Period dramas
I really hate TV shows that have to base the scope of their story lines in a specific time period.
It results in some of the most monotonous programming I've ever seen.
If you live in the UK, you're not doubt familiar with the TV show Heartbeat.
It's set in the sixties, and has been since 1992. That means that it's been the sixties for the last fifteen years. But it feels like twenty, so by now they should all be listening to Frankie goes to Hollywood and wearing dinner jackets with the sleeves rolled up.
At least other period dramas have the decency to make a mini-series. They're the only TV show to drag out a dead donkey for fifteen pain staking years.
YOU ARE MAKING MY SUNDAY NIGHTS AT MY MUM'S HOUSE MISERABLE. STOP IT AND SACK YOUR ACTORS.
