Are we currently living in the golden age of TV shows? * 1
    #23728976 - 10/11/16 05:49 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Hollywood movies seem to have dropped down in quality in the last decade or so, but TV shows IMO have gone way up.

No matter which company (HBO, Netflix, Showcase, AMC, etc), almost every show is amazing. Every company has their gems. Some of these shows are so addictive that they affect my life lol. I have also noticed that first class actors are picking up a lot of roles lately. I would be surprised to see DiCaprio pick up a main role in a Scorcese directed Tv show. Back in the day, movie actor never went to TV. Going back to TV was admitting failure as a movie star. Now, it's the opposite it seems.

Do you agree?

I was talking about this recently; I do believe we're currently in a major upswing in the quality of TV shows.  They're certainly better now than any other time in my life.  Just so much amazing stuff any more.  I think I thank Breaking Bad for it, but I guess it really started in the early aughts with shows like The Wire and Arrested Development.  Also, Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu are doing big things.  Premium channels too.  Those factors are forcing cable TV to step it up.

Yeah I would say so, at least for American TV. A lot of earlier tv that people remember fondly is kinda shit if you look back it, lots of filler episodes to pad out a 26-episode season, and not as much of in the way of story arcs and that because they wanted people to be able to just jump in anywhere. Plus they would always try to milk as many seasons out of a show as they could, long past the point where they ran out of ideas.

I noticed some time ago the big movie actors are all appearing in tv series instead, i think theyre moving more to tv than movies as people watch them more so reach a greater audience? Movies and cinema nights seem to be on the down, i havent bothered with cinemas in years.

Yeah, there's some epic TV but movies... not so much. Movies are more of an instant gratification kind of thing where they don't need to pull the viewers' attention in because they can just do it one hit. TV requires better quality because if it's not good people will just stop watching it.

i gotta agree.

The production value of TV show is way up, movie quality!

One of my favorite shows was House M.D. Wow what a show, like mini movies. So good.

Now i watch The Walking Dead. Such a big production, that they gotta take breaks for recording more shows.

Seeing the behind the scenes is insane. So much goes into the show.

Im curious to see where it goes from here. I still think movies are still amazing thou, Jurrasic World, Divergent series, Pacific Rim, Star Wars was pretty decent overall i think, etc. Still awesome movies.

We might be on the verge of the golden age of TV if we're not there already. The quality has definitely gone way up overall but there have been plenty of terrible shows over the past few years as well. In the next 10-20 years I could see it getting more and more competitive forcing everyone to step up their game. With online streaming getting better and better maybe TV will have to get rid of ads, that would be amazing.

Actually rewatching GOT

Never really cared for TV, but there have been a few good shows the past few years.
I think a good show is much better than its equivalent movie, 2hrs isn't enough time to tell a story.

It does suck when a show drags on past its expiration though

TV on prime time is worse than ever. Fresh off the boat, Two broke girls, BLACKISH!?!? House wife.. if you haven't heard of any of these look up trailers its pathetic

But we all know how the good ones are.

Yeah I would say so... and we don't even have cable or watch our TV lol.
Torrent/netflix everything :cookiemonster: Or for everything else there's Youtube / Amazon Prime

There haven't been so many quality TV shows ever in my time of being alive. I mean there were always good ones.. but they were spread out.
Now it's like they are everywhere. Arrested Development.. GoT.. Breaking Bad.. Narcos.. The Wire.. Band of Brothers.. Rick and Morty.. Cosmos.. Human Planet..  Fullmetal Alchemist.. Stranger things.. just to name a couple
The density of good shows has definitely gone up and the quality of production and acting has astronomically as well. No longer are TV shows shoestring budget, B-grade crap.
Lots of these shows have millions and millions behind them and so much insane work goes into their production they rival or beat many movies. Not saying low budget shows can't be good too.. just it really shows how the tables have turned.

Plus the show format is much better suited for telling really long stories that don't fit in a movie, that's why series have become so insanely popular. You got a whole season to tell your story instead of trying to cram it into a 2-3hr film.
And plus beyond TV we have the whole Youtube... Liveleak... Twitch, thing. The choices have never been better really.

only because they'll run out of ideas eventually

for entertainment yes but if you think breaking bad or AHS is the bread and butter you're really fucking stupid, a lot of stuff that happens in those shows is completely fabricated or doesn't make any sense at all

i think we're living in the golden age of porn actually
