Seriously, I began watching Go On a few months ago because it was promoted during the Olympics. I think it's great. But if it gets canceled because of lack of viewership, oh well. It's the job of both the show and network to keep a show going.
You realize Go On is pretty much a blatant rip off of Community, with all of the rough edges sanded off? I don't mind Go On, but I can see why it gets better ratings -- it is aggressively mediocre. So much of what is on TV, even during this the Golden Age, is intentionally bland mediocrities. They are designed to entertain with a minimal amount of engagement from the viewer.
It is precisely the things which make a show bad that will get it better ratings. People, as a group, want bland things that are not challenging. That's why Applebee's is a more popular restaurant than that really good Thai place on the corner.
