I...I still haven't seen Arrested Development... I think I'm the only hold-out left in the world. D:<br /><br />You make a great point - hit TV shows require top-notch writing and storytelling, too. Sometimes I forget that because I'm not physically reading the words, but someone still had to write them down. <br /><br />That Easter Egg quality is really nifty. I'm going to have to remember that during my latest round of revisions.???https://www.blogger.com/profile/06931897373435075660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762330519599483179.post-8818983089752322612010-05-28T10:59:43.559-04:002010-05-28T10:59:43.559-04:00i loved the lost finale quite a bit.

I simply have to watch TV series from the beginning.<br /><br />I've only watched seasons 1-4 of LOST but I know why it had me hooked writing-wise even though not much of it made sense.<br /><br />It's the Easter-egg factor. How they managed to have all of these characters tied together, not only from being on the island but also their past histories are interlinked. It's wonderful. It's the ability to reveal new thinks to the viewer each time they watch the show again.<br /><br />I want to be able to have that in my writing. I want to be able to write a novel where my readers can pick it up again and have an entirely new insight and discover new things they didn't see before.<br /><br />J.K. Rowling did this really well in the Harry Potter books. You can read the earlier books again and understand or spot something you may not have before reading the later books. It's extremely clever.<br /><br />I love television and even though it is a huge form of procrastination for me (I'm not deprived as you are so I'm swarmed by so many programs) I do find them inspiring.♥Kerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02798087116747300452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762330519599483179.post-33310583632740144262010-05-28T01:46:30.401-04:002010-05-28T01:46:30.401-04:00My writing instructor always yelled at us if we di...My writing instructor always yelled at us if we didn't watch enough TV. He would bring in TV shows and take us through them minute by minute and explain all of the different things we could get out of them. One of his favorites to discuss was My So Called Life.Jessica Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382996481558671385noreply@blogger.com
