    Current TV is NOT better than the best movies. It's just fucking LONGER.

        @mattzollerseitz it's like saying Twitter sucks. 95% of everything sucks. no doubt in my mind 5% of TV is as good or > 5% of 1 year's movies

        @cohenesque If the best films are greater than the best TV shows, and they are, it's because cinema has a 50-year head start.

        @BretEastonEllis obviously you haven't seen the best tv shows that have been released. The Wire, Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights, Mad Men

        @BretEastonEllis I think current American tv is more interesting than most recent hollywood films but not cinema as a whole

        @BretEastonEllis In short, if you're making this case, maybe you should use examples of good movies & TV shows, and compare them fairly.
