost every other weekend. And since Warner Bros. started licensing some of their movie titles to the network, every weekend Laff airs the first Police Academy movie and/or Blazing Saddles.

Persona 4 was a Breakthrough Hit (so much that Atlus USA finally stopped dolling it up with the Shin Megami Tensei brand after Persona 4: Arena). Persona 5 was an even bigger Breakthrough Hit, becoming Atlus' highest-selling title ever. All three got anime adaptations, and more merchandise than the rest of the franchise combined. To put it into perspective, when the series celebrated its 20th anniversary, the first three Persona games (1, Innocent Sin, and Eternal Punishment) were essentially footnotes. When Atlus had a panel at the 2014 anime con, it was literally just Persona 3 and Persona 4 - their other IPs didn't even get so much of a nod. This has caused somewhat of a Broken Base - people who like the first two games, people who wish Atlus would stop treating them like Canon Discontinuity, and people who like them but are getting fatigued at the constant milking.

As of July 2012, we're reaching the end of the sixth rerun of Z (if this number doesn't impress you, be wary that Italia 1 is a general-purpose channel, not an anime-only, and they air one episode per day...

After performing below expectations in its original 1995 release (due in large part to a...misguided marketing campaign), Nintendo's international branches had treated it like the company's red-headed stepchild for many years. While the series has always had representation in Super Smash Bros., neither of the other games would see an English release until 2015 when MOTHER—whose English localization had been finished since 1991—finally made it onto the WiiU's Virtual Console under the name EarthBound Beginnings. EarthBound (1994) itself had only made a Virtual Console appearance two years prior. Mother 3 is still a no-show.

Unfortunately, only the Game Boy Advance version, widely considered the weakest version, was the only one that had seen an official English version until the since-removed iOS version, which isn't thought of too fondly, either.

Adored by the Network / int_5ada53ed	comment	Whichever network(s) currently holds rerun rights to James Bond films goes crazy running them as often as possible before the tide changes. In The '90s, TBS and TNT cornered the market on marathon runs of Bond movies (to the point that there was a joke about it in American Beauty), followed by AMC for a little while at the Turn of the Millennium. After that, the status of "James Bond Network" rotated between Spike, the Encore movie networks (at least three times, the main channel showed a different one every night in prime time for a month, while sister channels Action, Suspense, etc. got in on the fun by sprinkling the films throughout their schedules), and G4. As of 2016, they're being batted between MGM HD, BBC America, and, to a smaller extent, ION Television. Note that this package generally covers the first 20 films plus the unofficial entry Never Say Never Again, so even if networks have to split them up, they aren't just rerunning 3-4 films over and over. Daniel Craig-era Bond movies seem to have been handed over to USA Network after it decided to retire its longstanding status as The Mummy Network! In the UK, ITV had them from 1975 through 2012, when they were acquired by the premium channel Sky Movies. They then took Adored by the Network to its obvious conclusion in October 2012 by turning one of its channels into Sky Movies 007, dedicated exclusively to airing the films (and other documentaries/behind the scenes features) in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Bond movie franchise and the release of Skyfall. The channel was temporarily taken down in November 2012 to make way for its annual all-Christmas movies channel but came back off and on throughout 2013. ITV has since got the rights back.

Adored by the Network / int_5ae0b268	comment	TNA on Challenge in the UK certainly seemed to be this at one point- they couldn't stop talking about it over the end credits of every programme (usually re-runs of game shows, some of which might not necessarily share the same audience as that TNA wrestling would appeal to). After the company was bought by Anthem Sports and Entertainment, the company's programming has become a mainstay on "Live TV" streaming services targeting cord-cutters (that is, people who want to stop paying for cable), such as Pluto TV, Fubo, and YouTube TV. All of these services have dedicated TNA channels, and in some cases they're the only wrestling content available on the basic tier (or even at all). This makes sense from a business standpoint for both the streaming services and TNA. The apps, who want to air wrestling as part of an "all-in-one" entertainment package, get a large library of programming and name recognition that's leagues cheaper than other companies who have exclusivity deals with certain networks and companies (such as the WWE's deals with Fox and Comcast and AEW's deal with Warner). TNA, meanwhile, gets a wider reach: in a lot of countries their programming is either on higher-tier cable package or doesn't air at all, meaning that these deals are a good way to get the company's programming in places where it doesn't air.

(The one StarCraft product in the making, Ghost, became Vapor Ware.) Lately, they've completely flipped this trope on the head, and seem to be just gushing new games — Reaper of Souls, Hearthstone, and Heroes of the Storm all within a year of each other. In the late '90s, this seemed to be the reverse case for Blizzard, with all their efforts directed towards Starcraft + Expansions, and Diablo 2 + Expansions. Other than an upgraded re-release of Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness that allowed you to play on Battle.net, Warcraft wasn't getting much love until Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos was finally released.

Adored by the Network / int_6aa99066	comment	Farsight Studios, the creators of The Pinball Arcade, seem to adore the games from Williams Electronics, and three designers in particular: Pat Lawlor, Steve Ritchie, and Barry Oursler. Somewhat justified in all three cases, as they are widely considered the top pinball designers of the modern era. For Lawlor, he's the co-leader with Ritchie for the most representation in The Pinball Arcade with nine games total. For starters, he has one game in the core pack download from his days at Stern (Ripley's Believe It or Not!), then three games from his time at Williams in Season 1 (FunHouse (1990), Twilight Zone, and No Good Gofers). Season 2 adds another Williams game from him (Whirlwind) and Season 3 is Lawlor free, but Season 4 more than makes up for it with four games from him (They are, in release order, Earthshaker!, The Addams Family, Red & Ted's Road Show, and Safe Cracker). As of July 2015, the only game Lawlor made at Williams that isn't in The Pinball Arcade is Banzai Run, and Word of God indicates that we may see it in the future. For Ritchie, the first three DLC seasons had two games each from him. Season 1 has Black Knight and Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 2 had Firepower and Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and Season 3 had Black Knight 2000 and High Speed. A game from Ritchie was nowhere to be found in Season 4 (likely due to Lawlor overload), but Season 5 makes up for it with three of the first four games coming from him, including The Getaway: High Speed II, F-14 Tomcat and No Fear: Dangerous Sports. For Oursler, there's at least one game from him in each DLC season. Season 1 had Gorgar, Season 2 had Pin Bot, Season 3 had WHO dunnit (1995) and Junk Yard, and Season 4 had Bram Stoker's Dracula,Cyclone and JackBot. A recent leak indicated that Hurricane will be added during Season 5. For those counting, yes, Season 4 had 7/10 games from Oursler and Lawlor combined. The other three games were Phantom Of The Opera (from Joe Kaminkow), Starship Troopers (also from Kaminkow), and Xenon (from Greg Kmiec). John Trudeau currently has three games (Victory, Creature from the Black Lagoon and The Machine: Bride of PinBot), with one more (Judge Dredd) hinted at for a December 2015 release and another (TX-Sector) semi-confirmed through a leak. On a lesser note, The Pinball Arcade has four games from Jon Norris (Tee'd Off, Cue Ball Wizard, Lights... Camera... Action!, and High Roller Casino), five games from Dennis Nordman (Elvira and the Party Monsters , Dr. Dude, The Party Zone, White Water, and Scared Stiff) and three each from Joe Kaminkow ( the aforementioned Phantom of the Opera and Starship Troopers, plus Space Shuttle from Season 2), Mark Ritchie (Taxi, Diner and Fish Tales), and John Popadiuk (Theater Of Magic, Tales of the Arabian Nights-both of which are in the core pack- and Cirqus Voltaire).

Adored by the Network / int_6dcfae40	comment	The Inhumans were heavily pushed by Marvel in the 2010s, receiving big promotional pushes and involvement in crossover events. This stems from Marvel not owning the film rights to the X-Men, thus Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter wanting to use the Inhumans in their place as the naturally superpowered minority allegory. Although their film was scheduled to be developed, increased awareness of the brand and more stories to draw on for adaptations and merchandise was required, as well as more popularity in general given how obscure they are, and so they were given more shots than would normally be warranted given just how poorly they sold (their sales were usually always under the usual Marvel/DC cancellation threshold). This subsided when the Inhumans' TV adaptation bombed, the film rights to the X-Men were reacquired and Marvel was eventually restructured to minimise Perlmutter's influence, which saw an almost instantaneous decrease in the Inhumans' promotion. Media outside of comics that began production after the return of the X-Men film rights noticeably lacks prominent Inhumans elements, with even their Breakout Character Kamala Khan, being introduced into the MCU with the Inhumans elements removed. The last episode of Ms. Marvel (2022) even reveals that she's a mutant.

Croshaw eventually resigned from The Escapist in 2023 (along with every other creator since added to the site, this time voluntarily) following the sudden firing of then editor-in-chief Nick Calandra, all regrouping on the newly-formed, employee-owned network Second Wind, with Zero Punctuation being relaunched as a Creator-Driven Successor, Fully Ramblomatic (a result of The Escapist owning the Zero Punctuation IP). This was done both as a show of solidarity, but also because of his increasing disillusionment with The Escapist, which included frustrations of having to carry the site following its earlier mass exodus.

Despite Superman being the defining superhero, it's Batman who is the most pushed by DC, up to the point that the company is literally named after the comic that he debuted in. Any Bat-Event will usually be billed as the big event, and more often than not, the Bat-books (Batman, Batgirl, Nightwing, etc.) will outnumber the collective total of every other Justice Leaguer. This was especially noticeable during the New 52 reboot, when DC wanted to have 52 titles... and filled out 25% of the lineup with Bat-books, either starring Batman himself in a starring or supporting role, or showcasing several characters related to him, leaving other characters scrambling to be noticed in any way, shape, or form. This is also noticeable in terms of the creative teams — more often than not, DC will put popular and big-name writers on the Bat-books.

Adored by the Network / int_a0ae470	comment	Before Disney Channel, Disney XD and ABC Family aired the movie, Starz and Encore's kid's channels seemed to be quite fond of Toy Story 3. Starz Kids also adores Astro Boy. Starz also gave this treatment to Inside Out after its premiere on February 26, 2016. They aired it every single day for two weeks in a row, a feat which no new-to-the-channel Disney or Pixar movie was able to accomplish beforehand.note For example, the aforementioned Toy Story 3 seemed to air twice every four or five days, and Monsters University played once a week during its premiere. Like the Lion King example on the Disney page, they often aired the movie twice in a row, which happened the day it premiered. But after a month or so, its exposure began to taper off, so Inside Out only aired once every four days, and only during the early morning or prime time. They reversed this in September of 2016, when the movie started to air on every weekend possible (with the first airing in a while playing the same day Disney on Ice Presents Follow Your Heart - which heavily features the main characters of Inside Out - made its world premiere). It took until December 23rd for Starz Kids to bring it back into daily rotation. Ever since December 2018, the channel has aired the An American Tail movies every other day, sometimes twice in the same day.

It showed as part of the program for eight years in a row. This was likely because (up until 2012) the program paired G-rated movies with PG-rated ones, the fact Regal didn't show Disney movies as part of the program (as is standard procedure with free or cheap kids' summer movie programs of this type) and because G-rated movies were becoming rare at the time.

As of 2017, the cable rights to The Lego Movie belong to Time Warner's networks. Nowadays, you can expect one of the older DreamWorks films that aren't on the FX channels anymore, to be shown on here. Other popular choices right now include Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip, and The Peanuts Movie Come 2020, and the same situation seems to still stand for its sequel. Spies in Disguise, and PokÃ©mon Detective Pikachu are also becoming frequent showings. This is likely due in part to an increasing dearth of new-release family movies heading to HBO, with Warner Bros. Animation and the now-defunct Blue Sky Studios being the only reliable providers*while most Universal movies make their cable premieres on HBO, Dreamworks Animation titles are licensed to Hulu and Peacock while Illumination Entertainment films are licensed to Netflix.

Adored by the Network / int_bc7736c8	comment	Suicide Squad has been pushed to a degree far surpassing its sales totals. Prior to 2011, there had only been one ongoing Suicide Squad series that ran for a respectable 66 issues in the late 80s and early 90s, but it was given a huge push by The New 52. Counting New Suicide Squad, there have been five Suicide Squad ongoings since that period—each time the book falls below a threshold that most books would get cancelled at, it simply relaunches with a new creative team. It also has a noticeably outsized presence in events, most notably Justice League vs. Suicide Squad, which by its very name puts the team on level pegging with DC's traditional A-listers. This isn't even mentioning cross-media projects, such as the team getting a live-action film adaptation, multiple direct-to-video animated films, and a big-budget video game from the same studio as the Arkham games. This is despite the fact that it's never been an especially strong seller—for instance, its first post-New 52 series, a year after launch, sold only slightly more than Justice League International, which was cancelled that same month and has yet to return since.

Perhaps the most noteworthy example was Dora and the Lost City of Gold, which not only got the usual "trailer on every family-oriented movie" and Regal Crown Club treatment, but it was also the sponsor for that year's Stars of Hope program, had featurettes play in the Noovie preshow, was featured in their 2019 Regal Unlimited ad and even had the trailer play on several movies not aimed at families, most notably Hobbs & Shaw.

Adored by the Network / int_d1ba9927	comment	The Carol Danvers incarnation of Captain Marvel. Because Marvel have historically lacked prominent superheroines whose film rights they owned, the 2010s saw Carol Danvers adopt the Captain Marvel moniker and receive a huge push as their flagship female character. She has since never been without a solo series, was put on more than a few teams, and usually was an important figure in their events. This is probably due in part to the massive appeal Carol (and her merch) have outside of traditional monthly comics sales, with many people owning t-shirts, jackets, water bottles, and other official paraphenalia bearing her logo. The company loves her and continue to market her as their main female character at the expense of most other, more well-established characters like Invisible Woman and Storm (although these are usually chalked up to Marvel giving more and more exposure to The Avengers at the expense of the FF and the X-Men as the decade went on, due to the aforementioned lack of movie rights). It's also possible that this is due to rights concerns with DC, as both companies have used the Captain Marvel name, but copyright law dictates that there can only be one comic called Captain Marvel; meaning if Marvel doesn't put one out, DC might and Marvel wouldn't be able to use the name as a comic title anymore (and unlike with DC's Captain Marvel, there's no easy alternative name).

Adored by the Network / int_d36053d7	comment	Dragon Ball Z Kai was this for Nicktoons, with anywhere from three to six hours worth being shown on any given day in total. It got to the point where Nicktoons began airing the original Dragon Ball Z movies in an almost completely uncut format, with the only real edit being a Hitler scene in Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn. All blood, violence, and profanity were kept, at a TV-Y7-FV rating no less.

Adored by the Network / int_d4e486c7	comment	Ironically, once Dota 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive released, they quickly took over as the company's main focus, to the point of eventually abandoning Team Fortress 2 itself to updates that consist solely of community-made content. Infamously, this led to the game being overrun by bots that would blatantly cheat and votekick any real humans that tried to join, rendering it completely unplayable unless you had a private server to play on.

Adored by the Network / int_d5ddd6c1	comment	PokÃ©mon: The Series for Kids' WB!. Sometimes they would show nothing but the show to promote a special or new movie, and they'd sometimes show it for three hours at a time. Cartoon Network and Disney XD don't do this nearly as often. Kids WB's adoration for all things PokÃ©mon even spilled into their promotional attempts for other shows in their lineup. During a Batman Beyond-themed Y2K event, viewers were encouraged to send in their predictions of the future to be read on the air. One of the more notable entries: "In the future, PokÃ©mon will be on every channel all day long." The dreams of someone truly obsessed with the series, or an early example of epic trolling?

Adored by the Network / int_e5d4040a	comment	ARMS has been shown a lot of love from Nintendo. Revealed during the Nintendo Switch Presentation in January 2017 and confirmed to be releasing only a few months after the Switch launched, Nintendo advertised the hell out of it, holding tournaments, an open beta, and even dedicating an entire Nintendo Direct to it. Most of this is likely due to the fact that Splatoon has released only a couple years prior, and Nintendo was eager to promote new IPs after Splatoon ended up being a Sleeper Hit. While ARMS didn't reach the same levels of success as Splatoon did, it nonetheless accumulated a dedicated community, and Nintendo continued to show interest in the game in the year afterwards, most notably by including Min Min as DLC for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
