To me nothing is more indicative to the death of Twitter than the lack of this info in my feed. Even though getting the same quotes over and over again is never ideal, it gave me a sense of the room and different perspectives. This year, nothing, and these Episodic Mediums are the only way I’m getting the details.
I've enjoyed your coverage of the TCA, but in particular your insights into the complete disaster of Bennett Graebner failing so utterly at something that, as you say, he should have seen coming. How embarassing. He and the franchise deserve the trade press scrutiny. (Not that I'm shocked he couldn't answer the question--it's what I would expect given the franchise's terrible track record re: diversity.)
Has anyone defined "subcedural?" I've seen other executives using "prestigural" and it all seems like an attempt to paper over their embarrassment at putting procedurals on TV, even though procedurals are the bread and butter of TV. Which tells you a lot about the executives, frankly.
The entire Bachelor debacle is an unbelievable failure of PR prep. Producers don't just wander onstage; they're prepped in advance. That they somehow failed to consider they'd get asked this is shocking.
Landgraf absolutely nailing a thing I'd been feeling about basically all media/news lately with this quote.
"Nobody basically gives anything the benefit of the doubt, whereas I would suggest that people probably read, you know, deep stories about international relations because they were in the newspaper that they otherwise wouldn't have read."

I am fascinated by all of this and kudos for your question illiciting such an informative answer.
But why was Reservation Dogs shut down at 3 seasons instead of the planned 5??!
Sterlin Harjo made that call - FX was blindsided by it, per Landgraf.
Whoa
