    FTA-TV Arrested Development - Season Four

    Except the second they release it on Foxtel Now then Netflix can release it simultaneously? I would have thought just marathon it the day it comes out on the Comedy Channel, die hards can IQ it, and then its available on netflix the next day. No point in pissing off everybody

    Brilliant. Would have been a satisfying conclusion to the show.

    Biggest letdown

    Came in to post exactly this. Angry Boys was another good example. Somewhat expecting Luhrman's The Great Gatsby to be too.

    FTA-TV The Newsroom

    There are also aspects of it that show great potential. It just far too often gets caught up in Sorkin romanticisim/idealism making it stray too far from a piece of plausible fiction.

    If you want to have a discussion good, if you want to attack me with logical fallacies I cbf so I'm just going to list them until you're old enough to understand them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

    FTA-TV The Newsroom

    Saying that the news from the recent past technique isn't a crucial component of the show is bizarre. But if we're to take you're unique interpretation to it and consider it purely as a workplace/romantic drama then it comes up even shorter in my opinion. It's total melodrama that is sexist...

    FTA-TV The Newsroom

    But it's not. It's supposedly a hard news program but is portrayed in the Colbert/Stewart mould of mocking the complete depths of stupidity of the conservative press/Tea Party movement etc. There is a time and place for that, the idea that it's the near exclusive content of an important...

    What Caesar said. It's made to confirm the self perceived intelligence of people who consider their opinions/beliefs make them superior beings.

    FTA-TV Reality TV, like it or loathe it?

    I tend to think that the genre has diversified far too wide for the term 'reality tv' to be used to describe anything. I think if anything there are 4 sub-genres: Game Shows These are shows like Survivor, The Amazing Race, The Mole. Basically people in a standardized competition attempting to...

    It's like all of the worst bits of the West Wing rolled into one. The smug radiating out of this show is amazing.

    FTA-TV The Newsroom

    That's rather tragic. Particularly after what happened with Luck (which I also enjoyed)

    Average to good pilot, typically has potential. Having said that, as a disclaimer, I liked Studio 60!

    The West Wing

    Re: west wing Has there ever been a higher quality network television show? And on this note Sorkin has a new drama called 'The Newsroom' about to start on HBO to typically rave reviews.
