This is an historic moment and the end of an era so what better way to experience it than with a live blog of this single minute preview?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPwaCjE8DcY\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:01: Only took one second to get to the mournful piano keys. Gird yourselves!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:03: Carson is packing a suitcase! Where will he go? Probably Hollywood, where he will pitch the idea for a sitcom about the travails of an out-of-place British butler ;v must change with the times. The show will be titled \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IUSSrldd0U\" target=\"_blank\">Mr. Belvedere\u003c/a>\u003c/em> and run for six seasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:07: Lord Grantham condescendingly lectures Carson about how you can't resist time or progress, despite the fact that he tried to do just that every moment of the previous five seasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:10: The producers obviously told this musician to get as close to that sad, one-eyed dog Sarah McLachlan song as possible. \u003cem>We want all the feels!\u003c/em> they probably yelled. They could have saved time and just used this Green Day song:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=40&v=CnQ8N1KacJc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:14: Thomas walks through an empty room. If the Crawleys aren't already bankrupt, they will be after what's sure to be a massive U-Haul bill. All those famous paintings and their gilded frames, the ornate rugs, the canopy beds! Not to mention that huge gramophone that really pissed off the Dowager that one time!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:15: Lady Mary and Daisy turn and are really surprised...like Beyonce-just-dropped-a-whole-album-with-music-videos-on-a-quiet-Friday-night surprised. Maybe Sybil walked in wearing whatever 1927's version of harem pants is and everything that \"happened\" after her \"death\" was a preeclampsia fever dream? Make it right, Julian Fellowes, make it right!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:17: Thomas opens a door and seems really over it all. All that meddling and scheming and lurking and he's still stuck in a job he hates without a make out buddy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:19: The father of Daisy's late sort-of husband hugs her while looking at the stone house that will now be hers. Dear kids, stay in school...and be too polite to say \"yeah, no\" when a dying guy you've gone on zero dates with asks you to marry him. You'll get a cute rent-controlled place out of it!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:20: Lady Edith is wearing gems on her forehead! I also spy a lemon twist in a half-empty cocktail glass. So I'm going to assume the writers have had their fill of making her utterly miserable and are going to let her drink gin and flirt and stop sobbing in corners. Yeah, probably not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:22: Anna smiles because her Debbie Downer husband isn't around. We smile too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:23: Mrs. Patmore dances in the kitchen with a cop because she deserves a break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:24: Mrs. Hughes smiles because Anna's Debbie Downer husband isn't around. We smile again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:25: Carson weirdly pets a bedspread.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:29: Anna attempts to have a heart-to-heart with Mary. Mary cannot oblige because she is a sociopath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:32: There's a net connected to Mary's bowler hat. It's raining. Mary gets wet, while walking with a purpose. She knows what she must do: she must kill her annoying sister.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:33: Why did it take 33 seconds to get a shot of Maggie Smith? If they want us to watch, the first 33 seconds should have just been the Dowager eating soup really primly or rolling her eyes at loud birds or something. Know your audience!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:35: Carson kisses Mrs. Hughes...on the forehead. At this rate, one of them will die before they get around to having sex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:37: Daisy is still super stoked about the house she got out of pretending to be in love with a dead person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:38: Anna's Debbie Downer husband is back. Her smile is replaced with sobbing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:40: Someone drives recklessly. Haven't we learned anything from Matthew's sudden demise?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:41: Thomas walks in on the new guy doing something weird and maybe sexual. Oo la la!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:42: The servants are at church ceremony. Thomas and new guy get married?! Nope, gotta wait approximately 100 years for that one. It's probably Mrs. Hughes and Carson. You should have dated a little before you committed to a lifetime of forehead kisses, Mrs. Hughes!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:44: Mary feels an emotion! Or maybe she's just mocking Edith again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:45: The babies run adorably. Sybbie is in America though so we don't care that much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:46: I knew the forehead jewels and cocktails wouldn't last. Edith is distraught again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:47: Daisy finds out some really good gossip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:49: The Dowager makes a cute face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:52: The Crawleys get out of their cars and look up at what's probably their new digs. Smaller circular driveway off of a major road (can you imagine?!) and probably a smaller moat too. Hard times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:56: A British lady reminds us that people in the UK will be able to watch the new season starting in September, while all of us Yanks have to wait 'til 2016. All these years later and this arrangement still makes zero sense. And this is the final time we get to complain about it so make it good!\u003c/p>\n\n",

If the Crawleys aren't already bankrupt, they will be after what's sure to be a massive U-Haul bill. All those famous paintings and their gilded frames, the ornate rugs, the canopy beds! Not to mention that huge gramophone that really pissed off the Dowager that one time!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:15: Lady Mary and Daisy turn and are really surprised...like Beyonce-just-dropped-a-whole-album-with-music-videos-on-a-quiet-Friday-night surprised. Maybe Sybil walked in wearing whatever 1927's version of harem pants is and everything that \"happened\" after her \"death\" was a preeclampsia fever dream? Make it right, Julian Fellowes, make it right!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:17: Thomas opens a door and seems really over it all. All that meddling and scheming and lurking and he's still stuck in a job he hates without a make out buddy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:19: The father of Daisy's late sort-of husband hugs her while looking at the stone house that will now be hers. Dear kids, stay in school...and be too polite to say \"yeah, no\" when a dying guy you've gone on zero dates with asks you to marry him. You'll get a cute rent-controlled place out of it!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:20: Lady Edith is wearing gems on her forehead! I also spy a lemon twist in a half-empty cocktail glass. So I'm going to assume the writers have had their fill of making her utterly miserable and are going to let her drink gin and flirt and stop sobbing in corners. Yeah, probably not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:22: Anna smiles because her Debbie Downer husband isn't around. We smile too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:23: Mrs. Patmore dances in the kitchen with a cop because she deserves a break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:24: Mrs. Hughes smiles because Anna's Debbie Downer husband isn't around. We smile again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:25: Carson weirdly pets a bedspread.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:29: Anna attempts to have a heart-to-heart with Mary. Mary cannot oblige because she is a sociopath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:32: There's a net connected to Mary's bowler hat. It's raining. Mary gets wet, while walking with a purpose. She knows what she must do: she must kill her annoying sister.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:33: Why did it take 33 seconds to get a shot of Maggie Smith? If they want us to watch, the first 33 seconds should have just been the Dowager eating soup really primly or rolling her eyes at loud birds or something. Know your audience!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:35: Carson kisses Mrs. Hughes...on the forehead. At this rate, one of them will die before they get around to having sex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:37: Daisy is still super stoked about the house she got out of pretending to be in love with a dead person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:38: Anna's Debbie Downer husband is back. Her smile is replaced with sobbing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:40: Someone drives recklessly. Haven't we learned anything from Matthew's sudden demise?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:41: Thomas walks in on the new guy doing something weird and maybe sexual. Oo la la!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:42: The servants are at church ceremony. Thomas and new guy get married?! Nope, gotta wait approximately 100 years for that one. It's probably Mrs. Hughes and Carson. You should have dated a little before you committed to a lifetime of forehead kisses, Mrs. Hughes!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:44: Mary feels an emotion! Or maybe she's just mocking Edith again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:45: The babies run adorably. Sybbie is in America though so we don't care that much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:46: I knew the forehead jewels and cocktails wouldn't last. Edith is distraught again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:47: Daisy finds out some really good gossip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:49: The Dowager makes a cute face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:52: The Crawleys get out of their cars and look up at what's probably their new digs. Smaller circular driveway off of a major road (can you imagine?!) and probably a smaller moat too. Hard times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>0:56: A British lady reminds us that people in the UK will be able to watch the new season starting in September, while all of us Yanks have to wait 'til 2016. All these years later and this arrangement still makes zero sense. And this is the final time we get to complain about it so make it good!\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

She was 78.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Craig died at her home in Pacific Palisades, Calif., as a result of complications from breast cancer that had spread to her liver. In a \u003ca href=\"http://www.yvonnecraig.com/news/2015/08/19/a-word-from-yvonne-craigs-family/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement posted to her website\u003c/a>, family members said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“She had been in chemo almost continuously for the past two plus years since being diagnosed and that had weakened her immune system as well as her body. This didn’t dampen her sense of humor or her spirit, she intended to fight and win this battle. In the end, her mind still wanted to fight but her body had given up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Craig was a trained dancer who had studied at the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo and toured for three years. Those dancing skills came in handy when the character of Batgirl debuted on ABC’s popular superhero crime-fighting series in 1967. Craig was able to perform her own stunts alongside Adam West, who played Batman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As with many characters on the show, she had to play two roles. By day, she was librarian Barbara Gordon, daughter of Gotham City police Commissioner James Gordon. But in times of need, she transformed into the caped crusader fighting crime alongside Batman and Robin. She even had a purple motorcycle with white lace trim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Star Trek\u003c/em> fans will remember Craig’s work, too. She played Marta, the green-skinned Orion slave girl who wanted to kill Captain Kirk in Season 3.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1H2QvmWLT4s\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other roles include the 1963 movie \u003cem>It Happened at the World’s Fair\u003c/em> and 1964’s \u003cem>Kissin’ Cousins\u003c/em>, both staring Elvis Presley. She also made guest appearances on popular TV shows throughout the 1970s, including \u003cem>Starsky & Hutch\u003c/em>, \u003cem>The Six Million Dollar Man\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Kojak\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More recently, she did voice work for the Nickelodeon animated series \u003cem>Olivia \u003c/em>about an imaginative and creative pig.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Outside of acting, Craig had a real-estate career and also was involved with philanthropy. She was an advocate for workers unions, free mammograms and equal pay for women.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family’s statement said Craig had two wishes:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“Wish Number One, is that her family, friends and fans would know how much she loved them and always treasured her time with them. Wish Number Two, was that no one waste a moment of their time in mourning for her loss in sadness but instead celebrate the awesome life she had been fortunate enough to live. She felt that she lived a wonderful life and was blessed in many ways.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Craig is survived by her husband, Kenneth Aldrich, as well as by her sister, Meridel Carson, and nephews Christopher and Todd Carson. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10905405\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 474px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/yvonne-craig-as-marta-0f837dba4f4d8c9ea36843eebd0606b03d91f289.jpg\" alt=\"Yvonne Craig appears in a publicity photo for the TV series Star Trek in 1969.

She was 78.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Craig died at her home in Pacific Palisades, Calif., as a result of complications from breast cancer that had spread to her liver. In a \u003ca href=\"http://www.yvonnecraig.com/news/2015/08/19/a-word-from-yvonne-craigs-family/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement posted to her website\u003c/a>, family members said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“She had been in chemo almost continuously for the past two plus years since being diagnosed and that had weakened her immune system as well as her body. This didn’t dampen her sense of humor or her spirit, she intended to fight and win this battle. In the end, her mind still wanted to fight but her body had given up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Craig was a trained dancer who had studied at the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo and toured for three years. Those dancing skills came in handy when the character of Batgirl debuted on ABC’s popular superhero crime-fighting series in 1967. Craig was able to perform her own stunts alongside Adam West, who played Batman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As with many characters on the show, she had to play two roles. By day, she was librarian Barbara Gordon, daughter of Gotham City police Commissioner James Gordon. But in times of need, she transformed into the caped crusader fighting crime alongside Batman and Robin. She even had a purple motorcycle with white lace trim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Star Trek\u003c/em> fans will remember Craig’s work, too. She played Marta, the green-skinned Orion slave girl who wanted to kill Captain Kirk in Season 3.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>This is one in a series of essays running this week and next about the state of television in 2015. The series is based on developments at the recent Television Critics Association press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif., where broadcast and cable networks, along with streaming services like Netflix, presented new and existing shows to TV critics and reporters.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is a secret only intermittently discussed that the anointed Golden Age Of Television is also very often The Golden Age Of Nobody Knowing What The Frosted Flakes Is Going On, and one of the reasons for that is that nobody even knows for sure what it means to watch television anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let’s take a quick romp through an existential crisis on which we touched previously: What even \u003cem>is\u003c/em> television? (If you said “a vast wasteland,” you may be watching the television of many years ago and I’d like to borrow your time machine and take a mulligan on a certain sixth-grade dance.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider a regular episode of a regular show that runs on a regular channel like HBO or CBS or SyFy. Let’s run down the number of ways a person might watch that episode. No show is going to be available in every one of these ways, of course, but there are shows where lots and lots of them are possible, and while some of them are similar, they actually all can raise slightly different challenges when you’re making, monetizing, and marketing television, not to mention measuring its audience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[A side point: “Monetize” is a terrible word; it is only human that it should make your blood turn briefly to acid and your body tense and your teeth vibrate as if the high-pitched squeal of malfunctioning audio equipment is accompanying you everywhere you go. But it’s also a handy way to pull in the many, many ways in which people try to make money from television, which include subscriptions to cable, subscriptions to online services, money from ads, individual episode purchases, other revenue streams like merchandise and songs from musical episodes, and on and on.]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So here we go.\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Using an antenna and receiving the show over the air at the time it’s first on, which is not only still possible for many of TV’s most popular shows, but could increase in popularity for people who stop paying for cable subscriptions.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a cable subscription and watching it on cable (and when I say “cable” in this list, you can assume that means “cable or satellite”) at the time it’s first on, using your television.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching it on your phone, tablet or computer, using an app or a piece of hardware that lets you stream or transfer your cable TV from your physical television to other devices.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Recording it on a DVR and watching it within a day or two.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Recording it on a DVR and watching it months later.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching a re-airing on the same network in the same week.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching a re-airing on the same network weeks or months later. (These are reruns. They are much less dependably available than they were 20 years ago.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching it someday in syndication.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching it on demand through your cable provider (like Comcast or Time Warner).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Paying for an a la carte single-network service, like the HBO NOW service that recently premiered, that serves programming to a set-top box or other device without a cable subscription.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Paying for a package of channels that can be streamed without a cable subscription, like the recently launched Sling TV.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a third-party service like Hulu with a subscription to the service (which often means shows are available pretty quickly after air).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a third-party service like Hulu without a subscription to the service (which sometimes means a longer delay before the episode is available).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a third-party service like Hulu that separately allows side subscriptions to particular premium channels for an extra cost – Hulu has just debuted this model in a partnership with Showtime.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using an app or web site owned by the network that doesn’t require a cable subscription sign-in, or an embed on another site of the video the network provides. (Like watching an episode of \u003cem>The Daily Show\u003c/em> on Comedy Central’s site or embedded on somebody else’s site.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using an app or web site owned by the network that requires that you log in with your cable subscription.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchasing the episode or the full season through a third-party seller like Amazon, Google or Apple and watching it on your computer.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchasing the episode or the full season through a third-party seller and watching it on a set-top box like Apple TV or Roku.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchasing the episode or the full season through a third-party seller and watching it on your phone or your tablet, either via download or streaming.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Waiting until it’s available free on a service like Amazon Prime, Hulu or Netflix and catching up then.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Buying a DVD set.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Checking DVDs out of the library.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching with a friend who has access through any of these methods.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Downloading a bootleg.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching a bootleg on YouTube or another similar service.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\u003cp>So that’s 25 that I can think of, 23 of them above-board (we’ll return in another piece to the two that aren’t). We are currently assuming you can’t stream television to a watch, and we are not counting Google Glass or consuming a show in the form of clips instead of full episodes (which is really common for, for instance, late-night and sketch shows). There are probably some I’m forgetting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite, or perhaps because of, this surfeit of options, this isn’t yet a smoothly functioning world of total flexibility, nor does it follow predictable rules. On the contrary, it’s often chaotic, and it can feel badly broken on the consumer side. Different shows appear on different schedules for different windows, with and without ads, free or for a price, appearing and disappearing unexpectedly. Availability changes not according to transparent rules like seasonality or logic but according to opaque ones like contract negotiations and shifting, overlapping partnerships tied to gruesome-sounding notions like corporate synergy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consumers often think about shows in terms of networks of origin, in part because that’s the way shows are still branded. It makes sense that you’d expect all shows that air on Fox or all shows that air on NBC to behave in the same way when it comes to availability, because they’re presented and marketed together as Fox shows or NBC shows. But the studio that actually makes the show and makes streaming deals may or may not be part of the network it airs on. Fun facts, for example: \u003cem>Brooklyn Nine-Nine \u003c/em>airs on Fox, but is made by Universal Television – the production arm of NBCUniversal. \u003cem>Modern Family\u003c/em> airs on ABC but is made by the production arm of 21\u003csup>st\u003c/sup> Century Fox. A whole bunch of television is made by Warner Brothers and Sony. So for the purposes of when and why a show is available other than over the air or on cable, it’s often far from obvious at whom you should even be mad if you can’t find it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All these studios and all these networks are making different choices about what to make available and when. They make different gambles about what the right strategy is – about how much to give stuff away and how much to keep it for yourself. Should you try to pull everybody into your standalone app or service? Should you have lots of partners and give away your stuff in lots of places? Should you, as a network, try to make and own more of your shows in-house rather than licensing them from other studios? That last one is very popular, in part for the never-unpopular reason that it lets you keep all the money, and nothing drives television quite like The First Law Of Conservation Of Moolah. (It also often sheds light on why borderline shows are renewed or not – again in ways that aren’t necessarily transparent to viewers.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making all of these deals gets complicated, and it leads to all kinds of suboptimal splintering. In fact, in some cases, the tail of distribution wags the dog of content creation: Ted Sarandos from Netflix said that their desire to get into making original programming wasn’t merely about a new world to conquer; it was also a helpful answer to how increasingly hard it is to wrangle acquisition and get exclusivity when you’re making streaming deals for other people’s stuff, particularly if you get into international markets. If your model is based on acting as a purveyor, why not just make shows yourself that you own and can stream around the world instead of fighting with Hulu and Amazon and whatever studio made the show over who gets to stream it in Japan?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Add, on top of these complications, the fact that there’s still a huge struggle to measure who’s watching all these shows in all these ways, not to mention which of those viewings are actually worth money. Last year at around this time, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2014/07/22/334048059/audience-measurement-how-networks-and-critics-are-wrestling-with-numbers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we talked about audience measurement\u003c/a> in ways that are mostly still applicable: mobile is hard to count, time-shifting complicates the usefulness of same-day ratings, and so forth. The question came up this year in a briefing with the audience research folks at CBS: with everything we know and everything we can track, why is it so hard to just get one number that represents how many people watch something?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The answer was essentially that in large part, \u003cem>they don’t care\u003c/em> what the total number is, because it’s not that useful. From a business perspective, knowing the total number of eyeballs pointed at something was useful when you were making money off all those eyeballs in the same way. But it’s not actually that useful to count DVR viewers together with live viewers together with same-week Hulu viewers and mobile app viewers, because advertisers are only dealing with some of those platforms at a time, and they may well be less interested in DVR viewers who skip ads, for instance. (Although my favorite statistic of press tour was CBS’s David Poltrack saying that they find that only about 50 percent of DVR ads are fast-forwarded through. 50 percent are allowed to run, which he connected to the fact that people are also on other screens at the same time, meaning they are \u003cem>too distracted to press the button on the remote\u003c/em>.) So the reason they don’t provide a total number is that they don’t really care about a total number; it’s nice for talking about cultural trends but not worth much for business, which is what ratings have always been for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider all this talk about distribution methods not in a vacuum but in combination with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2015/08/16/432458841/television-2015-is-there-really-too-much-tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">laments we discussed\u003c/a> about how hard it is to get attention for good shows in a crowded marketplace. One example and a personal story: the FX comedy \u003cem>You’re The Worst\u003c/em> – about to move to FX’s sister network FXX for a second season starting September 9 – didn’t get huge ratings in its first season. It did, however, get a ton of critical praise, making it precisely the kind of show network executives are always trying to get people to reconsider.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this summer, I was trying to catch up with it. I have what amounts to platinum cable that I pay for. I own a lot of devices that I’ve paid for. I subscribe to a lot of services that I pay for. And I couldn’t figure out how to see this show other than buying individual episodes to own forever, which was more of a commitment than I was seeking. Maybe there was a way, but I’m a reasonably decent navigator and I couldn’t find one. It wasn’t on the FX app, it wasn’t on demand through Comcast, and it wasn’t available for streaming on Hulu until August 10. Buying is always an option, of course, but when people are already paying for cable to get a particular channel \u003cem>and \u003c/em>for services that provide access to shows, it’s a lot to ask them to pay two bucks a pop on top of everything else to own episodes of a half-hour show they’re currently getting along without – at the same time the network CEO is frustrated that nobody will give anything a second chance and there’s too much competition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was bored and willing in this case, and while that’s a not-ideal reason to pick up a human in a bar, it’s a pretty good reason to pick up a television show on the internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The point of this is only to say that options for TV viewing theoretically existing in form is not the same as those options existing in practice, which means you never know when the request for more money will pop up to take them from one to the other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The topic of cord-cutting – of people doing away with cable and getting by with broadband and broadcast – is eternally popular to rhapsodize about, in part because it seems to promise an \u003cem>a la carte \u003c/em>world of convenience and freedom. And for some people, it absolutely does; it’s particularly nice for people who don’t watch much TV and don’t care whether what they watch is current.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But look again at that list of 25 ways to watch television, and consider how many potential entry points there are for your dollar even aside from cable: your device, your broadband, your service, your app. We know with reasonable certainty that in ten years, we will be looking at a different landscape. Will it be a more friendly one or a cheaper one? Not to be a cynic, but if we apply a gambling metaphor, the identity of the house hasn’t changed that much, so you have to at least \u003cem>consider \u003c/em>the possibility that as long as you want in on this particular game, the house will continue to win. Who supplies most people’s broadband? Who supplies their tech?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, the same people who make money from the way you used to watch TV in the past are, make no mistake, working very hard to make sure they will be the people who make money from the way you will watch TV in the future. Even as services like Sling TV and HBO NOW pull away from building everything on top of a cable subscription, and even as they come up with the 26\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> and 27\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> and 35\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> way to watch, the object remains the same. And it is to entertain you, perhaps to enrich you, and absolutely to charge you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Previously: \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2015/08/17/432569378/television-2015-full-drops-and-single-shots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dropping episodes all at once or one at a time\u003c/a>; \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2015/08/16/432458841/television-2015-is-there-really-too-much-tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Is there really too much television?\u003c/a> Next: Brands, huh!

The series is based on developments at the recent Television Critics Association press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif., where broadcast and cable networks, along with streaming services like Netflix, presented new and existing shows to TV critics and reporters.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is a secret only intermittently discussed that the anointed Golden Age Of Television is also very often The Golden Age Of Nobody Knowing What The Frosted Flakes Is Going On, and one of the reasons for that is that nobody even knows for sure what it means to watch television anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let’s take a quick romp through an existential crisis on which we touched previously: What even \u003cem>is\u003c/em> television? (If you said “a vast wasteland,” you may be watching the television of many years ago and I’d like to borrow your time machine and take a mulligan on a certain sixth-grade dance.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider a regular episode of a regular show that runs on a regular channel like HBO or CBS or SyFy. Let’s run down the number of ways a person might watch that episode. No show is going to be available in every one of these ways, of course, but there are shows where lots and lots of them are possible, and while some of them are similar, they actually all can raise slightly different challenges when you’re making, monetizing, and marketing television, not to mention measuring its audience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[A side point: “Monetize” is a terrible word; it is only human that it should make your blood turn briefly to acid and your body tense and your teeth vibrate as if the high-pitched squeal of malfunctioning audio equipment is accompanying you everywhere you go. But it’s also a handy way to pull in the many, many ways in which people try to make money from television, which include subscriptions to cable, subscriptions to online services, money from ads, individual episode purchases, other revenue streams like merchandise and songs from musical episodes, and on and on.]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So here we go.\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Using an antenna and receiving the show over the air at the time it’s first on, which is not only still possible for many of TV’s most popular shows, but could increase in popularity for people who stop paying for cable subscriptions.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a cable subscription and watching it on cable (and when I say “cable” in this list, you can assume that means “cable or satellite”) at the time it’s first on, using your television.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching it on your phone, tablet or computer, using an app or a piece of hardware that lets you stream or transfer your cable TV from your physical television to other devices.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Recording it on a DVR and watching it within a day or two.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Recording it on a DVR and watching it months later.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching a re-airing on the same network in the same week.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching a re-airing on the same network weeks or months later. (These are reruns. They are much less dependably available than they were 20 years ago.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching it someday in syndication.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching it on demand through your cable provider (like Comcast or Time Warner).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Paying for an a la carte single-network service, like the HBO NOW service that recently premiered, that serves programming to a set-top box or other device without a cable subscription.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Paying for a package of channels that can be streamed without a cable subscription, like the recently launched Sling TV.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a third-party service like Hulu with a subscription to the service (which often means shows are available pretty quickly after air).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a third-party service like Hulu without a subscription to the service (which sometimes means a longer delay before the episode is available).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using a third-party service like Hulu that separately allows side subscriptions to particular premium channels for an extra cost – Hulu has just debuted this model in a partnership with Showtime.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using an app or web site owned by the network that doesn’t require a cable subscription sign-in, or an embed on another site of the video the network provides. (Like watching an episode of \u003cem>The Daily Show\u003c/em> on Comedy Central’s site or embedded on somebody else’s site.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Using an app or web site owned by the network that requires that you log in with your cable subscription.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchasing the episode or the full season through a third-party seller like Amazon, Google or Apple and watching it on your computer.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchasing the episode or the full season through a third-party seller and watching it on a set-top box like Apple TV or Roku.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchasing the episode or the full season through a third-party seller and watching it on your phone or your tablet, either via download or streaming.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Waiting until it’s available free on a service like Amazon Prime, Hulu or Netflix and catching up then.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Buying a DVD set.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Checking DVDs out of the library.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching with a friend who has access through any of these methods.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Downloading a bootleg.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Watching a bootleg on YouTube or another similar service.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\u003cp>So that’s 25 that I can think of, 23 of them above-board (we’ll return in another piece to the two that aren’t). We are currently assuming you can’t stream television to a watch, and we are not counting Google Glass or consuming a show in the form of clips instead of full episodes (which is really common for, for instance, late-night and sketch shows). There are probably some I’m forgetting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On the contrary, it’s often chaotic, and it can feel badly broken on the consumer side. Different shows appear on different schedules for different windows, with and without ads, free or for a price, appearing and disappearing unexpectedly. Availability changes not according to transparent rules like seasonality or logic but according to opaque ones like contract negotiations and shifting, overlapping partnerships tied to gruesome-sounding notions like corporate synergy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consumers often think about shows in terms of networks of origin, in part because that’s the way shows are still branded. It makes sense that you’d expect all shows that air on Fox or all shows that air on NBC to behave in the same way when it comes to availability, because they’re presented and marketed together as Fox shows or NBC shows. But the studio that actually makes the show and makes streaming deals may or may not be part of the network it airs on. Fun facts, for example: \u003cem>Brooklyn Nine-Nine \u003c/em>airs on Fox, but is made by Universal Television – the production arm of NBCUniversal. \u003cem>Modern Family\u003c/em> airs on ABC but is made by the production arm of 21\u003csup>st\u003c/sup> Century Fox. A whole bunch of television is made by Warner Brothers and Sony. So for the purposes of when and why a show is available other than over the air or on cable, it’s often far from obvious at whom you should even be mad if you can’t find it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All these studios and all these networks are making different choices about what to make available and when. They make different gambles about what the right strategy is – about how much to give stuff away and how much to keep it for yourself. Should you try to pull everybody into your standalone app or service? Should you have lots of partners and give away your stuff in lots of places? Should you, as a network, try to make and own more of your shows in-house rather than licensing them from other studios? That last one is very popular, in part for the never-unpopular reason that it lets you keep all the money, and nothing drives television quite like The First Law Of Conservation Of Moolah. (It also often sheds light on why borderline shows are renewed or not – again in ways that aren’t necessarily transparent to viewers.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making all of these deals gets complicated, and it leads to all kinds of suboptimal splintering. In fact, in some cases, the tail of distribution wags the dog of content creation: Ted Sarandos from Netflix said that their desire to get into making original programming wasn’t merely about a new world to conquer; it was also a helpful answer to how increasingly hard it is to wrangle acquisition and get exclusivity when you’re making streaming deals for other people’s stuff, particularly if you get into international markets. If your model is based on acting as a purveyor, why not just make shows yourself that you own and can stream around the world instead of fighting with Hulu and Amazon and whatever studio made the show over who gets to stream it in Japan?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Add, on top of these complications, the fact that there’s still a huge struggle to measure who’s watching all these shows in all these ways, not to mention which of those viewings are actually worth money. Last year at around this time, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2014/07/22/334048059/audience-measurement-how-networks-and-critics-are-wrestling-with-numbers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we talked about audience measurement\u003c/a> in ways that are mostly still applicable: mobile is hard to count, time-shifting complicates the usefulness of same-day ratings, and so forth. The question came up this year in a briefing with the audience research folks at CBS: with everything we know and everything we can track, why is it so hard to just get one number that represents how many people watch something?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The answer was essentially that in large part, \u003cem>they don’t care\u003c/em> what the total number is, because it’s not that useful. From a business perspective, knowing the total number of eyeballs pointed at something was useful when you were making money off all those eyeballs in the same way. But it’s not actually that useful to count DVR viewers together with live viewers together with same-week Hulu viewers and mobile app viewers, because advertisers are only dealing with some of those platforms at a time, and they may well be less interested in DVR viewers who skip ads, for instance. (Although my favorite statistic of press tour was CBS’s David Poltrack saying that they find that only about 50 percent of DVR ads are fast-forwarded through. 50 percent are allowed to run, which he connected to the fact that people are also on other screens at the same time, meaning they are \u003cem>too distracted to press the button on the remote\u003c/em>.) So the reason they don’t provide a total number is that they don’t really care about a total number; it’s nice for talking about cultural trends but not worth much for business, which is what ratings have always been for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider all this talk about distribution methods not in a vacuum but in combination with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2015/08/16/432458841/television-2015-is-there-really-too-much-tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">laments we discussed\u003c/a> about how hard it is to get attention for good shows in a crowded marketplace. One example and a personal story: the FX comedy \u003cem>You’re The Worst\u003c/em> – about to move to FX’s sister network FXX for a second season starting September 9 – didn’t get huge ratings in its first season. It did, however, get a ton of critical praise, making it precisely the kind of show network executives are always trying to get people to reconsider.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this summer, I was trying to catch up with it. I have what amounts to platinum cable that I pay for. I own a lot of devices that I’ve paid for. I subscribe to a lot of services that I pay for. And I couldn’t figure out how to see this show other than buying individual episodes to own forever, which was more of a commitment than I was seeking. Maybe there was a way, but I’m a reasonably decent navigator and I couldn’t find one. It wasn’t on the FX app, it wasn’t on demand through Comcast, and it wasn’t available for streaming on Hulu until August 10. Buying is always an option, of course, but when people are already paying for cable to get a particular channel \u003cem>and \u003c/em>for services that provide access to shows, it’s a lot to ask them to pay two bucks a pop on top of everything else to own episodes of a half-hour show they’re currently getting along without – at the same time the network CEO is frustrated that nobody will give anything a second chance and there’s too much competition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was bored and willing in this case, and while that’s a not-ideal reason to pick up a human in a bar, it’s a pretty good reason to pick up a television show on the internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The point of this is only to say that options for TV viewing theoretically existing in form is not the same as those options existing in practice, which means you never know when the request for more money will pop up to take them from one to the other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The topic of cord-cutting – of people doing away with cable and getting by with broadband and broadcast – is eternally popular to rhapsodize about, in part because it seems to promise an \u003cem>a la carte \u003c/em>world of convenience and freedom. And for some people, it absolutely does; it’s particularly nice for people who don’t watch much TV and don’t care whether what they watch is current.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But look again at that list of 25 ways to watch television, and consider how many potential entry points there are for your dollar even aside from cable: your device, your broadband, your service, your app. We know with reasonable certainty that in ten years, we will be looking at a different landscape. Will it be a more friendly one or a cheaper one? Not to be a cynic, but if we apply a gambling metaphor, the identity of the house hasn’t changed that much, so you have to at least \u003cem>consider \u003c/em>the possibility that as long as you want in on this particular game, the house will continue to win. Who supplies most people’s broadband? Who supplies their tech?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, the same people who make money from the way you used to watch TV in the past are, make no mistake, working very hard to make sure they will be the people who make money from the way you will watch TV in the future. Even as services like Sling TV and HBO NOW pull away from building everything on top of a cable subscription, and even as they come up with the 26\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> and 27\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> and 35\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> way to watch, the object remains the same. And it is to entertain you, perhaps to enrich you, and absolutely to charge you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>It’s almost impossible to enter the blogosphere these days without encountering the latest about how universities continue to mishandle rape cases. There are countless articles and entire books dedicated to parsing what’s gone wrong on college campuses across the nation, and how to better handle things going forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, this past April saw the release of Jon Krakauer’s \u003cem>Missoula: Rape and the Justice System in a College Town\u003c/em>, a book that details the inadequate handling of sexual assault cases committed against female college students in Missoula, Montana over the course of two years. We’ve spent the past academic year watching Columbia student Emma Sulkowicz, who many consider to be the face of the college anti-rape movement, drag her mattress all across campus in protest of Columbia’s failure to expel her alleged rapist. In fact, in a recent \u003cem>LA Times\u003c/em> article, columnist Meghan Daum referred to the past school year as the “Year We Decided Women Aren’t Safe on College Campuses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the term “rape culture” so heavy in today’s zeitgeist, it’s hard not to feel like we’re getting it wrong all the time. But I recently came across an example of a TV show that got it right...17 years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having missed it the first time around, I began watching the late ’90s/early 2000s WB hit \u003cem>Felicity\u003c/em>. When a rape scandal began to unfold early on in the first season, I braced myself for what I knew—or what I thought I knew—was about to get very ugly. So when the show handled the plotline well, I was pleasantly surprised—shocked even.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Things start out promising for Julie (Felicity’s BFF) and Zach (played by Devon Gummersall, who will always be Brian Krakow to me). They meet in the laundry room amidst Zach realizing he’s dyed all his clothes pink, as he hasn’t yet learned to separate colors from whites. Soon they’re dining in the cafeteria together, and going to see \u003cem>Solaris\u003c/em> at the Mercer. She watches his short film, which he later asks her to record music for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There\u003cem> are\u003c/em> some signs that he’s a little weird, though. He reacts poorly when she critiques his film—even though he asks her to!—but eventually realizes his mistake and addresses it (he doesn’t actually ever apologize, though, which I almost missed). He’s a tad dramatic when she’s apprehensive about their first kiss and he responds by asking for a noose. And he gets a little momentarily aggressive in a subsequent make out sesh. But he’s also awesome. It turns out the reason Julie gets “really freaked out” when Zach kisses her is because, she tells him later, “You treat me like an actual person,” which is something she’s obviously not used to from a suitor. Felicity even tells Julie that she’s jealous of her and Zach’s “whole situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When, just a few scenes later, we watch Julie and Zach giggle their way back to her dorm room after recording music and going out—Zach has a token beer in his hand, of course!—we don’t know what’s in store. They kiss into her room, and he shuts the door behind them, ending the scene.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, we see Julie in her room folding laundry and looking despondent; she eventually tells Felicity, and then a doctor at the hospital, what happened that night with Zach. This includes that their hooking up started out as consensual and switched in the middle. Though Julie’s unsure if what happened was rape as she didn’t “scream” or “hit him,” and “he wasn’t violent,” her doctor confirms that indeed it was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s so incredible about the story line is that there’s a lot of nuance and ambiguity in these relationships and interactions. Julie and Zach liked and even respected each other; they had a good thing going; they made out for half an hour before she said she didn’t want to have sex—but it was \u003cem>still\u003c/em> rape! Because that’s the thing—rape, and especially non-stranger rape (the most common kind)—is rarely black and white; and you don’t have to be an entirely bad guy to commit it. Admittedly, this is a somewhat difficult concept to follow, let alone get right on a television show, but the fact that \u003cem>Felicity\u003c/em> goes for it and nails it, and all the way back in 1998, no less, is nothing short of revolutionary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it’s not just the nuances of the relationship that \u003cem>Felicity \u003c/em>pegs; it’s the logistics too. Felicity and Noel (her RA and sometimes love interest) seek out a school counselor to find out what Julie’s options are, and the counselor very thoroughly spells out all the avenues she can take. Buoyed along by her friends’ encouragement, Julie eventually meets with the school counselor herself, and it’s implied that it’s in this meeting that Julie reports Zach, as the next time we see him he’s being pulled out of class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While it takes Zach a while to grasp the magnitude of everything—he goes from clueless to defensive, at first—he eventually does, and the last conversation he and Julie have is surprisingly endearing.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>It’s almost impossible to enter the blogosphere these days without encountering the latest about how universities continue to mishandle rape cases. There are countless articles and entire books dedicated to parsing what’s gone wrong on college campuses across the nation, and how to better handle things going forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, this past April saw the release of Jon Krakauer’s \u003cem>Missoula: Rape and the Justice System in a College Town\u003c/em>, a book that details the inadequate handling of sexual assault cases committed against female college students in Missoula, Montana over the course of two years. We’ve spent the past academic year watching Columbia student Emma Sulkowicz, who many consider to be the face of the college anti-rape movement, drag her mattress all across campus in protest of Columbia’s failure to expel her alleged rapist. In fact, in a recent \u003cem>LA Times\u003c/em> article, columnist Meghan Daum referred to the past school year as the “Year We Decided Women Aren’t Safe on College Campuses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the term “rape culture” so heavy in today’s zeitgeist, it’s hard not to feel like we’re getting it wrong all the time. But I recently came across an example of a TV show that got it right...17 years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having missed it the first time around, I began watching the late ’90s/early 2000s WB hit \u003cem>Felicity\u003c/em>. When a rape scandal began to unfold early on in the first season, I braced myself for what I knew—or what I thought I knew—was about to get very ugly. So when the show handled the plotline well, I was pleasantly surprised—shocked even.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Things start out promising for Julie (Felicity’s BFF) and Zach (played by Devon Gummersall, who will always be Brian Krakow to me). They meet in the laundry room amidst Zach realizing he’s dyed all his clothes pink, as he hasn’t yet learned to separate colors from whites. Soon they’re dining in the cafeteria together, and going to see \u003cem>Solaris\u003c/em> at the Mercer. She watches his short film, which he later asks her to record music for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There\u003cem> are\u003c/em> some signs that he’s a little weird, though. He reacts poorly when she critiques his film—even though he asks her to!—but eventually realizes his mistake and addresses it (he doesn’t actually ever apologize, though, which I almost missed). He’s a tad dramatic when she’s apprehensive about their first kiss and he responds by asking for a noose. And he gets a little momentarily aggressive in a subsequent make out sesh. But he’s also awesome. It turns out the reason Julie gets “really freaked out” when Zach kisses her is because, she tells him later, “You treat me like an actual person,” which is something she’s obviously not used to from a suitor. Felicity even tells Julie that she’s jealous of her and Zach’s “whole situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When, just a few scenes later, we watch Julie and Zach giggle their way back to her dorm room after recording music and going out—Zach has a token beer in his hand, of course!—we don’t know what’s in store. They kiss into her room, and he shuts the door behind them, ending the scene.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, we see Julie in her room folding laundry and looking despondent; she eventually tells Felicity, and then a doctor at the hospital, what happened that night with Zach. This includes that their hooking up started out as consensual and switched in the middle. Though Julie’s unsure if what happened was rape as she didn’t “scream” or “hit him,” and “he wasn’t violent,” her doctor confirms that indeed it was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s so incredible about the story line is that there’s a lot of nuance and ambiguity in these relationships and interactions. Julie and Zach liked and even respected each other; they had a good thing going; they made out for half an hour before she said she didn’t want to have sex—but it was \u003cem>still\u003c/em> rape! Because that’s the thing—rape, and especially non-stranger rape (the most common kind)—is rarely black and white; and you don’t have to be an entirely bad guy to commit it. Admittedly, this is a somewhat difficult concept to follow, let alone get right on a television show, but the fact that \u003cem>Felicity\u003c/em> goes for it and nails it, and all the way back in 1998, no less, is nothing short of revolutionary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it’s not just the nuances of the relationship that \u003cem>Felicity \u003c/em>pegs; it’s the logistics too. Felicity and Noel (her RA and sometimes love interest) seek out a school counselor to find out what Julie’s options are, and the counselor very thoroughly spells out all the avenues she can take. Buoyed along by her friends’ encouragement, Julie eventually meets with the school counselor herself, and it’s implied that it’s in this meeting that Julie reports Zach, as the next time we see him he’s being pulled out of class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While it takes Zach a while to grasp the magnitude of everything—he goes from clueless to defensive, at first—he eventually does, and the last conversation he and Julie have is surprisingly endearing. Julie, anxious that Zach doesn’t know what he’s in for, goes to tell him she’s fighting this, only to find him packing to leave school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As they talk, he isn’t defensive; he admits that what happened was in fact rape even though he “didn’t attack [her]; [he] didn’t rip [her] clothes off,” mirroring back Julie's fears from earlier in the episode. He hands her a note he was going to leave her. “It says all the obvious stuff—how sorry I am, how horrible that night must have been for you, how I wish things would have happened \u003cem>very\u003c/em> differently.” He tells her it wasn’t her fault; he actually apologizes this time, using the words “I’m sorry” and everything. Julie says she’s sorry too; because she is. Not because she did anything wrong, but because she wishes it had gone down differently too.\u003cem> \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, Julie didn’t have to wait for a school court to decide her fate like Emma Sulkowicz and so many others, and she never had to testify.

Point being, the stakes are high and fans of the show take the competition very seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So today's announcement of a second season of All Stars is major, to say the least. The premiere won't arrive until 2016, but that doesn't mean we can't make a wish list of the queens we hope to watch compete for the crown a second time. Take note, RuPaul!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cstrong>Willam\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/07/giphy-1.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17198\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/07/giphy-1.gif\" alt=\"willam belli drag race\" width=\"400\" height=\"275\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>#BringBackWillam lit up Twitter yesterday, after Willam mentioned that he hadn't been approached to be a part of the show. And there's a good reason for the rally cry hashtag. Willam is arguably the most successful drag queen to come out of the show. She has a string of \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0kqobQRcUo\" target=\"_blank\">parody singles\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://store.americanapparel.net/meet-the-queens_cat1750904\" target=\"_blank\">campaign\u003c/a> with American Apparel, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFNH3sS3htc\" target=\"_blank\">a hilarious web series\u003c/a>. Bringing her back is a no-brainer, especially considering her sudden disqualification (the rumor is she broke the rules by receiving conjugal visits from her man).

The former \u003cem>American Idol\u003c/em> contestant wasn't considered strong competition in the beginning of her season because she had a \"hog body\" and was less polished than some of the pageant girls, but she proved everyone wrong with a second place finish. Since \u003cem>Drag Race\u003c/em>, she has become the highest charting drag queen on the Billboard charts (even besting mama Ru!). Her single \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmV62-f-xnU\" target=\"_blank\">\"I Adore U\"\u003c/a> is easily better than most pop songs you will hear on the radio.

Point being, the stakes are high and fans of the show take the competition very seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So today's announcement of a second season of All Stars is major, to say the least. The premiere won't arrive until 2016, but that doesn't mean we can't make a wish list of the queens we hope to watch compete for the crown a second time.

And there's a good reason for the rally cry hashtag. Willam is arguably the most successful drag queen to come out of the show. She has a string of \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0kqobQRcUo\" target=\"_blank\">parody singles\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://store.americanapparel.net/meet-the-queens_cat1750904\" target=\"_blank\">campaign\u003c/a> with American Apparel, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFNH3sS3htc\" target=\"_blank\">a hilarious web series\u003c/a>. Bringing her back is a no-brainer, especially considering her sudden disqualification (the rumor is she broke the rules by receiving conjugal visits from her man).

The former \u003cem>American Idol\u003c/em> contestant wasn't considered strong competition in the beginning of her season because she had a \"hog body\" and was less polished than some of the pageant girls, but she proved everyone wrong with a second place finish. Since \u003cem>Drag Race\u003c/em>, she has become the highest charting drag queen on the Billboard charts (even besting mama Ru!). Her single \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmV62-f-xnU\" target=\"_blank\">\"I Adore U\"\u003c/a> is easily better than most pop songs you will hear on the radio.

C’mon, everybody out there loves some form of Batman, be it Tim Burton’s or Christopher Nolan’s version, or even just the campy TV show from ancient times (**POW**). Batman is as American as apple pie and racial tension; it’s practically a hallowed institution here. That aside, a show based on Pre-Batman Gotham sounds like a good time, especially one about an actual cop — Commissioner Gordon before he was commissioner — trying to solve the murder of little Bruce Wayne’s parents. The fact that the producers are telling a story in a world that’s already established and is overflowing with dark imagery, it’s going to be hard to mess this one up, but you never know…\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>Runner Up: \u003ci>The Flash\u003c/i>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp> I remember the ’90s version of this being great and thanks to renewed interest (probably due to a character on \u003ci>The Big Bang Theory\u003c/i> being a big fan), they’re giving the story another shot.
