If Cheers or Seinfeld started today, they would have both been cancelled after the first month. Cheers took an entire season to draw its audience and everyone hated the Seinfeld pilot. The best shows require time for the audience to get to know/like/love the characters--in today's zeitgeist of instanct ratings and instant gratification, the relationship of the audience to the characters is unable to develop.
As for Hollywood, I gave up on it years ago. All of the talent these days is in Australia and New Zealand.
