I am reading all the threads on the new shows and noticing how many people are just deleting a SP after the pilot - or for some, not even before it ends.
Yes, I was guilty of this last year with Under the Dome and another one that is now a hit. I starting thinking about this and decided to revise my thinking for the fall season. Give it at least 3 episodes...or more even.
Are viewers turning into quick to delete without giving a show a chance to really blossom?
There have also been several shows that I wish HAD gone more than one season. Shows I really enjoyed but am not sure why others didn't - at least enough to have the studios keep them around. And of course there are the shows that I wonder about why they are STILL around.
I am wondering how many shows you gave up on and then they went on to be hits or at least on for a few seasons?
Do you give a show more than just the pilot a chance? Let them develop, grow or change at all?
