There are significant advantages and potentially lucrative outcomes to be gained from building and hosting a website as an associated side project in support of a topical TV series like "The Clinic For Well People".
The associated website can provide additional or more detailed information on topical matters touched upon in the shows and offer carefully curated "viewer support". It can complement and extend interaction with the TV show after broadcast.
