TV shows
With a whole slur of great TV shows being created over the last few years, I figured I'd try and get some insight as to what some people think and which shows are their favorites.
We got a lot of good ones like Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Game of Thrones. Just to name a few, and lately more channels have been willing to try more stuff because of the success that many of the more fantasy and historical shows like Tudors and Game of thrones have been doing so well. So we are getting new shows like Black Sails and Vikings as well.
What's peoples take on all this ? Personally my interest nowadays does not lie towards movies anymore ( which it used to a couple of years ago. Back then i was obsessed with movies ) now it lies with TV shows. I watch a lot of them, I was entire seasons in a weekend.
Anyone else who feels the same in regard to TV shows ? Do you find them better or worse than movies? If so, why ?

Re: TV shows
I think the big advantage of TV shows over movies these days is that they're kind of like a weekly event.
A movie comes out, people go see it, they talk about it some...that's it. Shows like Breaking Bad, though - they're weekly events. People make time every week to see them, they tweet about them, discuss each episode, the actors get involved - it's this whole big experience. They're like long movies you watch a little bit at a time.

Re: TV shows
The goal of movies in this era is garner box office success. That's why the market is flooded with comic book movies and adaptations of Young Adult Novels. It's a lack of creativity because they want something that just sells regardless if isn't The Green Mile.
TV shows have gotten way better. With late night programing, netflix and HBO. TV is getting away with a lot more and has more freedom to do what it wants with his characters instead of meeting a time schedule, budget. Etc. As much as I love film, TV is where its at in this era.

Re: TV shows
The goal of commercial anything is commercial success. There are more smaller, independent film projects produced now than any other time in history.
Just sayin'.

Re: TV shows
Game of Thrones is good, because if you have read the books you can command god-like power over those who merely watch the tv show.
If anyone ever displeases me, I just threaten them with book five spoilers.

My brother wants me to watch that Hannibal show, but I'm not caving until he watches Silence of the Lambs with me.

A member of my college gaming society watches that, she also likes Dexter too. For me though I prefer Romance of the three kingdoms, the 2010 version. I remember the fight scene with Lu Bu against the three sworn Brothers. " title="Smile" />
