They are completely tiresome - but
- the programme audience may have money to give
- at that time of day TV advertising costs are very cheap
- the TV channels can feel worthy and doing their "bit" for the disadvantaged
- you can always switch it off
When I retired I watched quite a lot of daytime TV - but when you know the script and storyline for pretty much every programme on Dave, Quest, Yesterday, Drama etc you are more likely to find something useful to do.
