   Punch TV Studios is currently seeking partners to support the vision of its Founder and CEO Joseph Collins. Despite the various challenges that currently confront the industry, television continues to maintain its hegemony as the most powerful and profitable media available to advertisers. Moreover, despite the proliferation of platforms, approximately 97.1% of American households have televisions. Additionally, opportunities for more consumer contact exist in 84.4% of households with two or more televisions. Simultaneously, multiple opportunities exist for home access to televised programming through 87.3% of homes with cell phones, 86.7% with home internet, 80.9% with personal computers, 26.3% with satellite dishes, 35% with video game systems, and 48.3% with MP3 players. Given the multiplicity of viewing options, it is less than surprising that the time spent by households viewing television programming increased to 8 hours and 21 minutes per day by the year 2009, from 4 hours in 1950. While females have the highest viewing time at 5 hours and 31 minutes per day, males follow closely behind with 4 hours and 54 minutes of daily viewing. Although these viewers are shared between broadcast affiliates, cable networks, and/or satellite distributors, broadcast television has continued to dominate. Thus, 54.3% of all advertising expenditures in 2011 were used to support the television industry. This irrefutable data recommends television as an investment opportunity with the potential for a high return to exceptional stockholders. Each of these networks began as smaller television networks that were purchased by bigger corporations, and in many cases became part of transmedia or multimedia corporations.
