TV Tuesday: Looking Back

[yourlibrarian]

Many people would agree that TV shows have been increasingly well told and produced over the decades. Budgets factor into that as CGI has both raised and lowered certain costs (depending on the type of show) and the level of animation for series has also improved.

What shows do you think have benefited from the improvement in effects, sets, number of location shoots, and other changes from shows in the 20th century? Are there any shows you think were turning points for the industry?

I feel like Sense8 set a really high bar for location shooting, and I really appreciated that aspect of it. It added so much richness to the story.

That's a great example, it really was spectacular to see all those locations.

Yeah. Thinking about it more, I really liked how the storylines were integrated into the locations and cultures, too. It wasn't just James Bond swanning around against a lot of different backdrops, but a show that really engaged with its range of characters. ♥
