It is likely that most of the new television programs Wilke & Wilke produce for this season will be canceled. Most of the new shows they produced last season were canceled due to insufficient viewership. Furthermore, their new shows are all police dramas, and few police dramas have been popular in recent years.

Which one of the following, if true, most helps to strengthen the argument?

(A) Wilke & Wilke have produced more new shows for this season than they produced last season. - WRONG. More shows or less or not, it is irrelevant.

(B) Most of the shows that Wilke & Wilke produced last year were police dramas. - WRONG. A strong contender at the first read. But its wrong since it makes a blanket statement which is irrelevant. We are only concerned of shows that were canceled not all; all shows being police dramas is far from any consideration.

(C) None of the shows that Wilke & Wilke produced last year that were not canceled were police dramas. - WRONG. Toughest of the all the choices because of double negatives. But it diverts from the core of the argument as it takes on the other side of the aspect(shows that were NOT canceled).

(D) All of the new shows that Wilke & Wilke produced last year that were canceled were police dramas.

(E) None of the most popular television shows last year were police dramas. - WRONG More importantly it does not deals specifically with canceled ones. It makes blanket statement, like E, that is not necessarily true. Thus does not supports the argument.

Answer D.
