Initial reviews of one of the shows poised to take over the mantle of Mad Men and Breaking Bad - Low Winter Sun - have been negative all around. AMC seems to be trying to replicate the formula that made those two shows so successful, but in doing so have somehow created an empty shell that has no resonance with the audience. It's looking like it might take a while before AMC finds itself a winner again. The channel that seems to be poised to take up the mantle is FX. John Landgraf, the CEO, is one of the few executives who seems to really care about the quality of the shows he's responsible for. Justified is easily among the top tier of shows airing today. Louie is most likely the first of an entirely new genre of autobiographical shows that blend drama and comedy. The Americans is one of the best shows to premiere in 2013. They might just have a shot at this if they could only pick up some awards attention. |
