  • B
    Only one of the drama show is still on
  • C
    At least one discontinued show was a drama
  • D
    Viewers prefer sitcoms over drama

Answer

Correct Answer: At least one discontinued show was a drama

Explanation

No reason is provided for discontinuation of any programme. Hence, option (d) is not correct. Three shows were discontinued. As no sitcoms shows were discontinued, they must be either drama or news magazine. Now, there were only two news magazines. So, at least one discontinued show was a drama. Hence, option (c) is correct.
