By this measure, most stories that offer hope in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds are "despicable." Most stories would fall in to this bucket, even those that revolve around love and romance. Books, film and most art are means by which to escape reality. If people watch Jericho for its potential accuracies, well they're idiots, right?
