Comeback der Serienformate?

Schaut man nach Amerika, so scheint die Zeit der Shows - insbesondere die der Reality-Shows - vorbei zu sein. Jedenfalls nach Meinung von USA Today (14.8.2006):

“… Promise appears to have overshadowed potential drawbacks. Networks are rolling out the largest number of continuing stories in recent memory. ABC’s The Nine and Day Break, CBS’ Jericho and NBC’s Kidnapped join Vanished as dramas with mysteries that will unfold over the season.

They join a broad range of series, from soapy Desperate Housewives to veteran ER, that feature some form of continuing stories that demand — and often reward — a degree of weekly vigilance from viewers.

“We’re all going to learn a lot about what works and what doesn’t,” says Fox entertainment chief Peter Liguori.

TV executives say this is likely the peak year for serials, and NBC entertainment chief Kevin Reilly acknowledges there are probably more than viewers can handle. But he considers the surplus a healthy sign. “We should applaud the range of creativity. It would be more distressing for the business if we had a lot of traditional franchise shows.” (USA Today 2006/8/14)
