i don't see why this is a black/white thing..

same type of shyt happened when zach braff and kevin smith crowdfunded their movie projects.

being skeptical of someone with seemingly more money than you asking for money from you is a logical reaction.. nothing wrong with it.

but to go the extra mile of not donating and then shytting on the people trying to get donations is unnecessary.

Television is supposed to be as safe and as middle of the line as possible.

:patrice:

You just wake up from a coma or something? That ain't been true in 20 years, not even on network TV.

As far as the thread :manny: either donate or don't but some of the stuff they're trying to get is a little :patrice:

This show seriously needs $5,000 cameras and $5,000 lenses? They need to dial that $250,000 goal way the fukk back.

You would think that but a lot of shows that supposedly push the edge only create the illusion of doing so, don't get me wrong, an AMC or an FX are outliers but there needs to be potential of broad appeal and a show about street life in Brooklyn or whatever has no mass appeal as it is and would need to be reworked in one way or another and that process is lengthy. I sat at the meetings, and I've gone to bat for a lot of screenwriters who didn't make it in my time.

Yeah, but that's two different things.

Yes this show won't appeal to the mainstream....but that doesn't mean TV is safe and "middle of the road" any more.

And I'm not even talking about cable. NBC has "Hannibal" which is one of the most critically acclaimed shows on TV and it's about a murderous cannibal serial killer. That would've never happened 15-20 years ago. Hell, on NBC it wouldn't have happened 5 years ago.

Pre-"Sopranos" I could kinda understand what you're saying....but TV is currently the leading platform for writers and directors....which is why you have everyone from Rian Johnson to David Fincher directing TV....it's why you have McConaughey and Lawrence Fishburne acting in series.

Funny you should talk about Hannibal. I'm with you I think it's one of the top 3 dopest shows on TV, but the only reason the show has really made it past the fist season is because NBC is desperate for programming and even though it's viewership is low considering the namesake and the caliber of actors and the depth of it's writing. If NBC could find a half decent drama they would drop Hannibal like a hot potato. My protege is a writer on the show and he expects this upcoming season is a make or break season. That being said, it gonna get even crazier so if it does go out, it's going out with a bang.

Also its best they stay on Youtube, if they go the Netflix route they can still get cancelled :ld:
