If we redistributed all excess wealth perpetually they wouldn't exist anymore and we would stop treating them like kings and gods.
Then we'd find another way to identify the top of the social heirarchy and watch shows about them
It would be about the smart people who forward the human race and they would get credit for it.
Do yourself a favour and watch Son of a Critch..

I get it, but look at it this way, most of those shows do not show the rich and powerful in a flattering light E.g. Succession. So you could interpret it as Hollywood trying to shatter the glitz and glamor persona that the rich have always enjoyed.
There's so much low-hanging fruit regarding topics and themes TV could be written about, but those are all "mundane" and not glamorous. The Pitt might be the closest thing to seeing normal people in a prestige show (not sure if it's considered prestige but at least it's getting a lot of attention).
For example, you could write a great drama or comedy about people moving away from a big city to work remotely from home in a small town.
