What is the most important thing for a TV Show to have?

[djgeneral]

What is the biggest factor for a TV show to have? Are there any missing from this list? Here are some of the biggest factors people use to determine what shows to watch.

Star power - Maybe they don't like the concept, but their favorite actor/actress is part of it, so they are watching.

Acting abilities - Let's be honest, some shows can't afford lavish production values or star power, but some up-and-coming actors are some of the most "hungry" and actually try to produce a quality product.

Writing- Maybe you can't stand the people in the show, but the writing is so good you want to keep watching, and give the actors another chance.

Directing - A popular director, or a show with an established "direction" can really lure viewers in.

Production values - A lot of complaints from cheap CGI (Once Upon A Time anyone?) can turn someone off, but shows like Game Of Thrones draw some viewers in just for the production values.

Time slot - This might not sound important, but in this day and age, it really is. With so many shows on, some people choose what they watch based on the time slot it is in.
