...ever paid to get a favorite show, which was cancelled, to produce another episode? (imaginary example: Bill Gates likes Jericho, so when it's cancelled, he pays for season 3 to be produced) Ever happen in real life?
 
Didn’t Ted Turner payed for season 5 of Babylon 5 because we was a fan?


That's probably the best example, but he was already in the business with a few television stations at his disposal, so it may not exactly be the same thing. Besides most of the profits it brought in, such as advertising dollars, just went right back into his pocket.
 
Didn't the people that designed SpaceShipOne donate their prize money to trying to get Enterprise Season 5?
