According to the laconic page, Deader Than Disco is "A once-popular work or creator comes to be better known for its Hatedom, or for the backlash against it, than for its merits."

Can it apply to a show when the creator/major actor(s) in that show become the center of controversy many years after it ends?

Relevant example: The Cosby Show
