This is so true! It was basically niche!prestige!TV in a time when there wasn't really a public understanding of that as a thing, yet. I mean yeah, prestige TV was in its infancy at that time; it existed. But I don't think it had gained the kind of mass and momentum to really be recognized for what it was, yet. And a show like Carnivale was kind of baffling in the context of the time, because it had the hallmarks of a prestige show, but...was really fucking weird, in a way that most of the proto-prestige shows (Sopranos, The West Wing, Six Feet Under, The Wire) just weren't. A year later Battlestar Galactica came out, and IMO it did a whole lot to explode the concept of prestige TV and suddenly everything could be smart, complex, mature, and nuanced if you wanted to it to be. But in 2003, yeah, I definitely think Carnivale was ahead of its time. I mean, I didn't watch it until 2007 or 2008 and I've always thought of it as coming out some time around 2006; I didn't realize it came out in 2003 until looking it up because of this secret.
