TV DAY - Friday, September 26
1:30 - 3:00 PM
Celebrating The Outlaws: TV's Bad Guys (FTV15)
Weeds, Dexter, Bones, Carnivale, Deadwood, House, The
Wire... all feature highly complex characters that are
mean, morally-dubious or just plain twisted! When did the
bad guys become the good guys? While their moral compass once
hit true north, recent TV protagonists increasingly dwell
on the dark side. We bring together key creators from top
series to discuss how they develop and craft these darker,
complex characters and how to ride the edge between sympathy
and deviance to keep audiences captive. Sponsored
by the Independent Production Fund.
