    I wonder if this works for TV shows.

    I know plenty of people who like all/most of Firefly, The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Dollhouse, Defying Gravity, Almost Human, etc.

    All shows that got cancelled after a season or two because they failed to attract a wide enough audience.

    How about "Defying Gravity"?

    IMHO, it was at least as good as the endless Cop permutations on the tube. Probably better. It still bombed.

    People like the cop,doctor,lawyer shows because they are all the same. They don't have to trouble their brains loading a new context. Its just the same show over and over with a slight ratcheting of the shock value of the crimes and or medical problems. Toss in a "very special episode" dealing with some social problem du jour and you've got it done without much effort from viewer of producer.
