Movies > TV for me.

I can acknowledge that TV is more progressive in representation, and that there is more time to cover storylines, but the bigger challenge is fitting a story into a movie with enough time so it feels satisfied, even if we have to wait years for the next one.

I'm the opposite, I love TV. I think because I'm more attracted to characters then plot, and I have trouble getting attached to characters in a short time span and I end up rarely loving movies.

The way movies win out though is being able to be planned and have their plot have a beginning, middle, and end (provided the writer is decent.) TV's system of never knowing if they can continue on drives me nuts because either a series will end on a cliffhanger or they will continue the show past the point of having any plots left, I wish we could have more series with a solid plan from beginning to end.

I think quality shows are on par with movies, it's just hat TV turns out so much crap percentually.

Oh gosh, this one's a hard choice for me. I do watch a shit-tonne more movies than I do TV, especially these days, but I do enjoy the TV programs I watch.

I think in the end though I probably do prefer movies just that little bit over TV.

I'm the other way around. I barely watch movies, but I tend to watch TV shows more.

It depends for me. I'm liking shorter British and Canadian series over the American format, which seems to involve filler episodes with a lot of "Tahiti."

"Tahiti" has become my code phrase for a reminder clumsily inserted into filler episodes that there's a big fucking conflict that the writers have no intention of advancing, making the characters look like idiots for not taking steps to resolve it.

Unless it's a romantic conflict, then it's a "Jordan" after the painfully protracted "Jordan/Woody" ship. I think I hate Jordans more than Tahitis because character interactions are even more obnoxiously unrealistic.

"Tahiti"

That's one of Whedon's more annoying tropes. Buffy was full of it.
