[QUOTE="Rove, post: 197458, member: 100"] In a lot of ways I've found the introduction of technology has killed the enjoyment of character driven TV Series. Why speak with someone when a text will do. Creating a series today without incorporating smartphones into the picture would be a challenge however they are here to stay, so, a clever writer will not avoid the issue but somehow allow it to enhance a series without feeling technology has taken over. I still enjoy watching the expressions on people when they engage with each other. It's why the guys behind Stranger Things were clever in setting the series prior to the birth of mobile phones and the internet. This is why - in part - I'd advocate to tell a new story of [I]Dallas, [/I]perhaps set in the era of the American Civil War and involving the Southworth family. This way we have an immediate connection to the series. Just an idea. [/QUOTE]
