so why the crapass hell don't motherfucking tv stations take goddamn advantage of this? sure, they'd get attacked by decency groups and lose some advertisers, but they would gain some too. hbo, showtime, etc have shown pretty well that there's a solid market for programming that doens't treat the viewer like a delicate victorian flower. you don't think advertisers would line right up to market their product during true blood?
in unrelated news, i watched white dwarf yesterday. this was a tv movie from 95 that was actually a failed show pilot. it beat firefly to the punch in mixing scifi and western, and then goes ahead and adds medieval and fantasy and 20s elements and basically whatever else they could come up with. it's not superbrilliant, but it's good, and for whatever reason it's stuck with me all these years; it was great to finally watch it again.
