abstract | - Prime-time programming consisted of gladiator fights supervised by local government officials such as Proconsul Claudius Marcus and First Citizen Merikus. State executions were a recurring feature on its flagship program, Name the Winner These programs were supported by commercial sponsorship from various concerns such as automobile manufacturers; for example, the Jupiter 8 was among the products advertised on the network. Good ratings were as valued by Empire TV personnel as they were by their Earth counterparts. Though produced on a sound stage, the impression of a live audience was created by means of recorded cheering and hisses from a crowd; again, this practice was not dissimilar to television productions on Earth of the 1960s.
