I know that there was, for a while, in the city where I live, a TV series doing an introduction to chess on the educational channel on cable TV. It was locally made. I think they based it on Fred Reinfeld's "The Complete Chess Course" as I remember it.
If you look at YouTube, you will see videos about chess there, including some made by private individuals. So the video production part is doable.
But even with 500 channels, airtime is valuable to cable operators. For this to happen, enough people would have to want to watch.
Instead, it seems people prefer to watch "reality TV" shows like Survivor. Which kind of remind my of Arthur C. Clarke's story "I Remember Babylon"...he congratulated himself on preventing some futures, but this one he didn't.
I hope this comes true
