“A documentary that explores the world of U.S. television showrunners and the creative forces aligned around them.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAlthough I am a huge fans of movies and have a rather solid understanding of their production and creation, I must confess I never really thought about television. I pictured it being similar, though on a smaller scale. This documentary shows that my belief is not accurate: in many ways, television is on a much larger scale, and certainly requires a greater capacity for creativity when new ideas have to be generated each week.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTouching on u0026quot;Lostu0026quot; was great, because it was a show many people (myself included) were addicted to. There is still debate over whether the creators really knew where the story was headed, and how much had to be invented along the way. Few, if any, of the fans were satisfied… could this have been rectified?”
