I think it's a property of RPGs in general, not PTA specifically. GURPS can fail pretty hard if you're expecting it to give you a really good television show.
D&D got away with this for so long because of course everyone playing it came out of a wargaming background. No one else knew it was around.
What I find interesting about PTA is that it succeeds (in my experience) just as well when everyone commits to making a terrible television show.
