“The Rival Networks is a standalone two-player version of The Networks. You and your opponent are new television networks, and you need new programming. For this, you’ll need Shows, Stars, and Ads. Finally, shows age and viewers lose interest, so you have to keep your line-up fresh by canceling shows and sending them into reruns. Fortunately, you can get viewers from your reruns, and you’ll get bonuses if you get a lot of shows of the same genre throughout the game. ”
