12.14 | How 24 Revolutionized TV
The Watching '24' blog has a good post up: How '24' Revolutionized TV.
'24' has become an icon in television viewing. The television world has become serialized due in large part to '24's success. I really think that '24' changed the way we view TV. Networks are realizing that we as a viewing audience can follow a show from week to week, season to season without becoming lost. We don’t need everything spelled out for us in one episode. In consequence the networks have had to up the ante and give us higher quality more complex shows. '24’s success has truly been instrumental in altering the TV world.
There's some other good thoughts as well.
