Ten new television shows appeared during the month of September. Five of the shows were sitcoms, three were hour-long dramas, and two were news-magazine shows. By January, only seven of these new shows were still on the air. Five of the shows that remained were sitcoms. Correct Answer At least one of the shows that was cancelled was an hour-long drama.

The fact that all of the sitcoms remained does not necessarily mean that viewers prefer sitcoms (choice d).
