The typical US TV shows are trash, agreed. But those other ones are not even related.
Follow Ups:
Dennis Potters Pennies from Heaven (Bob Hoskins) and The Singing Detective (Michael Gambon, Joanne Whalley-Kilmer)
The Prisoner (Patrick McGoohan)
Some episodes of I Love Lucy (Lucille Ball, Desi Arnez) esp./ first series, but not allWhen TV is good, it can very very good, certainly the equal of cinema with more scope for plot and character development
Happens not very often tho'Grins
That would be "Firefly", "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", and "Angel".
And, Joss is shooting a movie, "Serenity", which is "Firefly" for
the big screen, same cast as the late, great TV series. Regards,
before getting into TV and directing Miami Vice
My favorite Mann film is "Thief" (sometimes titled Violent Streets) starring James Caan, which has a soundtrack by Tangerine Dream
When Caan did his Actors studio TV bit; he claimed his role as Frank in "Thief" was the one role he had enjoyed the most in his career...
