( www.reddit.com )

Best use of cell phones in TV shows Many writers and directors often complain about how cell phones makes things “too difficult” or whatever. They dislike the fact that cell phones are so convenient and useful, allowing people to communicate with each other wherever and whenever, and gain quick access to information. They made a lot of stock plots obsolete unless you come up with …

Which show would you retcon to finish early?

( www.reddit.com )

Which show would you retcon to finish early? We all have favourite shows that went on too long. Ones that either declined in quality (The US Office) or simply deviated too far from its original premise (Prison Break, Lost). We also have shows that were cancelled without a resolution (Deadwood, The Last Man on Earth). Sometimes, shows are brought back and the quality suffers (Arrested Devel…

Brother Mouzone (The Wire) vs. Gus Fring (Breaking Bad)

( www.reddit.com )

Brother Mouzone (The Wire) vs. Gus Fring (Breaking Bad) OK, so this is a topic that comes up from time to time in The Wire community. Many are understandably sick of it, myself included. All the same, this thought popped into my mind and I needed to get it off my chest, I hope you can understand. Basically, one of the few points of criticism for The Wire has been the character of Brother Mouzone. Ma…

Has an anthology tv show ever had an episode (or season) spin-off into its own series?

( www.reddit.com )

Has an anthology tv show ever had an episode (or season) spin-off into its own series? I thought back to when there had been talks about the third season of AHS: Coven spinning off into its own series due to its popularity that year. That was the only example I have been able to think of, although it never came into fruition. Although, the opposite happened within the AHS series eventually. It eventually had a episodic anthology s…

What is it called when an actor in a tv series kind of pauses on an action kind of waiting for a cut or commercial.

What is it called when an actor in a tv series kind of pauses on an action kind of waiting for a cut or commercial. I’ve been watching Star Trek Voyager and noticed how apparent the action is. It’s like a dramatic pause where the actor has to hold on an emotion while the camera zooms in. I’ve seen it before in other shows of course. They go hard with it in soap operas. Does the director or script call for it by name? submitted by /u/kagamaru …

Streaming several different shows at once.

( www.reddit.com )

Streaming several different shows at once. How many do this vs. binging one series? Usually doing this let’s you see several at a slower pace, but are able to get to more shows in your “list.” For example, per instance, streaming The X Files, The Americans, Stranger Things, Severence, and several others but kind of slowly getting through each one. By this, I mean shows you want to “get t…
