Eh, be careful about saying "most shows" when you mean "most Western live-action TV shows".
And it seems pretty natural that someone who was femslashing in SGA (sci-fi adventures on another planet with tech so advanced it's practically magical) isn't necessarily going to come to Bunheads (mundane real-world story of a bunch of ballerinas) just for the femslash potential, you know? Whereas I bet you wouldn't have much trouble getting them to check out Doctor Who.
I've sure never been hooked by the summary of Bunheads. Whereas if you tell me the ballerinas are magical shapeshifters, they do dance-offs over the fate of someone's soul, and it's the kind of universe where the narrator sometimes drops into the story to yell at the characters, and the two main female characters have this amazing tragic rivalshipping potential, well! Sign me up and show me where to buy the box set.
