Wow I just got home and more DVDs from the Academy - you know it is Emmy season when your mail box fills - not that I am complaining
- it is great way to see shows you may have missed. I was really impressed with the work in the series the Tutors on Showtime, very well made show. Showtime have really been getting great scripts lately, and their work -plus people like HBO etc make me feel like episodic TV is in a golden age of quality writing. I know - I know it may not seem that way - but come on Tutors, Sopranos, Entourage, Sleeper Cel, Heroes, Rome, Studio 60, The Extras - all outstanding productions.
These are just some of this year’s better box sets.
I actually take voting really seriously - I think the crews of these shows deserve that.
In a semi-unrelated topic - I am interviewing the vfx team from Heroes today. Those guys have done a great job - the show is really engaging and the visual effects are both key and well done. This will be next week’s fxguide podcast hopefully - also check out another great interview by John this week with the Shrek - Dreamworks Animation team. www.fxguide.com
