How do you measure the success of a TV show or movie?

1 - Money earned by showing it.

2 - Money made by showing it.

It's the very definition of success.


Only if $$$ is your criteria for merit. As an example, most of the prime
time productions on PBS are far superior in every way to everything
produced for prime time by the broadcast networks, yet the PBS stations
and producers don't earn the big bucks for their work. They do, however,
attract the audience with the best brains.

Oh please.

I'm not sure why, but this triggered recall of some recent trivia:
28% of "americans" were able to recognize 1 of 5 "Rights" in contrast to 52%
of "americans" were able to discuss Simpson episodes in depth.
