It would be nice to say I hear it mostly from a particular demographic and at a specific time of the year. In fact, I hear it from people of all ages, sexes and throughout... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37515.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT In the days of All in the Family, Get Smart and The Dick Van Dyke Show, fall was traditionally the season for premieres of TV shows, but TV and its calendar aren’t what they used to be. New shows appear throughout the year now, but TV’s roots run deep. As you can see in this guide to new cable... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37516.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT Battlestar Galactica Fans may never agree on the best science fiction TV series of all time. But Syfy’s (then Sci Fi Channel’s) Battlestar Galactica, which ended its fabulous six-season run this year, may be the first series since Star Trek to carve out its own niche of sci-fi excellence. And it... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37517.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT WINNER: MAD MEN, AMC Last year’s Best New Cable Program is this year’s Best Program. No doubt, Matthew Weiner’s creation escaped a sophomore slump. Even The Sopranos couldn’t do that. Indeed we’d argue Mad Men season 2 was superior to its fine freshman year. While season 1... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37518.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT CO-WINNER: BRITZ, BBC AMERICA Yes, it’s a cliché but this 2-part, post 9/11 drama about a brother and sister who are university students and Muslims contained thrills and chills. The brother loves his new country Britain, the sister hates it, especially its anti-terrorism laws, which fuel her... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37519.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT WINNER: ELISABETH MOSS, MAD MEN, AMC Seeking nominations for CableFAX’s Most Powerful Women in Cable edition, our Steve Goldstein wrote, "For those of you with short memories — or relatively recent birth dates — it wasn’t too long ago that women in the workplace were relegated... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37520.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT WINNER: BRYAN CRANSTON, BREAKING BAD, AMC Who didn’t love Bryan Cranston in Malcolm in the Middle? The goofy faces. The Jacques Clouseau-esque bumbling. A court jester surrounded by a family of court jesters. Apparently, playtime is over. Cranston’s brilliant turn as cancer-stricken drug dealer... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37521.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT WINNER: SONS OF ANARCHY, FX So this new show follows a crime boss, his gang and a volatile protégé whose girlfriend is played by Drea de Matteo. No this isn’t 1999, and we’re not talking about The Sopranos. This is completely different — however inspired by our same... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37522.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT WINNER: CLARK JOHNSON, THE SHIELD, FX While most great TV shows fizzle and sputter out, The Shield kept getting better every season as it established FX as home base for the type of quality original drama that had previously existed only on broadcast TV and premium cable. As an actor and director, Clark... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37523.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT WINNERS: MATTHEW WEINER AND SCOTT HORNBACHER, MAD MEN, AMC Honoring Weiner (top) and Hornbacher is particularly appropriate since the series’ production elements are critical to its tremendous success. Half the fun of Mad Men are the 1960s clothes, the hats (on men and women), the furniture, the cars... http://www.cable360.net/cablefaxmag/programmies/37524.html Wed, 16 Sep 2009 0:00:00 EDT
