The UK, and in particular Channel 5, has an obsession with "poverty porn" reality shows where they film the scummiest of scum in Britain's poorest neighborhoods and try to push that as representative of the working class.
That and shows about bailiffs. I remember one where they went into a house on Christmas Eve and took all the kid's toys as payment of a debt.

Gotta agree. Loved the first season. Then after that it went to shit.Dexter too. Had a couple brilliant seasons and the rest were garbage.
I thought Heroes seasons 1 and 2 were great.
It was the seasons after...
Also, Dexter had a great ending: still don't agree with the buttmaddness about the ending. I think it was season 4 that lulled for me? Can't remember. One of the seasons felt like filler. But most of the show was good.
I binge Police Squad, a short live tv series on ABC that ran for 1 season, then later became the naked gun series.
I was curious why it was canceled, and the reason was pretty stupid. It was cancelled not because of bad ratings, but because the higher up thought the jokes were too much, and they fly over the viewers head.

Reminds me of this show "Square Pegs" and if u go on wiki it says it only got 1 season not cuz of ratings but cuz the teen stars were drinking and f*cking everybody.
