In response to "this is a good thread on why the current streamer-centric model for “TV” sucks and makes it more likely future shows will suck more -- (link)" by hollywood big shot

John Landgraf will remind you that this is the era of Peak TV. We have more original content than ever before, and some of the best shows ever.

The biggest different is that we have countless new shows now with only 10-12 episodes each when before we got 10 new shows with 30 episodes each. Smaller writers rooms? No back end? That’s just WGA dog whistles. So long as there streaming wars are ongoing, there’s work aplenty. Now, of course… it sure looks like the streaming wars are on the brink of ending in a bloody stalemate. Then we can cry about it. But don’t tell me that TV shows today suck. I won’t hear it.
