Part of me thinks it would be a high improvement to our culture if a show like this caught on but... a)I don't think there would be enough people who appreciate this kind of thing enough to vote about it. And b) even if they did, poetry's such a wonderfully subjective thing, it might just further serve to box in definitions of what-poetry-should-be in an 'objective' way, and possibly even turn personal poetry into something way more commercialized then pureness finds necessary. Though, then again, knowing the way the universe ebbs and flows and such, maybe that would cause such a backlash there would be new genres of counterculture poetry to emerge.
But once again, this is probably just fantasy for another possible world with a different past, not something that will likely again emerge here, at least not any time soon. (or at least not in a fashion that will sustain itself rather than get rejected within a few episodes.)
