You have a cat for an avatar. Leave the intelligent, high-quality TV to the people with the brains to appreciate it and go play with a ball of yarn.

Manhattan isn't anything in the present tense, except over.

I hope it is as good as Hell On Wheels.

More bullshit.

Bullshit.

It was just terrible, through and through. I still remember the bad old days of American comedy television, when sitcoms routinely did what the TV voice-over men always called "very special episodes." This week on Different Strokes, Arnold learns about child molesters (did that come before or after the one in which…

How is a performance "cartoony" if the actor acted exactly like the real-life person? If an actor was portraying Hitler giving an anti-Semitic speech before an enthralled mob, your note would be what? "Hey, man, like, bring it down a notch. Be cool. Show some dignity."

The lady dwarf who walked into the steam room in which Terry Kinney's character was sitting — after Kinney's character had admitted to being some kind of weird pervert.

Billions is original, and good so far, while Fargo, albeit brilliant, is a recycling of a film.

The Walking Dead needs them more, arguably.

Hope to see more of the dwarf.

Very.

Most TV is crap because crap is what the great American masses want, and America is a democracy. Never forget H.L. Mencken's dictum: "Democracy is the theory that the people should get what they want, and get it good and hard."

Liberal Hollywood discrimination against conservatives is not some kind of paranoid fantasy, and it certainly wasn't in the 1980's. I trust you have at least heard of the series St. Elsewhere, if you haven't watched it? Before that series started a man who would be a producer on the show, Bruce Paltrow (Gwyneth's…

Silly comment. The episodes of The Last Kingdom have all been 55 minutes in the US, not counting ads. Episodes are four minutes longer in the UK. The Bastard Executioner episodes are not longer than that, and have usually been shorter. Maybe FX just has more ads.

And the Swedish series was cancelled after two seasons with the story unresolved, presumably because not enough people wanted to watch it. The point of making changes when a remake is done is to make the series appeal to a broader — or at least commercially sustainable — audience. Humans is a big ratings success for…

Not getting the sense that there is a productive, or interesting, discussion to be had in exploring the matter further, dead souls. When two people so strongly disagree about TV drama, discussions invariably just turn into insults, either veiled or unveiled, of the other person's taste.

Their current dramas are actually quite outstanding.

AMC has already given a series order for a show called Broke to debut in 2016. They also have the BBC co-production The Night Manager set for 2016. That and Broke would cover the schedule vacancies for HACF (if it is cancelled) and Mad Men.

Humans is a British show for which the British broadcaster sought an American co-producer. This is very common with British series since British broadcasters have so little money. American series rarely have foreign co-production partners.
