You can but the difference is that its usually a storyline or subplot within an established show. There are indeed plenty of examples of it being handled badly - but I can't think of another show where it is the CENTRAL theme and focus of the entire season and the main leveraged plot device. Or in other words, a show is usually the backdrop for a storyline that features suicide. In the case of this show, the suicide IS the backdrop upon which other storylines are mounted. IMO there's a huge difference.
