Reflecting on it, this would work better as
DAREDEVIL: SHOWTIME!
A couple more thoughts on sex, drama, humor and style.
These are just good possible hooks for attention and the stories to tell. Of course a painter doesn’t need drama and no politician should tell stories about his sexlife, but sex appeal or sublimated tensions won’t hurt. Humor and style though are kinda universal.
Sex captivates and can easily hold the attention.
Similar to a lot of stocktraders that are incredibly susceptible to rumors, hypetrains and emotions but put all these in very serious looking graphs and memos, is the art scene often very open to the artistic value of black and white p*rn, sorry, erotica. No matter what, it definitely guarantees you and your work a first inquiring look and that is so much more than most art will get.
Drama. These are the storylines to tell. Reality shows are so incredibly successful, because they tell seamingly real, often messy stories. We are all oversaturated with the plots and dialogues, we have seen in films and movies gazillion times. This will get even more important in the days of AI.
It is a high art to tell stories with different media. How to tease right, how to use the summer lull to get on the frontpage, when to show yourself and how and when to vanish for a while. It requires a high degree of empathy and dramatic understanding where a story stands emotionally at every moment and the complete absence of stagefright. Reading the audience is incredibly important for anyone on a stage.
Humor is IMO the most important part. It is the get-out-of-jail-free-card in public discussions. If you ever followed a chat with a comedian who stands for public office and he is nailed down by a tough question, he brings a landing joke, the audience laughs and the question is settled without being answered. If you can bring snappy oneliners, your quote or interview is printed. If you can implement humor into your art even better. (As mentioned in a different thread: A banana ducktaped to a wall (with precise instructions when to change the banana) was a piece of art and a joke and it was auctioned off for 2.000.000$.) Humor is the crowbar to social and cultural rules. Properly used you can get away with pretty much anything and be praised for it.
Style. Not so much beauty but being recognizable, be it your fashion sense or art style and your trademarks. Larger than life stories and appearance help too.
Not entirely sure, why I had the strong urge to write all this down.
It’s probably the ZONE and

Power Talk

DAREDEVIL: SHOWTIME! would be IMO a fair compromise for all the proposed subs regarding actors, comedians, talking heads, politicians and everyone using the attention economy.
