Perfect example of why the medium of television is at once an excellent and a terrible vehicle for storytelling. Excellent because groundbreaking and inventive stories have a better shot of reaching an audience without the high budget pressure of Hollywood, and terrible because they can only survive by appealing to the lowest-common-denominator of idiot television viewers.
