Graveyard slot

Okay kiddo, so sometimes on TV or the radio, there are certain times of day when not a lot of people are watching or listening. This is usually really late at night or really early in the morning. We call these times the "graveyard slot" because it's like the time when everyone else is sleeping or resting in their graves.

Why is this important to know? Well, sometimes TV shows or radio programs that aren't as popular have to be put in the graveyard slot because there's not enough space for them during the busier times. It's kind of like how you have to play with your toys in a certain spot because there's not enough room in your room for everything to be out all the time.

It can be tough for TV shows or radio programs in the graveyard slot because not as many people are watching or listening, which means they might not get as much attention or make as much money. But sometimes these shows can surprise people by becoming really popular despite being in the graveyard slot. It's like how some toys might get hidden in the back of your toy box, but once you find them and start playing with them, you realize how cool they are!
