On the other side of the coin, everyone thought The9ine and SixDegrees would take off.
I see it as an investment, because even those shows that don't become hits initially, and run only one season, still have some followers that become like a cult around that show. I can imagine that something related to Star Trek for example, makes a lot of money with all those closeted trekkies all over the world!
