I think it is bullshit to say that there is little or no appreciation for quality. I think it is far more reasonable to say that there are a lot of producers who are lazy, and these producers apparently don't care to sensibly market their shows when it requires more than exploiting a movie or song catalog and a thought process more taxing than accepting the monumentally insipid ad campaign that they were presented. If I were to decide whether or not to see this show based on the ad, I would run the other way. You are right that there is more to it than that, but that is enough to kill its prospects.
