Basically this election was a proxy match between Modern Family and Duck Dynasty.

What's with Once Upon a Time being so popular with Mormons?

Vampire Diaries, Supernatural, So You Think You Can Dance, AFHV, Mythbusters, and The Tonight Show also all do well with Mormons. SYTYCD and AFHV are no-brainers for Mormon support, but it appears Mormons have a thing for fairy tales/fantasy/supernatural type shows that aren't "too edgy" for them like Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead.

Also not surprised Mormons like nice guy Jimmy Fallon, esp if they're watching him instead of edgy Colbert or sinful Kimmel.

Basically this election was a proxy match between Modern Family and Duck Dynasty.
Actually it was Family Guy vs Duck Dynasty

due to Modern Family being very much a white person show.


I ain't White and I love the show.

It's unbelievably depressing that literally every show mentioned in your post is reality TV, unless that was part of your point.

If you are referring to my point, yes it was deliberate.....

The Trumpster ran as a reality TV superstar, but yet much of the audience (and most coveted rating demographics) are Millennials that aren't big fans at all....

Tons of Americans watch reality TV shows, and Duck Dynasty was a flagship show for A&E that has become a major profit-loss, instead of the profit-center that it was in the first few seasons.

Not only do few advertisers want to touch the show because of the controversial statements made by "Grandpa Duck" and a few of the Brothers on the show, but the audience no longer is interested in watching a piece of c**p programming that has long outlived it's natural lifespan, and has absolutely nothing remaining in the way of originality or drama, unlike their first few seasons....

Honestly, I'm surprised that anyone watches the show anymore and even that it was still recently on television.... give me some Househunters or a new season of Real Housewives of "fill in the blank" and I'll spend time on Atlas, while looking over once in awhile when my wife has them on the TV.

True. It was a huge deal back in 2012-2013. Shortly after Phil Robertson made controversial comments I went to a store and they had to put Duck Dynasty stuff on 50% discounts. This was in rural Texas mind you.

I wonder what the map would be like for Stephen Colbert's Late Show, SportsCenter, The Office, Mad Men, House of Cards, and Fuller House

My guess. Bunch of white people.

SportsCenter has a large African American viewership.
