Television is of course the better medium. Yes, there is a lot more sifting that needs to be done to find something of genuine merit, but I think the episode by episode structure gives real creatives a wider landscape to form their art.

Nothing against Film of course, but Television shows, at their best, can come as close as it gets to reading a great novel. Take The Wire for example. Each episode was around an hour long, without adverts,and had five series' of around thirteen episodes.

The subtle storytelling that went into the making of that series cannot be found in a movie.
