Sure, but they've canceled plenty of shows before they had a chance to become successful. Or made shows that had the potential to be successful and then quietly released them at 4am on a Tuesday with no marketing. Or both.

People forget that a lot of the Golden Age Prestige TV Classics weren't that big when they first started (or, in the case of The Wire, were NEVER all that big, ratings wise).
