Popular also doesn't mean good. There are plenty of shows that run for years that aren't very good, but make money. Mindless entertainment sells great, but selling isn't quality, it's just moving products. And low quality cheap schlock does sell.

Depends how you define "good". I say if a lot of people enjoy it then yes, it's a good show. After all, entertainment is the primary purpose.
