The Reel Cut

The Limited Series

Scott Whitley, Nick Foster & Mark Brunskill Season 1 Episode 21

Shorter than a TV series, longer than a movie. The middle bowl of porridge. Just right. The limited series should in fact be named the 'unlimited series' because the potential in story telling within 8-10 episodes of a self contained story is vast, and has been proven on many occasions to be the perfect blend of character development and plot. Like an RBMK reactor in a Ukraine power plant, there has been an explosion of great choices within the last decade or so, we break down our favourites and wax lyrical like a beautifully delivered philosophical sonnet from Rustin Cohle.
