Prestige TV is facing an existential crisis. Why HBO's 'Industry' is the exception

Welcome to Screen Gab, the newsletter for everyone who's just getting initiated into the cult of Pierpoint & Co. — or has been waiting for the bandwagon to grow all along. The fictional financial services behemoth serves as the backdrop for HBO's electric workplace drama 'Industry,' now in its third season, and longtime fan/Screen Gab editor uses this week's edition to explain what its slow burn reveals about the crisis in prestige TV. Also in Screen Gab No.

As it turns out, the very thing Hollywood executives seem least likely to give series these days is prestige TV's defining strength: time. To develop character. To refine style. To gain confidence. To grow audience. Prestige isn't earned overnight, and lucky for you latecomers, 'Industry' appears to have been granted the leeway of a pre-pandemic drama to accrue it. Or, at least, a rich, hot, young, ambitious, anxiety-ridden version of it. Welcome to the feeling.
