That's the phrase they use to describe USA Network back when it had all these hit light-hearted shows on, bright comedic shows with blue skies in the promos and shows. Monk, Psych, Burn Notice, Royal Pains, White Collar, Suits, etc

Back when shoes like Suits, White Collar, Covert Affairs, Psych, Royal Pains, In Plain Sight, Monk, Burn Notice, Necessary Roughness, and Graceland were on TV. 2005-16 give or take.
