The form endures because it is so simple. It's cheap and easy to put
together and the only way to fail is to hire the wrong on camera people.
And if you figure out you have a person who is not working out, replace
them and move on. I don't know what the writer expects in terms of changing
the format. The only real innovation in sports commentary is advanced
statistical analysis. But even a show that incorporates it will still look
like a studio show with a display for stats in the background.
