After early success in the reality realm with unscripted series like Survivor, CBS' latest offerings include failures like Kid Nation and Great American Dog. Now Ghen Maynard, the Network's executive vice president for alternative programming, is taking the fall. Maynard, who will segue into a first-look producing pact with CBS (nyse: CBS - news - people ) after stepping down from his current position late last week, is credited with convincing CBS Chief Executive Leslie Moonves to take a chance on the controversial Swedish concept Survivor some eight years ago. The series proved a ratings juggernaut for the Network--28.2 million viewers tuned in for the first season--and pioneered the modern reality form and the product placement opportunities that came with it. Next came enduring hits The Amazing Race and Big Brother. But recently, Maynard's name has been attached to a slew of less successful series, including Pirate Master (Mark Burnett's pirate-themed competition show ), Kid Nation (a highly controversial Lord of the Flies-style series ) and Greatest American Dog ( American Idol meets Big Brother--with canines). CBS declined to comment for this story. ... Source: www.cstv.com --- 1 day ago

Filed under: Consumer experience , Television , Competitive strategy , Marketing and advertising , CBS Corp 'B' (CBS) This post is one in a series on prominent company nicknames . See all 25 , and share your thoughts and memories about the Tiffany Network below in the comments. If CBS Corp. 's (NYSE: CBS ) nickname The Tiffany Network were newly coined, I'd speculate that it referred to the long history of Tiffany's, and how the current CBS viewing public had probably begun shopping there back in the '20s. If the company has a more recently gained nickname, it would be the silver (-haired) Network, due to the skewing of its viewership toward the geezer crowd . In reality, the Tiffany moniker hearkens back to the CBS of radio's heyday and the early days of television. With the likes of Edward R. Murrow reporting from London during the Blitz, Orson Wells scaring the bejebus out of listeners with his broadcast of The War of the Worlds , the hit multi-cultural comedy I Love Lucy , and the iconic western Gunsmoke , the Network's reputation for quality was once as glittering as one of Tiffany's diamond-pavéd bracelets. How the mighty have fallen. CBS, with debacles such as the Katie Couric news anchor stint, now lags behind Fox in weekly ratings. The Tiffany Network is part of a massive entertainment company with fingers in television (66% of revenues), radio (remember radio?) (12%), outdoor advertising (16%), and publishing (6%). Yes, ...
