The Mt. Rushmore of Prestige TV

According to the Bill of Rights, for a viewer to place a show on Mt. Rushmore, it must follow a strict interpretation of the legal doctrine (completely constructed from my own mind)

Ten Commandments of Prestige TV

In order to make a compelling argument that something deserves to be on the Mt. Rushmore of anything, there must be a set of ”legal principles“ to follow.

Legal Memo: Used to advocate for a certain position. “IRAC”

“I” Issue

Does ____ deserve to be on the Mt. Rushmore of Prestige TV?

“R” Rules

The aforementioned rules, though arbitrary, will serve as guideposts for longevity, cohesion, and ability to tell a story that finishes on their own terms. 

“A” Analysis

This Is the section of the memoranda that applies the rule to the law. Most of the advocacy occurs during thi analysis. However, a thorough analysis will always address the weaknesses in their argument.

“C” Conclusion

Straightforward: “Therefore, __ deserves to be on the Mt. Rushmore of __”

1. Must last 5 seasons

Some of the best shows never got to stretch their legs and tell the full story. Deadwood probably has some of the best written dialogue ever. But after three seasons, David Milch and HBO parted ways.  Three seasons is not enough to fully develop the relationship between Bullock and Swearengen.
