I've finally come up with a working theory why US studios always cancel the really good TV series.
It goes like this:
In order to cut off point 3, and therefore maintain the viability of series B and C, and ensure that they can continue to produce worthless pap for eternity, Studio gives series A the chop.
Alternately it could just be that all the really crap series blur into one, and we therefore only notice when the good ones get canned.
It goes like this:
- Studio makes TV series A, B, and C.
- A turns out to be really good, whereas B and C are the usual pap.
- Public realises that series A is really really good and it makes series B and C look like the worthless crap they are.
- Ratings for series B and C plummit, public starts expecting Studio to continue putting out shows on the level of A.
In order to cut off point 3, and therefore maintain the viability of series B and C, and ensure that they can continue to produce worthless pap for eternity, Studio gives series A the chop.
