Show taken in as it comes (6)
I believe the answer is:
sitcom
'show' is the definition.
(I know that sitcom is a type of television program)
'in as it comes' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'SITCOM' can be found hidden inside 'as it comes'.
'taken' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for sitcom that I've seen before include "Humorous situation drama, in short" , "Fresh Meat, for example" , "TV series (colloq.)" , "this could be fun" , "Amusing TV genre" .)
