Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What's your ideal TV series length and style?English31·6 hours agoA dozen episodes (at roughly 50 minutes an episode) a season is still about 11 hours. That’s more than a movie trilogy would be in a single season. By quite a bit. It’s not fair to say that’s basically a movie trilogy.
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What's your ideal TV series length and style?English2·6 hours agoYeah, but it’s a pretty serious show is what I mean.
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What's your ideal TV series length and style?English1·7 hours agoWell to be fair, not all shows are designed to be ‘fun’ as such. I can’t imagine something like Dark, or Silo, or Black Sails or Mr. Robot having “fun” episodes (Elliot Aldersons dream in S02 not withstanding).

Skavau@lemm.eeto Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•It's Saturday what have you watched this week?English1·10 days agoI’ve been watching TLOU, The Ethernaut and Handmaids Tale - but mods can you update the template for the [email protected] as its now [email protected] pls (disclaimer: I run television)
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Obscure Music@lemm.ee•Imminent Sonic Destruction - Temple [Progressive Metal] [2012]English1·11 days agoWell, I am just going through my library alphabetically atm to keep the place going
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What are some examples of series that only have a good first season, and should be dropped after that?English2·12 days agoIt’s considered bad. I haven’t watched it. It’s set in a Japanese internment camp during WW2.

It’s an established term. And sure, genre terms are rarely literal.
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What are some examples of series that only have a good first season, and should be dropped after that?English281·13 days agoThe obvious examples for me are Altered Carbon, The Terror (although its anthological and a third is in production) and Westworld.
This is a duplicate, but it’s trended so high I’ll leave it up.
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What period was the "golden age" of TV in terms of content?English1·17 days agoYou don’t like any series after 2010?
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•What period was the "golden age" of TV in terms of content?English5·17 days agoI actually think 2020 onwards can be reunderstood as the “International Era”. Production from outside the USA has exploded and is more accessible than its ever been, so when people express grievance with say, post-2020 content (especially the release schedules) - you can point out how you aren’t really confined to the USA anymore.
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•Are there any TV series you gave up on, or just forgot about due to insane gaps between seasons?English5·17 days agoThe context here is time between seasons. I don’t think Lost and GOT had big gaps between seasons.
Skavau@lemm.eeOPMto Television@lemm.ee•First look at ‘The Trial’, a limited series that takes place in a near-future setting where parents can be held legally responsible for the crimes of their children.English2·22 days agoUnfortunately, it’s also Channel 5. Who are just flat-out bad at this.
Skavau@lemm.eeto Fedigrow@lemm.ee•Weekly thread - How are you doing with your communities?English5·23 days agoHonestly, the success of [email protected] is pretty much based on whats going on in the world regarding tv news and updates. Not much in the last 3 days admittedly. I do make the occasional question thread, but I’m wary of sounding like a broken record - and there’s not enough of a base audience yet to do other things communities do.
Still on track to hit that 1,000 subs in about a week or so tho.
True, but the LOTR trilogy is not representative of most trilogies.
Also in this comparison we’d be talking about the first season being the length of LOTR… There could be 3 or 4 more seasons to continue the character development.
