almadar: Don't do ironing if interested

at Oct 31, 2013 - 4:58 PM

Hi. I find it interesting that network execs assume people doing ironing while show is on. The irony of that is that it is true that during a network show I will assume I can walk away, take out trash or even walk down to walgreens and not feel like I missed something but I will not budge from something like Mad Men. With online viewing I plan the time to watch something I anticipate will be good. Network is conditioned the other way.

You say that one of the conventions of the comedy genre is that "nobody gets hurt," yet the creators of South Park seem to cross this line regularly. How do they get away with it?

You say that all scenes are essentially dialogue. Can you explain this concept in the context of a long speech, which might traditionally be thought of as a monologue?
