TrishFan Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Does anyone know if there are benefits/disadvantages to holding your TV show live? For example, does it cost more if you show it live rather than tape it? TrishFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyde Hill Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 None as far as I know maybe live get better ratings vs taped can be moved around the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in all, It would be great to know if there really was a benefit/disadvantage of having a Live show or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takertitan Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Adam has stated before that live events tend to get slightly better tv ratings than taped shows. basically, if RAW and Smackdown where both shown on USA at the same time of the day, RAW would win becauses its live.

infinitywpi Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 It would be nice to bring back the concept of hiring production staff; maybe having a kick-arse editor would let you raise the grade of bad matches, provided they were taped (say, being able to turn a E+ stinker into a D passable match if you've got them on the payroll). Or certain wrestlers could, instead of saying "I like working against guys smaller than me" coudl say "I prefer working live" or "I prefer working taped."
