Sadly quality isn't what makes movies and tv shows popular. Films like Jurassic World, Transformers or (and I imagine I could get shot down on here for this opinion) the Marvel franchise are properly bad films and add little to cinema, yet they're the films that make the most money. I guess the same sort of logic can be applied to soaps, where mind numbingly bad storylines, dialogue and cinematography appear to generally be what the majority of people pay to watch! Simple, uncomplicated entertainment e.g. well known giant muscly green mutant slamming a god into a wall is what sells.
