Has anyone explained why? They were able to make more episodes of Breaking Bad and release them every year, but that’s apparently impossible now but I don’t know why.
>>217809476The turnaround time for tv series and games is ridiculous now. The same shit we used to get annually not inexplicably takes 2-5 years.
>>217809476Because they're fucking with you, they want you miserable. That's it. Period.
Breaking bad wasn't bullshit nonsense Walter white has a clear established goal (getting money) and means to achieve that goal (selling drugs) the rest of the writing is just placing obstacles in his path.
probably some sort of elaborate prank or social experiment to see how much of your time they can waste both during airing and outside of it
>>217809476>why
>>217809476Streaming can allow you to make the show on your own pace and work on it until you’re satisfied with instead of just churning out slop because the network demands you to puke out scripts on a deadline on a weekly basis. Also, something like the Pitt takes place inside one hospital so you don’t need time consuming location shoots, etc. that slows production down due to the logistics involved.
>>217809588>chud can’t think of anything except whine about minorities
>>217809476Unions
>>217809635In his defense things have gotten lower quality as minorities became more visible and the manufacturing became more globalized. There’s the myth of the “just as qualified” black candidate that doesn’t hold up to scrutiny when you consider affirmative action, exclusive scholarships for black people, no child left behind policies that usher inner city kids out the school door having learned absolutely nothing etc all the way to Medicaid paying for them to be born and WIC paying for them to eat. Not that I’m against people eating, but to then pretend that both candidates are the same on paper is just patently wrong and we can see that in the quality businesses are pumping out. It’s a white mans world, everyone would do better off accepting that instead of just ruining the modern, comfortable society he built.
>>217809476medslop/copslop are easy high drama, lowest hanging fruit, basically the puns of the series world.actual /tv/ with a thought out story takes time to craft.
>>217809625>Streaming can allow you to make the show on your own pace and work on it until you’re satisfied with instead of just churning out slop because the network demands you to puke out scripts on a deadline on a weekly basis.Yet this slower take for television that started happening around the pandemic is widely seen as the "end" of the golden age of television. Breaking Bad. Mad Men. Game of Thrones. They all released episodes yearly. Usually around 13.
>>217809715>uhhhhh white people are always more qualified and that’s why quality is worse when you allow minorities to get jobsSure, dude. If you say so.There certainly hasn’t been a long trend of constant cost cutting that directly affects every aspect of productions, revenue dropping when home media releases and theatrical releases stopped making usual amounts of money at the backend when things transferred to streaming which can’t produce same profits, projects being selected more ane more based on algorithms and profitability projection spreadsheets instead of creativity or artistic merit, executives not giving a shit about quality and just thinking of maximising profit with the lowest possible price, endless media consolidation that kills competition and quality when people actually just have less options when five companies own everything, etc. Nah, must be because I hate black people and women and now I notice them in credits
>>217809588also new generation of jews are complete fucking retards
>>217809784>uhhhhh white people are always more qualified and that’s why quality is worse when you allow minorities to get jobsNot what I said retard, but it’s not surprising you have poor reading comprehension, you were supposed to be held back in 6th grade over it but George bush said “just send this little nigger on, in tired of paying for his lunch”
>>217809745Because those were still treated as normal network shows that had to follow yearly broadcast schedules, dummy. Yea, even HBO at the time relied on airing on TV when GoT happened. Streaming changed all that as they grew massively popular and dominant. And it’s also because actors now don’t just do TV or movies, they do both at the same time so scheduling and coordinating everyone’s availability is way harder than before.
>>217809784The drop in quality coincided with the mass hiring of minorities and alphabets to tick an arbitrary ‘diversity’ checkbox instead of for experience and competence. If some fag or tranny is the best person for the job, great, but that’s obviously not what happened. Your other explanations are self evidently false because there have been massively successful movies and shows even after the cope reasons you gave for the simple reason they weren’t used as a soapbox circlejerk for modern American leftist politics.
>>217809934Correlation doesn’t equate causation.>DURRRRRRRR but successful things still exist Wow, aren’t you observant! Almost as if the listed things don’t magically stop quality from existing and instead just increasingly make it harder to produce quality as time goes by when corporate side keeps pushing lower costs, dumber scripts and saying quality doesn’t matter as they chase the lowest possible common denominator in order to minimise risks and maximise profits
>>217809476Plurbing is hard work
>>217809476he has no idea where to take the story. it's just a half-finished idea he pitched to amazon, not expecting them to pick it up.
>>217809715it's not because of minoritiesit's because all the spergs who used to become writers now get addicted to vidya and social media instead and never accomplish anything. it was already a perceptible issue by the late 90s.
>>217809715>several hundred studios, networks and production houses have merged into three massive corporations and where there were thousands of different projects with actual variety, artistic vision and creative risks competing with each other, there is now a monolithic corporate machine writing shows by committee based on what market research says is the "it" thing now, with zero need to stand out or take risks because all other shows are produced by the same corporation so there's no actual meaningful competition, while taking great care that none of the budget goes towards any creatives, only marketing>I wonder if that's why everything is slop these days >NO, IT MUST BE THE BROWN PEOPLE Makes sense.
>>217809476Thank fuck, he should cut his losses and move on to a new idea already - show is DOA and boring as fuck
>>217810423Amazon didn't pick it up for production, Apple TV picked it up and produced it.
>>217809812Nepo jews who never learned.
>>217809588Imagine gatekeeping Hollywood
>>217809715>comfortable society Let me guess you want minorities to stay poor and eat from the garbage so your way of life is "preserved" kek
>>217809476Because the industry literally exists to spend the most time and money on the least amount of output
Pluribussy
>>21780947610 years of your life just to know how a tv show ends.
>>217809476since its another mystery box showthey have nothing plannedin fact the show ran out of ideas 2 episodes in
>>217809812One has to raise the possibility:The first generation of jews took goyim models as wives.The second generation are half reptilian infiltrator, half airheaded bimbo.
>>217809635Kill yourself, troll.
>>217809565I watched 1 and half seasons of Breaking Bad. I didn't get why people hyped it so. Pretty boring desu.
>>217809635Not an argument
>>217809784When a system:>foregrounds identity in hiring>foregrounds identity in marketing>foregrounds identity in criticism>foregrounds identity in moral framing…it forfeits the right to say identity is irrelevant.You don’t get to:>inject it everywhere>use it as insulation>weaponize it against critics…and then accuse people of hallucinating when they notice.That’s gaslighting.
>>217810292>These things increasingly make it harder to produce qualityYes. Exactly.Now ask:Why is it harder?If the answer were only economics, then:>criticism would still be welcomed>merit would still be rewarded>flops would still be acknowledged>creators wouldn’t moralize failureBut that’s not what we see.What we see is:>ideological rationalization>blame-shifting>audience hostility>prestige laundering>defensive press narrativesThose are not cost-cutting artifacts.They’re cultural enforcement behaviors.It’s propaganda.
>>217810804Corporate consolidation explains sameness.It does not explain why bad writing is defended, criticism is moralized, and failure is reframed as virtue.That only happens when competence stops being the primary filter.the harder you insist “it can’t possibly be DEI,” the more obvious it is that it absolutely is part of the system you don’t want examined.
>>217813471This.Leftists literally obsess over race then try to pretend it's our fault for commenting on it when we notice how it's all pervasive throughout television and culture. As if we're the ones that decided to race-swap characters into niggers and engineer society to rig niggers into undeserving prosperity at the expense of people who could have earned those positions through merit.Yeah, when society is rigged to promote mediocre niggers and then the quality of that societies output starts decreasing, I think it's fair to say that the mediocre niggers probably have something to do with it.
>>217809476The show was kinda crap anyway. I watched for loyalty to Vince. His attitude has soured the show now. He should grow the fuck up and write or tell people he’s a hack. Simple as
>>217810446That argument explains distraction, not discrimination.It doesn’t explain why standards are selectively lowered, why criticism is moralized, or why failure is insulated.Blaming individuals avoids discussing hiring rules, which is the entire issue.You’re not diagnosing the system.You’re defending it by pathologizing anyone harmed by it.
>>217809476>>217809498basically >>217809588talent used to exist in hollyjew but the diversiwhales and indians were cheaper and less "problematic"
>>217811262That’s not what was said, and you know it.Arguing that policy choices affect standards and outcomes is not the same as wanting anyone to suffer.Conflating criticism of incentives with cruelty is just a way to avoid defending the incentives themselves.
>>217809509wow i finally get the complaints about captchaneeding to solve 3 of these puzzles now even after wasting my time email verifying. i guess i'm out after this
>>217809476>write two episodes>stretch it out to 6 there's your season
>>217810804Yes, there is only 5 studios left, and the people that fund them demand a focus on identity politics and virtue signaling over quality. One of those reasons is MBA types looking to expand into different markets, and because the major markets already gobbled up white dudes, the executives made the mistake of thinking that those white dudes would consume anything put in front of them if it has a familiar logo, so they decided to branch out into making media that appeals to everybody. Unfortunately, that leads to creating media that appeals to nobody and pushing out all the people with money (white dudes) in favor of people who literally can’t even afford lunch for their children was stupid. In order to cover their own asses, they then flip it on white dudes because they abandoned these franchises and movies that were openly hostile to them while preaching that everyone needs representation in everything if they’re even going to consider watching. I don’t think minorities did this, unless you’re talking about market minorities in the sense that it was a bunch of over educated suits with no intelligence trying to branch out into markets that didn’t work, using groups of people that have less money than their original consumers. Black cinema is unironically better when it’s siloed and allowed to do its own thing, that’s how you get Shaft, Undercover Brother, Chappelle’s Block party etc. Black people don’t want to be the gayest Dr Who ever, they want their own shit. Instead they all got shoveled into DEI departments and fired as soon as Trump became president.
>>217809476I finished ep 3, is it actually leading to anything or is it just meandering around to nothing?
>>217811262No, I believe a rising tide lifts all ships. When you cut a man at the knees, it doesn’t suddenly make the midget taller.
>>217809476Most episodes of breaking bad are filler, however.
>>217809476He apparently doesn't plan his shows out. I'm watching Better Call Saul and just listened to the DVD commentary for the season 2 finale and he outright says they don't know what Chuck is gonna do with the recording next season but they're working on writing it
>>217813919And those filler episodes are better than the non filler ones of this shit (of which there are 2?)
>>217809715He’s right.
>>217809476WELOSTTHETECHNOLOGY
>>217814000This explains why season was 1 was very underwhelming, turns out is not because the story is slowly unfolding but because they didnt know what direction to take it
>>217809476It's because the show sucks and Vince and his cohorts can't write anything decent, let alone good at a reasonable time anymore. And for some reason, despite TV shows taking years to make, they all looks ugly as shit. Euphoria is the only show I'll give a free pass to because it's the best-looking show ever and is well directed to boot.
>>217809476Competency crisis
>>217813656see you tomorrow
>>217809588>>217809812this
>>217809588/thread
>>217809784well, sweetie, when you hire for identity instead of merit, you don't end up with the most qualified candidates. or do I need to use smaller words?
>>217813624diversity hires exist as a hate sink for you to ignore the people hiring them
>>217809715>when you consider affirmative action, exclusive scholarships for black people, no child left behind policies that usher inner city kids out the school door having learned absolutely nothing etc all the way to Medicaid paying for them to be born and WIC paying for them to eat.what about just considering, you know: math?
Bince is milking that Apple money
>>217815569nobody's ignoring the people hiring them. calm down.
>>217809476It's funny that the writers went on strike saying that they deserved to be compensated more for churning out slop while also complaining that they needed more job security because AI is capable of churning out slop of the same quality as them LOL
>>217815715word is they're considered striking again.
Is this a Pitt thread
>>217815793it's a shit thread
>>217809476Well Pluribus has an original story, for The Pitt they can just open up WebMD every time they need an idea for the next episode
>>217815740hopefully this time the studios grow a spine and fire the worthless hacksastounding how they can only create garbage, and yet those talentless retards can't write more than a season consisting of 6 episodes, with half of the running time being meaningless filler, pr year.And not even pr year apparently.
Rhea will be in her 60's by the time the show ends.
>>217809588Nepo babies have increased in number more than DEIs though
>>217809476The people working on Pluribus are bad at their jobs
>>217809726The Pitt is much more difficult to write than Pluribus.>way more characters>happens in real time>has to be medically accurate>tackles many different societal issuesMeanwhile, what actually happens in Pluribus plot-wise? You have 3 characters and one conflict. That's it.
>>217813570Leftists simply do not have morals, they believe that their end justifies any and every mean on the way, therefore lying to you is virtuous. They will always abuse your preconceived notion that they are attempting to reach a shared truth, when the only thing they want is to convert or kill you.
>>217809588Rightoids will never be able to identify the true problem with society (unbridled capitalism) because they've been tricked by the ruling class to instead focus on culture war issues- the Epstein emails confirm this.
>>217809812Turns out psyoping half the world for almost a century will also psyop your own kind.
>>217809476You can't just hire a few competent writers anymore, you need to hire a bunch of DEI writers too. It slows down the process.
>>217818010Conservatives simply do not have morals, they believe that their end justifies any and every mean on the way, therefore lying to you is virtuous. They will always abuse your preconceived notion that they are attempting to reach a shared truth, when the only thing they want is to convert or kill you.
>>217809476it takes a long time to film a show where nothing happens.
>>217809476Vince wants this to be his last project before he retires. Even though the show's plot clearly has a ticking clock, his personal time table is "eh, whenever"
>>217812261as good as it gets from me
>>217819126
>>217809498And for roughly 1/3 of the number of episodes.This is legitimately.why I started watching Korean shows. I can't be bothered watching a US show with an interesting premise only to wait 2-3 years for a resolution to a second season that may very likely end up adding absolutely nothing to the plot like From or Severance.These stories aren't good enough to wait a decade for.
>>217809476Take out the long artsy shots and breaking bad world be half as long.
>>217809498Its because each "season" is now a sequel to a miniseries rather than a continous show.It used to be shows had a writer's room that would write as the show was airing and between seasons, so they could do rewrites as needed or put a script on ice because it wasn't working and then just keep polishing it until they could squeeze it into the schedule. Now everyone gets fired after the season ends and starting a new season requires rehiring everybody and working around all the actors' schedules because nobody's getting locked into a five year contract anymore.
>>217819303I am sick of this too. I hate "Mystery Box" writing too, and the lack of planning in shows now. I read the Silo books after watching the show and realized they added a bunch of story threads that will clearly never get resolved satisfyingly. It doesn't help that every new story thread is extremely stupid too.Where should I start with Korean shows? The one people keep spamming looks gay but maybe I'll give it a shot.
>>217809635>we need more black people in everything, even if they were never there, makes no sense, and makes it less immersive. More black people. MORE BLACK PEOPLE!!!!!>OMG chuds don't like it, the only thing they see is skin color! Dey wacissss!!!!Kill yourself, leftist tranny
>>217809476Hard at work in trying to figure out how to incorporate more lesbian sitting on couch scenes
>>217819659>working around all the actors' schedules because nobody's getting locked into a five year contract anymore.I can picture that with other tv shows like the Last of Us where you have Pedro Pascal and Moner who have other projects, but this is Pluribus. I highly doubt Rhea, Karolina, Manousos's actor, and Diabate's actor have anything else going on in their acting careers that requires their attention.
>>217819696What kind of shows do you want to watch? The Kdrama spammer posts good shows, but they're almost only romantic dramas and they have a lot more genres on offer.
>>217820239Anything with sci-fi or crime elements.I actually have seen Korean TV before, I watched tons of Chef and my Fridge with my family. Did enjoy it but it's not the type of thing I typically gravitate to.
>>217813656Mobile just has one easy ass "slide to find the difference between 2 cirles and a square" puzzle. 4chan is a mobile site now, deal with it.
>>217809476Rhea Seehorn was wrapping a movie and has another one line up where she is producing and directing. Basically, the main character of the show is not available until late 2026 / early 2027.
