Review of 'Revolution Was Televised' on 'Storygraph'

If you think something is different in the the television landscape of the early 21st century, you'd be right. This book, by critic Alan Sepinwall looks at 12 TV programs and how they changed viewing now and perhaps forever.

Be warned: This is not a series of recaps and strains of gossip and "hey-cool-Walter-White-ate-his-own-thumb!" moments. This is a thrilling-to-red sociological and cultural look at where TV was before a mid-level thug named Tony Soprano decided he needed therapy and where we are now.

I read it in three days. And want to dive right back in and read it all again. After I watch an ungodly amount of television.

More, Alan Sepinwall! More!
