You tell me: Game of Thrones, Warehouse 13, Chopped, Longmire, all on cable.

Versus: Two and a half men, Big Bang Theory, Modern family, on broadcast.

Less popular but far better: Castle, Grimm, Terra Nova (cancelled!), House (ended)

Mass media tends to the lowest common denominator so proliferation and fragmentation arguably opens the door to a better breed of show if the producers don't have (to pander) to try to reach every last potential viewer.
