An opinion of mine....

I’ve recently begun watching a tv series on Amazon Prime called The Killing. It has some pretty good reviews and, so far, the story line seems strong and engaging.
It’s my opinion, however, that directors of a lot of today’s films, videos, etc.such as this series who believe that employing a very dark screen or background somehow heighten the drama of whatever media you’re watching need to find a new and different line of work.
All they really accomplish is to piss off the person trying to watch it to the point where said person wishes they’d chosen something different to watch.
So sayeth the Oldfart..... 👴🏻

It'll be fine once the swelling goes down.
And it is everywhere, TV and movies.
Dark always dark.
There is no level of brightness that can be adjusted to make up for it.
I guess they are trying to force us into buying the new TVs with 50 shades of black.
And the audibles are so bad my closed caption on occasion can't translate.
Head phones on full blast?
The music people on these shows need to be slapped.
