Like with most TV shows that get cancelled, it's all about the ratings:\n\nViewers of the first episode: 3.2 million\nViewers 3 weeks later:  1.5 million\nViewers during the last episodes:  800,000\n\nSee the trend?

The Museum of Television and Radio collects programming -— radio shows, television programs, and commercial advertisements in both media —- and makes that programming available to the general public. \n\nIn their library you can choose a program from the collection. Then you go to watch or listen to it at a console -— individually, or with up to four people at a family console.

The same way they tell if people can see. They wave something in front of their eyes and see if they follow it or not.

Channel numbers differ from city to city accross the country.  Also, many cities have multiple providers for television service and each one decides what number each channel will go on.  Most TV guides just list the network and provide a grid so you can determine what network is on which channel.

Usually, they site that information according to a large group of people under observation. They take the number of their 'watched' households viewing certain shows and calculate the general numbers according to the percentage of their test families.\nOr, at least, that's what I've heard.
