Default NASA TV Coverage of Titan

Who are the folks who determine what is on NASA TV? Most of the prime time
shows are of the ISS control room. It is like watching grass grow.

Civilization landed on Titan a few days ago and the only coverage was during
the actual landing time, (which was not PRIME TIME for most of North
America). It has not been repeated as far as I know. Instead of showing
hours of an ISS control room why don't they run repeats of important events
in PRIME TIME for North America?

Why don't they do slide shows of the latest Mars Rover images that come back
every day? There are hundreds of Pancam, Navcam, Microimager etc. etc. etc.

Why don't they do the same for the Cassini pictures?

Instead we get to watch the ISS control room most of the time.

And when we do get some live Space Station imagery it is not really that
interesting. Watching people floating around in a can is not much better
than watching the ISS control room.

The imagery of the earth from outside the Space Station is cool, but they
like showing the inside of the Station much more often.

A NASA TV Progamming Manager that actually understands what Space buff's are
looking for in PRIME TIME would include the above "stuff".

Maybe someday......
