History YMMV / Cult

* [[HilariousInHindsight/LiveActionTV Hilarious In Hindsight]]: At the end of the pilot episode of ''Cult'''s [[DuelingShows rival show]] ''Series/TheFollowing'', BigBad [[{{Chessmaster}} Joe Carrol]] gives his mission statement; "You know, my first book was... clearly too avant garde. Lost in literati pretense. Now my new story... will play to a much wider audience." On April 4th, 2013, ''Cult'' was cancelled due to a perceived lack of viewership, while ''The Following'' was renewed for a second season, thus demonstrating the validity of Carrol's belief that a straightforward tale of sex and violence would appeal to a much wider audience than a twisted {{Mind Screw}} requiring much more investment. '''''Meta beyond imagination.'''''
