It wasn’t a daily 12 months, this 2023. Writers had been on strike; actors had been on strike. “Succession” lurched into the grave. Martha the Medicare Woman was making individuals crazier than they already had been. And you already know what? Shingles doesn’t care.
That stated, I had assumed that this retrospective examination and contemplation of TV within the 12 months ’23 was destined to be in regards to the new. The novel. The modern. Which is counterintuitive, to make certain: Tv is a medium—or an business, or no matter it’s—that appears passionately devoted to the concept that viewers don’t wish to really feel too passionately about something, or have their equilibrium disturbed or their worldview assaulted. Therefore the flourishing enterprise of sport reveals, “unscripted” celebrity-reality collection and nonfiction programming about serial murderers, that are at all times comforting to these of us not being murdered.
