Basically, at this point for TV, you want to be on Netflix, Amazon, or HBO and so far Sony is doing a good job with that with the exception of Twisted Metal, which never seemed that plausible, to begin with.
Most TV shows fail, so ultimately Sony is going to be happy if they can get one or two hits here.
PlayStation Productions is in its infancy. These shows getting 2nd and 3rd seasons will be the judge of their early success.
