   Too easy, obviously.   
      
   Some people like subjecting themself to pain and misery... it   
   gives them something to complain about.

   Too many. Which is why TV shows nowadays need to be more about   
   telling a good story and keeping people engaged. If people get   
   bored halfway through a show, they'll just switch over to   
   something else, and if people really dislike a specific show,   
   they won't watch it again.   
      
   Viewer ratings are down everywhere because people have too many   
   options and they can dip-in and dip-out of TV shows to find   
   something that interests them.
