There’s nothing better when the comments to a blog post are as rich as the blog post itself.
There’s a host of them for this post about NBC bucking tradition by producing TV shows throughout the year. This one is particularly right on:
Hey [Jeff] Zucker [CEO, NBC] - since you claim Tv needs to be changed - how about NOT noting to death the new projects - since 9 out of 10 shows fail under the current - let’s give notes and test everything to death concept - what have you got to lose? Go back to the old MTM Studio way - hire really talented writers and let them create the shows they want - they also might fail but at least it will be the writer’s original vision - you might get the next All In The Family, Mary TYler Moore Show or Seinfeld this way!

Think about it. The networks still have to come up with new forms of production/distribution - this won’t let them off the hook - but starting with truly creative shows will make all the difference.
Marky256 is exactly right: take the reins off the writers while the system is in flux.
