This is 28 seconds. It's just a looped version with him talking for almost 10 mins
If only all of us were so brave as to passive aggressively express ourselves through skits
I, for one, support the notion of making television cheaply again. The ability to render a cgi army doesn't make art, achieving your goals in an interesting way despite limitations makes art. I just wish people wouldn't take this as a signal to return to the same, cheap, easy, marketable shit they have always made.
"same, cheap, easy, marketable shit" Scripted reality tv never went away.
A little undervaluing the artistry of CGI there.
@@IkeOkerekeNews There are some things that can only be achieved through CGI, but no amount of production value can turn a bad series idea into a good one. If anything, a really impressive and expensive scene is a great way to distract people from the quality of your storytelling.
Is likely everything will just be written by Ai and just be cookie cutter bs with no originality.
Majority of it is like that already with all these shity writers. Of course that's because of the mentality it's based on the false spell popular idea that everything's been done before. And stealing ideas of what was popular before.
@@IkeOkerekeNews there is *potential* for artistry of CGI BUT the companies usually won't give vfx studios the resources or production value to actually reify that artistry. they basically always go with the lowest bidder. and that's besides the issue that CGI allows lazy directing and planning because you can fix so much in post these days. on balance CGI makes movies worse
I really like this. Usually on RUclips it's blind nostalgia for the past Ignoring the huge amount of dumpster fires we just accepted. I always feel like I'm gaslit when people talk about how great tv used to be. I remember the most popular shows for the most part weren't good, they were just fun and comforting, shows like Saved by the bell Sabrina, and MightyMax, sonicSatm. I loved these shows but I was aware they were not high-quality shows. They would tell you to stop being a couch potato, actively call you an idiot for watching them, and how their current show was making you dumber. We forget that we used to treat watching television as a sign of incurable ineptitude. All this to say, when I hear someone acknowledge the reality of the past it makes it so much easier for me to trust their analysis of what's going on right now.
That's precisely why is frustrates me to no end to see people on mass complaining about animations taking too long while using older cartoons as examples of productivity, as if their lower quality wasn't the defining evidence of the negative impact of a assembly line style of production for art.
Idk about those other shows, but Sonic SatAM was and still is an amazing show. Also, there were dumpster fire shows back then and a bunch of incredible shows back then too, just like it is today. Every era has its hits and stinkers
Crap television has and always will be a thing regardless of the era. The only difference between now and the mythic past is that most of the crap shows back then have been forgotten and so we in the present can deluded ourselves into believing Sopranos and the Wire were the only shows that existed back then.
Yeah, you were a _child._ Even by the standards of 90's television, "Sabrina" and "Saved by the Bell" were not the "Mad Men" of their time, get a grip dude.
I think Netflix and RUclips real tour de force is to have us believe, for a while, that watching it was not a waste of time. I mean, of course if you're watching the bad youtube or netflix, you are wasting time, but the good youtube and netflix? This is you learning. This is you getting cultured. This you enjoying art. Which would be a waste of time, even if it were true.
And it's fine to waste time, it's okay, but you have to be aware that this is what you're doing.
We have a good example of this decline lately with The Curse, a Nathan Fielder, Benny Safdie, and Emma Stone show that is very interesting and feels like it should be huge, but it’s getting no attention because it’s not on one of the like 2 streaming services people actually watch. With the streaming fragmentation right now it feels really hard for anything not on Netflix/HBO/Disney+ to take hold, and we have a less diverse and interesting TV landscape because of it.
yeah, landing a show on peacock or paramount seems more like a curse for your show
This reminds me of what happened with German t.v. You used to have very, very few channels, especially national ones, that did show a bit of everything. Very few shows for children, for example. So they could pick the two or so best ones available. Eventually, there were several channels that specialised on one type of show, for example children's shows. A whole channel just for children's shows. Of course the average one of those is worse than the two that used to be shown on the two main national channels.
Oh shid thanks for reminding that exists!
why does it have to be HUGE, that's part of the problem.
@@TheNewton he means fame, not the scope of the filmmaking being huge
My dad literally watched Suits while doing laundry whenever it came to Netflix a few months ago. I would watch a few minutes every now and then… it’s essentially a “prestige” soap opera where “prestige” just equals higher production value.
Man, sometimes I can’t tell whether this thing you’re carrying is an actual video essay or sarcasm
Dude is that good with sarcasm to the point it's like that for me as well lmfao
Putting “footage unrelated” over footage that is obviously related is an absolutely hilarious bit
As someone who watches too much Tik Tok and RUclips, there will be days where the most eventful thing that sticks in my head is going to the shops or glancing the tail end of Four in a bed or something else random on TV. Somehow 8 hours of videos on a myriad of topics, that cause so many different emotions in me at the time, by the end of the day the impact will be virtually nothing. Seeing a stray kitten with it's mummy cat in the garden for less than a minute will be something that I think of more than 8 hours of content.
Maybe watch less tiktok and youtube. Kinda sounds scary
Yeah your brain kinda shuts off when you watch tv and skits and shit. Which leads to your brain not considering that stuff essential so it dumps most of it from your short term memory and only saves a little bit to long term. Which when done en masse leads to like entire periods of ppls lives being kinda forgotten lol. That sounds worse than it is but VSauce made a video about our perception of time changing in the modern era due in large part to tv and media. That was just like one part of the video naturally but yeah. I think it was VSauce anyways

I'm being kind of pedantic, but tech companies don't usually get "debt", they get funding by selling equity, and then they have to make their company worth more so the funders can sell their ownership to someone else. Regardless, I think your analysis is still accurate.

@@DanLyndonto be even MORE pedantic but also completely off-topic, ATM machine is redundant as the M already stands for Machine.

"so the funders can sell their ownership to someone else"
Could they also hold onto it (instead of selling it) and take a cut of profit flows, theoretically?

TV was always cost-efficient (cheap as possible) but there was a heyday in the 70s where shows like Kojak did virtually a short movie every week. Sci-fi was always bad looking because of the SFX costs (but it mostly looked bad at the cinema too, until Star Wars revolutionised the technology), but more Earthbound shows could be fabulous, with tight, effective writing and directors working hard with what they had. The detective genre (my above example) was an exemplar. And hey, even The Incredible Hulk was a classic. Those writers told more story, effectively, in a single episode than we now get in an entire season.
I feel like everyone either suddenly started loving Columbo or they all secretly loved it. I'm more of a Kojak man, myself.
Correction: 2001: A Space Odyssey. Not Star Wars.
@@BrendanJSmith 2001 was an outlier not a game changer. Look at Logans Run, which won the SFX Oscar in 1976, to see how bad the standard was until ILM.
@@tedpilledtonysoprano5512 Yeah, I'm a Kojak man too.
@@tedpilledtonysoprano5512 Tbf the memes helped gen z get into Columbo, I say because I'am one of them.
I'm a film major and we were learning about the oversaturation of television recently. Really sad stuff, because the quantity from all of all these streaming services drown out the quality of any of them.
Weirdly though could we say the quality would exist without the quantity? Does the fact that a "small" streamer like Apple made Severance mean you can focus on quality over quantity, or do you refuse to take the chance on such a (relatively) weird show unless you're throwing everything at the wall in a highly competitive, highly saturated environment?
My biggest problem with huge streaming series is, as you mention, getting 6-8 episode seasons that tell a decompressed story with 3-year waits between seasons. When you need to have every episode finished at once AND every episode is high-budget and heavy on special effects, the post production takes so long. With the strikes of this year delaying everything that was shooting by at least 4 months, I think we’ll see a lot of shows coming out after the audience has already forgotten about them, and then delivering a weaker product on top of that.
I had to go to Man of Recaps for House of the Dragon Season 1, because I didn't remember _anything_ from that season.
This man is carrying my entire attention span.
Lol I was expecting this to be 20 seconds. After a minute I was so confused that it was still going 😂
I think one of the biggest issues is decision paralysis, causing people to not seek out new content and just watch re-runs of their favourite shows. Meaning TV has less money and less programming required to make originals hurting quality, making the offerings less attractive, causing re-runs to be watched more and TV then has less money again and again reduces it's programming. For example Inside No.9 cam e out in 2014, I heard about it in 2017 and it took me till 2021 to watch Inside No. 9 and it's become one of my most favourite shows. But the plunge to just watch something new meant I had waited years to "invest" 30 minutes of my time, which is huge when you are inundated with so much content from everywhere.
Yeah, the thing about the streaming landscape is, when a new show comes out, it's not just competing with other currently-in-production shows, but with EVERY SHOW EVER MADE.
It doesn't help when so much new content out there is dull reshashed old content.
This was great and I enjoy your perspective on things. I would be happy for you to continue making videos like this, on RUclips, where art always flourishes.
I loved this video essay style - feels like an awesome throwback to the earlier days of your channel when you did essays on Dune's writing and other deep-dives! Would love to see more pieces like this.
first video essay (if thats the right term for this) ive seen in a while that didnt feel unnecessarily dragged out, and instead was concise and to the point
Almost a 10-minute long essay? On this channel??
The folk hero! He never drops the ball!
I've been watching Deep Space Nine recently, and it's fascinating to see how cheap it can be. It's not a low-budget show for its time by any means, and they don't skimp on the stuff that's really important, but if you want to pay attention you can see the cost-cutting; all the datapads are cheap plastic props, they depict a new spaceship interior by just lighting and shooting an existing one differently, they follow up big episodes with obvious low-budget bottle episodes so they can balance the books, they just have Odo stand around and be intimidating most of the time because it's really expensive when he does any shapeshifting.
And it's FINE. I don't actually notice that they cut corners and cheap out, because it's a good show regardless! And yet, I don't even think modern Strar Trek knows how to be Star Trek in the ways that still make old Star Trek shows worth watching.
As someone taking a TV writing class this semester, the title alone gives me a renewed sense of dread (but also I definitely can see how bad things are looking so I'm bracing myself)
ETA: This is a common sentiment, but goddamn I miss when shows could have long seasons. 15-25 episodes where we just get bottle episodes or character moments, but when you have 8 episodes (sometimes to adapt a very large book) you're slaved to the plot. I watched each Stranger Things season in a day and I just felt *tired* at the end. That also gets into the 'dropping seasons at once discourse' though so I'll leave it for now.
No no, do get in the "dropping seasons at once" discourse, please.
Also, what are bottle episodes?
@@cormano64 Basically something that's self-contained in one place and doesn't really impact the larger plot. Standalones, if you boil it down enough.
But as for the season disk horse, I like the ability to sub for one month and get everything, but deluging really does kind of kill discussion. Why would I read an episode by episode discussion thread and theorise when I can just wait and read the full-season ones instead?
@@erixperience4050 The AV Club reviewer did a thing on a Netflix series that dropped at once, but decided to watch one episode per day so people could get their speculation on. It was painfully difficult to stop watching, engage with the website and then walk away from the series. Fun to speculate, but agonizing to wait through.
Stranger Things is legitimately amazing. Maybe don't watch it like a freebaser

I kinda wanted you to make a video like this, talking about anything but in a more short version, amazing video
Keep making skits and (maybe) more videos like this
I feel like a major issue thats happening more often, outside of big franchises encroaching into everything, is the constant process of making shows like they're movies. Shows that come out on Disney+ don't feel like a proper show with episodes, they feel like long movies with breaks in between major moments. And studios see the numbers they make and try to replicate it, and end up making things that are poorly paced. Even if it's something that is heavy on plot like Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones, the individual episodes have their own small self contained set ups and pay-offs and naturally flow into the next episode and next season, compared to things from netflix or disney+ where episodes have little plot development until the last 5 minutes and then it hard cuts to black and ends, rinse repeat for a season. They going about it the wrong way.
As a latino, I am humbled that you want to read "Cien Años de Soledad" on its original language. All the power to you, y buena suerte.

Big fan of your longer videos. Thanks for keeping it concise and to the point, another RUclipsr would’ve made this video an hour and a half.
It's a funny coincidence that you posted this video today because on Friday when I get paid, I am going to order a 4k ultra hd blu ray dvd player with upscaling. The reason for this is so that I can just buy the 4k ultra hd versions of movies and shows that I like, and then be able to watch them whenever I want. Maybe one day when my collection is big enough, streaming services will become unnecessary for me.
I used to watch a lot of television as a kid. That was like my type of ride and die back in the day. Even Netflix had to step back.
What a thoughtful, concise, and well-researched analysis of the TV landscape (based on some of the comments I read). I hope to have 9 minutes to watch the whole thing someday.
I loved this style! It felt well paced and unsurprisingly very well written, and i would definitely watch more like this

Man, he really carried that thing for over 9 minutes.
Given the amount of legitimate art I've seen on RUclips (I'm looking at _you,_ Umami,) that's a pretty accurate assessment, Man Carrying Our Weight in Imagination.
I GENUINELY thought this was a sketch about those stupid in-depth videos of the history of TV. Instead, he's gone full circle and made it unironically.

- Legitimately the single most relatable thing you have ever said.
I like this format, I love that you're able to juggle between this type of analytical content and short comedy skits, I'd love to see more! Well done
Wow, a long man video. That's incredible.
I just, like, yesterday read that article in the „New Yorker” that you mentioned here and I must say there are some pretty sound conclusions there. This is why I subscribe to that magazine - their work is somehow consistently well-researched while still being really engaging. It’s like RUclips long-form videos, but, you know, text. Like it’s almost as if the quality RUclipsrs took their best practices from quality journalism that existed before them. Makes you think 🤔
After watching I can confirm that this man indeed does carry this thing
I watched so many of MCT’s skits that I forgot that he also made long analytic videos 💀
The absolute miss! He never legends!
Thanks Babble, I appreciate you making this video
Absolute legend never misses
After like 45 seconds I legit got confused about why the video hadn't stop yet and I moved my mouse and I saw that the video was NINE MINUTES LONG? WHAT? I had not anticipated to watch a video longer than 30 seconds, I wasn't prepared.
some of the best tv shows ive ever seen have come out in the last couple years. Ted Lasso, Shrinking, The Boys, Reacher. While I think the streaming services do have alot of problems, mainly revolving around greed and not paying the creators what their worth, I also think that people are always saying something is dead/dying. Especially with tv/movies andmusic, people are always complaining that nothing good is coming out currently, I say those people just arent putting any effort into looking for it.
It's almost as if these people exclusively watch Marvel and Star Wars shit... which yeah maybe they should find other things to watch.
This is like the only good comment I've seen from this echo chamber comment section
"Usually I just passive-aggressively express myself through skits"
That last line came across as *so* passive-aggressive though!
And Thing turned to Man and asked "Man, you said that when I followed you, you would be there walking besides me. But looking back on my footprints in the sand, I only see one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most, you weren't there for me." And Man replied to Thing and said "My precious, precious child. I was always there with you, but during the most difficult times in your life, it was then that I carried you..."
More hot takes!!! The world hungers for hot takes!! The hot take industrial complex hungers for hot takes!!!
Man, I know you CARRY things, but I really think this format of yours CARRIES the modern day current RUclips thats loaded with reaction content. Please CARRY on coz we really need that, you're interesting, yes. Bye. 😊
