Why is mainstream tv right now so much better than mainstream film?
I like WALKING DEAD better than any recent zombie films. Doctor Who is more thrilling and romantic than most sf adveture films or romance films. LOUIE is more heartbreaking than any film i’ve watched lately. I laugh more at 20 minutes of FUTURAMA and BOB’s BURGERS than both Hangover films combined. There are genres I love, like British mysteries, that have all but disappeared from film, but thrive on tv.
What’s going on here? What happened to film?
