> Money they take out of their budget to keep TBBT in their library is money they can no longer spend to keep shows that I, personally, care for alive.

On the same token, money spent keeping TBBT on the network reduces customer churn and increases earnings, which can be invested in other shows.

TBBT is the symptom, not the problem. Netflix would be delighted to not pay CBS a fortune every year. The problem is that Netflix doesn't have enough customers whose tastes skew towards your own.

And another way of putting that is "I find it depressing how many people watch TBBT (compared to shows I prefer)"
