Alan Sepinwall is the Chief TV critic for Rolling Stones magazine and author of numerous books on television. This week we discuss the future of television, and pissing off showrunners.
Thank you Ken for interviewing Alan Sepinwall. I’ve followed his reviews for many years. Even when I don’t agree with him, I find his reviews to be very fair and informative.
I read that there are 400 scripted TV shows across all networks and platforms. There is no way anyone can keep up with 10% of the shows, even if the 'season' is 10 episodes.
I think it was Alan Sepinwall's blog that actually brought me here a few years ago, probably on a link to a CHEERS review or something. So you can credit him for giving you another pain in the ass loyal reader.

The Rolling Stones have a magazine? Did not know that!
ReplyDeleteCan the title still be changed to "TV" critic instead of just "V" critic?

ReplyDeleteHaven't had time to listen to this or last week's yet, but I've enjoyed Alan's writing since back in the rec.arts.comics days on Usenet.

ReplyDeleteSepinwall is a great listen on so many podcasts. He might be the world's most likable New York Yankee fan!
