I was hoping this was going to be a Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon series.

I thought it was uneven but with some bright spots. Nanjiani in particular generally surprised me with how funny he was.

I see your point, and it's a difficult problem, but I'm not convinced that the best way to get quality programming on television is for everyone to pay for 80 channels they will never watch in the hopes that one day the next Breaking Bad will come out on the Golf Network simply because there is a place for it to

I agree with you to a point, but Watchmen came out in 1986 and did a really quite excellent job at deconstructing common superhero tropes. Since that time there have been some other excellent deconstruction stories, but my God am I sick to death of superhero deconstruction by now. It's practically all the big two

Why, we still don't get them, right here in Big City USA!

I'm not really sure how your 2005 AMC example would really be different under a la carte. Instead of what I presume they were trying to do with Mad Men—to wit, produce a prestige show and so attract a larger and more desirable demographic for their advertisers—AMC could easily have run an experiment like Mad Men in

I see what you're saying, but in my book if you're getting a PhD, and if you are not an academic by profession, you should be able to legitimately crow about it.  Besides, he had genuinely smart things to say about everything he talked about.

That would be awesome. I like to imagine that the rest of the movie is a slow, heartfelt drama where the mother and daughter finally get a chance to really know each other and let their feelings out in the hold of that boat.

They also announced a reboot of Videodrome, so I'm guessing this is viral promotion for one of those two projects.
On the confirmation page they mention Fall 2013, so I guess we should know fairly soon.  (There's also some odd stuff in comments in the page source, such as "Global Stream: @username said he likes to

A metaphor for… the spirit of youth that animates rock music and the underground NYC milieu they came out of? I mean, does that really seem like such a stretch?

Yeah, it's almost as if the Youth in their name is like … a metaphor or something

Yeah, this comes across as super forced to me.

I think you mean "something something full sentences"
