My impression is that TV show creators should have the least to complain about with regard to piracy. Advertising isn't the only revenue stream for a show, for many it's not even the biggest. DVD sales have dried up but that's a market that has only _really_ existed since 2003. Netflix and other streaming services are not only new revenue for new shows, they earn more money for old IP. Bonus: I've read that Netflix uses piracy tracker data to gauge demand and make bids, so in this way piracy literally probably increased his Netflix payout.
