I wouldn't say that the public watches bad shows, as good and bad are different to different types based on perception. I would say though that in general with a few exceptions, that the public likes simple shows. Reality TV fits the bill while alot of other shows with complex storylines are passed over.
I find all these save the show petitions rather amusing, you shouldn't be appealing to the network to save a show, you should be appealing to the rest of the stupid public to get those viewership numbers up. Whether a show lives or dies is a function of whether the network thinks they can put a show which generates more viewers in a better demographic then the show in the time slot at the time. If they do, no amount of peanuts, nerf footballs etc is going to save the show.
