"Trio is meant to be a very forward-looking channel," said its president, Lauren Zalaznick, a former VH1 programmer who will philosophize at the drop of a shoe.
It would be easy to infer that Zalaznick's affection for artistically advanced but commercially unviable TV stems from the fact that her own channel has been in imminent peril virtually from the day she signed on in early 2002.
Were Trio to be carried in 40 million or 50 million homes instead of 20 million, it could attract that many viewers regularly and have a permanent place on the nation's channel lineup.

Trio is super cool to watch, yet prohibitively expensive since it's buried in cable's most expensive digital package with almost nothing else of interest to any person who would be a fan of Trio.
Thus, instead of paying a dollar or two a month to watch Trio in an a la carte system, a Trio fan essentially has to shell out about forty dollars a month for the digital premium package to watch it.
Broadcasting 24 hours a day to almost nobody, with a pittance to spend on programs, Trio has won over smart, sophisticated viewers who managed to find it on their digital cable boxes.
