Question: After watching the finale of the excellent miniseries Generation Kill, I wondered why the miniseries format is not more popular. I guess the obvious answer is money, since popular TV shows and movies are way more profitable. Books should be adapted into miniseries rather than movies in my opinion, considering how there is enough time to cover most of the material (The Corner, Generation Kill and the wonderful Band Of Brothers come to mind).

Most critics don't seem to be in love with The Tudors or Californication. FX has Damages and the final season of The Shield. And AMC had two of the best rookie dramas in years, but now the pressure in on to go three for three. I hope the six-part The Prisoner is up to the standards they've set. With shows like Big Love, The Wire (final season), Entourage (a weak season but still gets Emmy ... read more
