Nowhere is that more clear than in the field of dramas. Once often content to air reruns, cable networks are busy establishing themselves as creators. There are 180 scripted original series on cable this year, up from 22 in 2002, said John Landgraf, FX network chief. Services like Netflix are jumping in, too. More impor- tant than numbers is the perception that cable is the place to turn for quality. It started with “The Sopranos,” and continues with awards and critical attention show- ered on the likes of “Mad Men,” “Homeland” and “Breaking Bad.” The idea is reinforced when many of television’s key creative minds argue that cable is the place to be. Marc Cherry, creator of “Desperate Housewives,” said that making the soap “Devious Maids” for Lifetime “has been just a joyous creative experience.” To be fair, Cherry took “Devious Maids” to ABC first and was rejected. Now he revels in the creative freedom, saying he gets less second-guessing. Cherry said he has more time to work on the writing, and can include more intricate details. After acknowledging now that he went into the critically drubbed second season of “Desperate Housewives” with no plan, he learned he needs to have an idea of what will happen in a second season before beginning the first. Cable offers a measure of security that broadcast- ers, with more intense commercial pressures, can’t match. A cable series is rarely canceled in the middle of a season. The grind of a typical broadcast schedule, requiring some 22 episodes a year, also wears on cre- ators - particularly now that they see an alternative. Most cable “seasons” are half that, or less. That improves quality, Lindelof said. “You’re not needing to fill weeks of story that are non-essential,” he said. “So, hopefully, every episode of ‘The Leftovers’ will feel like it needs to exist versus it’s just this very kind of fibrous bridge that exists between two essential episodes which all of us as TV fans, you know, really find incredibly frustrating to watch.” Before one conference last week, producers of several CBS dramas admitted grumbling backstage about their workload. “That’s an insatiable appetite,” said Jonathan Nolan, “Person of Interest” executive producer, “which is a great thing that the audience wants more of what you’re making, but it is very difficult. I feel like that number is probably calibrated ... not to the length of the season or production schedules, but to the exact point at which a showrunner (producer) will have a nervous breakdown.” What Nolan finds exciting about being on CBS is the immediacy, writing a scene and seeing it on the air a few weeks later. It’s not like broadcasters are bereft. CBS’ “The Good Wife,” NBC’s “The Blacklist” and ABC’s “Scandal” are popular and creatively strong. Broadcasters still have a reach that cable networks can’t match. Television’s most popular show, “NCIS” on CBS, has roughly 20 million viewers for each new episode, twice as much as AMC’s buzz wor- thy “The Walking Dead.” “It’s a privilege to reach an audience the size that we’re able to reach in broadcast,” said “NCIS” executive producer Gary Glasberg. “The fact that we’re in our 11th season and we have the viewership that we do, 18 million Facebook fans, that’s crazy. And, you know, that’s because I’m on broadcast.” Networks are now looking for more limited-run series. Over the past year, CBS, NBC and Fox have each assigned executives to look specifically for these types of projects. Veteran producer Mark Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey, successful with “The Bible” miniseries on History last year, signed with CBS to adapt “The Dovekeepers” to television for a miniseries. Kevin Reilly, Fox entertainment president, said he’s doing away with broadcast’s traditional pilot season, where networks make test episodes of dozens of prospective series and choose among them during a furious couple of weeks in the spring. That’s a nod to cable: Reilly wants to take more time developing series to work out kinks and have a better idea of how it will work. Not everyone fully agrees with him, but change is in the air. — AP 00:15 Just Crazy Enough-PG15 02:00 Here Comes The Boom-PG15 04:00 Mandie And The Secret Tunnel-PG 06:00 The Double-PG15 08:00 George Harrison: Living In The Material World-PG15 11:30 Dead Lines-PG15 13:15 Here Comes The Boom-PG15 15:00 A Heartbeat Away-PG15 16:30 The Double-PG15 18:15 Bernie-PG15 20:00 The Expendables 2-PG15 22:00 Age Of Heroes-PG15 00:00 Engineering Connections 01:00 Banged Up Abroad 02:00 Breakout 03:00 Salvage Code Red 04:00 What Would Happen If 04:30 What Would Happen If 05:00 Prehistoric Predators 06:00 Salvage Code Red 07:00 Megacities 08:00 Engineering Connections 09:00 Banged Up Abroad 10:00 Breakout 11:00 Salvage Code Red 12:00 Aftermath 13:00 Prehistoric Predators 14:00 Salvage Code Red 15:00 Megacities 16:00 Megastructures 17:00 Banged Up Abroad 18:00 Banged Up Abroad 04:00 I Don’t Know How She Does It-PG15 06:00 Smooch-PG15 08:00 New Year’s Eve-PG15 10:00 Gabe The Cupid Dog-PG 12:00 I Don’t Know How She Does It-PG15 14:00 A Thousand Words-PG15 16:00 Gabe The Cupid Dog-PG 18:00 Fun Size-PG15 20:00 Spy Hard-PG15 22:00 The Angel’s Share-PG15

Dramas show rapid change in television
Creators of two of the most indelible dra-mas on network television last decade,“Lost” and “Desperate Housewives,” aremaking programs for cable networks now,and they speak with the zeal of the happilyconverted. “Now that we’re all here togeth-er, we can definitively agree that cable isfar superior to network,” said DamonLindelof, who worked on ABC’s “Lost” andis making a similarly complex new pro-gram for HBO, “The Leftovers.” The chang-ing balance of power - and how proudbroadcasters are fighting back - is the sub-text to meetings with television industryleaders and reporters in Pasadena thismonth. Nowhere is that more clear than inthe field of dramas.
Once often content to air reruns, cable networksare busy establishing themselves as creators. There are180 scripted original series on cable this year, up from22 in 2002, said John Landgraf, FX network chief.Services like Netflix are jumping in, too. More impor-tant than numbers is the perception that cable is theplace to turn for quality. It started with “The Sopranos,”and continues with awards and critical attention show-ered on the likes of “Mad Men,” “Homeland” and“Breaking Bad.” The idea is reinforced when many oftelevision’s key creative minds argue that cable is theplace to be.
Marc Cherry, creator of “Desperate Housewives,”said that making the soap “Devious Maids” for Lifetime“has been just a joyous creative experience.” To be fair,Cherry took “Devious Maids” to ABC first and wasrejected. Now he revels in the creative freedom, sayinghe gets less second-guessing. Cherry said he has moretime to work on the writing, and can include more
intricate details. After acknowledging now that hewent into the critically drubbed second season of“Desperate Housewives” with no plan, he learned heneeds to have an idea of what will happen in a secondseason before beginning the first.
Cable offers a measure of security that broadcast-ers, with more intense commercial pressures, can’tmatch. A cable series is rarely canceled in the middleof a season. The grind of a typical broadcast schedule,requiring some 22 episodes a year, also wears on cre-ators - particularly now that they see an alternative.Most cable “seasons” are half that, or less. Thatimproves quality, Lindelof said.
“You’re not needing to fill weeks of story that arenon-essential,” he said. “So, hopefully, every episode of‘The Leftovers’ will feel like it needs to exist versus it’sjust this very kind of fibrous bridge that existsbetween two essential episodes which all of us as TVfans, you know, really find incredibly frustrating towatch.” Before one conference last week, producers ofseveral CBS dramas admitted grumbling backstageabout their workload.
“That’s an insatiable appetite,” said Jonathan Nolan,“Person of Interest” executive producer, “which is agreat thing that the audience wants more of whatyou’re making, but it is very difficult. I feel like thatnumber is probably calibrated ... not to the length ofthe season or production schedules, but to the exactpoint at which a showrunner (producer) will have anervous breakdown.” What Nolan finds exciting aboutbeing on CBS is the immediacy, writing a scene andseeing it on the air a few weeks later. It’s not likebroadcasters are bereft. CBS’ “The Good Wife,” NBC’s“The Blacklist” and ABC’s “Scandal” are popular andcreatively strong. Broadcasters still have a reach thatcable networks can’t match. Television’s most popularshow, “NCIS” on CBS, has roughly 20 million viewers foreach new episode, twice as much as AMC’s buzz wor-thy “The Walking Dead.”
“It’s a privilege to reach an audience the size thatwe’re able to reach in broadcast,” said “NCIS” executiveproducer Gary Glasberg. “The fact that we’re in our11th season and we have the viewership that we do,18 million Facebook fans, that’s crazy. And, you know,that’s because I’m on broadcast.” Networks are nowlooking for more limited-run series. Over the past year,CBS, NBC and Fox have each assigned executives tolook specifically for these types of projects. Veteranproducer Mark Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey,successful with “The Bible” miniseries on History lastyear, signed with CBS to adapt “The Dovekeepers” totelevision for a miniseries.
Kevin Reilly, Fox entertainment president, said he’sdoing away with broadcast’s traditional pilot season,where networks make test episodes of dozens ofprospective series and choose among them during afurious couple of weeks in the spring. That’s a nod tocable: Reilly wants to take more time developingseries to work out kinks and have a better idea ofhow it will work. Not everyone fully agrees with him,but change is in the air. — AP
