They probably do better to put more work into writing a guide for approved writers.
So many (many) shows with great actors completely let down by terrible scripts....
- usui 5y agoI agree so much. The recent Cowboy Bebop TV show had decent casting and high production value but the worst writing I've seen in a very long time. It was like watching The Room for TV shows. It's no surprise it got canceled. I really wish their writers could be better.
- WalterBright 5y agoLet's just add some explosions! That'll fix a terrible script. The king of witless, trite scripts has got to be the recent "La Brea" series. There's such a lack of creativity that the characters recycle each others lines.
- laurent92 5y agoLet me bet, they stare at each other to express feelings, very very often as a way of stretching the duration of scenes?
- WalterBright 5y agoThey'd say things like "I promise I'll come back for you", and "I can't leave XXX" ad infinitum. They'd also do the usual plot device of splitting up and wandering around alone, for the sole purpose of getting into a fix so everyone else can rescue them. Although sabre tooth tigers and dire wolves regularly eat the red shirts, the rest never think of arming themselves. I watched the show out of incredulousness. And because I enjoy snarking on bad shows :-)
- bagacrap 5y agoyes but this has worked to create uniformly beautiful "netflix original" documentaries
