Generally speaking, the rule is not to use words of more than two syllables or sentences of more than seven words. TV producers (not audiences) have trouble with big words or just lots of words.

Do you work in TV? Sorry; I was just taking an easy shot: I'm always doing shtick and not a lot of what I say here is intended the least bit seriously.
