quarterlife Obits for Ya
So, news all over about NBC pulling quarterlife after one episode and bumping it to Bravo.
You can read a number of takes on the demise here, here, here and here.
It seems to me that only Mashable is cutting to the chase:
“While online videocasters that aspire to mainstream stardom may take the news as a bit of a hit to their field, it seems there is a solid argument to be made that NBC simply picked a show that wasn’t very good.”
I’ve been saying for a while that quarterlife is a bad test-subject largely because it isn’t great. You can argue whether or not it stinks (many think so) but it certainly isn’t great. Do we really need to say more?
