One of the mantras we have is that anyone can portray reality, but an artist portrays what reality should be."

Salvador Dali wasn't portraying "what reality should be".

“We wanted to be substantive and have a conscience and have something to say without beating you over the head with that message.”

We are all so hyper-sensitive to this “conscience based message” that any mention of it feels like beating over the head.

Shows come and go. Shows I’ve never heard of pop up in syndication. What demographic group watches network TV these days. Is there a demographic group for losers?

TV used to be called ‘the idiot box’.

I’m trying to think of any (major) “network television” shows I watch regularly...

There’s Big Bang Theory... But I mostly just watch re-runs.

There’s “The Expanse” on SciFi, “Humans” on AMC, and “Colony” on USA. Then there’s “Game of Thrones” and “Mr. Robot,” though that’s getting closer to jumping the shark.

I like watching “Red Eye” on Fox News, in the mornings as I’m getting ready to go to work, but I don’t like Tom as much as I liked Greg (and Shulz, before he left,) but I really watch it now for Andy. But they’ve been having more and more leftys on the show, like Davore, and when he’s on, I’ll often just delete the show from the DVR.

That’s really about it. I think the last time I watched a major network show faithfully, it was “ER.”

In the past, there have been shows I STOPPED watching because they turned political (and to me, offensive.)

“Superior Donuts” has as a main character an unemployed black guy who gets a job at a donut shop who tells the owner who has been running the place successfully for 45 years how to run the place. He proceeds to vandalize a Starbucks across the street because they are competitors. He keeps his job....
Judd Hirsch who plays the owner in the show must really need the work to be in this trash.

Someone needs to teach these fools the meaning of the term “escapism”.
