Pilots: is it possible that streaming has ruined scripted shows for the traditional TV networks? I can’t be bothered to tune into overproduced, underacted, and uninteresting dramas and comedies that basically haven’t changed in decades that also require manufactured TV ad pauses, when I can binge watch highly produced and well-acted series that don’t have to follow traditional TV formats.
I chortle every time I turn on a sporting event and “reality” shows that have been around for 20+ seasons and the plethora talent-less shows are hawked at every commercial break alongside the same dramas that have been aired in various iterations. YES, ANOTHER NCIS/CSI/911/LAW AND ORDER!!!! Wooohoooooooooooooooooooooo?

I remember a documentary film from 1989 about deep water diving where the divers used an oxygenated fluid instead of a gas mixture.
