A crime drama gets fan interest and people care but the 0815-comedy show gets forgotten?
The article also forgets to mention that Doll & Em is a british comedy while True Detective is an american show, cultural differences can easily lead to the former being disregarded (stereotype about british humor here).
That’s a great piece. Non-male creations face a steeper climb to cultural relevance. I’m reminded of that story about witches and wizards by Joanne Rowling. The success Joanne, better known as J.K. Rowling, had with Harry Potter was monumental but I wonder if her work would have had a harder time breaking through if it was more obviously written by a woman.

Or Hitchhiker’s Guide To the Galaxy?
The gender analysis seems stronger than a “national differences” analysis.
I don't see the gender analysis being stronger considering we have two data points.
