AT&T has decided to drop Esquire Network, the channel that carries Team Ninja Warrior, accounting for about 15 million subscribers.

Esquire’s reality/lifestyle programming includes “Friday Night Tykes,” “American Ninja Warrior,” “Team Ninja Warrior,” “Car Matchmaker,” “Wrench Against The Machine,” and “Joyride.”
