Reply to Is Suits worth watching? by

It's an interesting legal drama. It's never in the courtroom. It's more office politics, soap opera, legal strategy that gets you to settle before going to court. It's lighter in tone than most.

Reply to How many of you had never heard of The Last of Us video game series but are excited for the show? by

I don't play video games.

  • Pedro Pascal is one of the few actors I'd watch eating mashed potatoes.
  • Trailer looks awesome.
  • I loved The Walking Dead and World War Z. I welcome another Zombie dystopia... or at least this is what I think it is (don't spoil it if it isn't)
  • I Trust HBO... this is what good programing do to a brand.

Reply to Are we seeing the death of "TV" and no one is putting the pieces together? by

What were experiencing is the death of the cable TV Branded model. For 40 years success is defined by narrow niche channel for a specific demographic or interest. Hey were the network for black people, we're the network for music, were the network for food, were the network for cartoons. We're heading back to BIG networks/streamers where we get a wide variety of content. Media companies need to figure it out and figure out how to monetise it. But they'll figure it out.

Good news is content is king. No longer the betwork brand come first, the shows do. Ted Lasso, Stranger Things, Euphoria towers over their host networks. Also isn't it awesome to enjoys tv without beging tied to scheduling? Shows like You, Cobra Kai, Abbot Elementary, Community, would be lost if they were in another era. BUt now people can sample a wide variety of TV as much as they can consume.
