Fuck no. It's the god damned war room. Fighting is what we do. Throw them some baby oil if you want, but no stopping.

Baby oil clogs your pores.

Richard harrows death is a great example of TV reaching the heights of film/cinema in the category of “art.” You don’t see that often in tv. There is a certain level of “art” that cinema reaches that tv misses. But, imo, this scene really captures it. This is high film quality and a very beautiful scene. This is about as good as it gets for TV

The problem with tv is that there’s too much opportunities for fan service.

I tried to watch boardwalk empire, I love Steve B on the sopranos and I was excited to see Michael Pitt again after Dawson’s creek, but I just couldn’t get into the show.

We’re not fighting we are arguing.

[sickness2.0]

Nope. I don't care if people argue, debate, discuss, etc I only say something if they act unkind

Can I say something.....

I have not but it's on my list. How was it?

I've watched Tenet 3 times and I still don't know what's going in it fyi lol

It's ok rather read the books about these people more. The main actor is good in it but it got boring. Tenet is fucking confusing. Still don't know what really happened in the end.

Things are also stretched out and watered down because of money and popularity as well. They’ll continue a program even when it’s run it’s course.

Saying there’s no comparison in cinema and tv is the stupidest fucking thing I’ve ever heard, just the opening credits to the sopranos offers a cinematic master piece for its views of jersey, saying almost all tv shows are influenced by films is far fetched, seeing as both heavily borrow from each other (the fugitive was a tv show before it was a movie, same for shitty movies like the dukes of hazard, star sky and hutch, chips, and I know that tv shows done the same like with Buffy, and I just can’t think of another example right now)

There's a lot to unpack here but that's a tremendous way to start a conversation first of all. Of course it's hugely ironic that your mission statement for television as art would be the Sopranos which is largely warmed over Scorsese. Listing off television shows that were remade as movies isn't really what I had in mind when I spoke to the influence of film on television, of course there is a transactional relationship when established properties are in place. You bring up the Fugitive which again is an amalgamation of hardboiled noirs of the 40s and man-on-the-run Hitchcock films. Not exactly original.

I'd say the movies>tv bit still plays out, but the difference and divide are rapidly narrowing. It may well be that, within a decade or two, the is no longer any difference between the two mediums in terms of production and distribution.

If you want movie-style art from a traditional television channel, I'd check out Kidding. Stars Jim Carrey and is directed by the director of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It's beautiful.
