One critic characterized "Breaking Bad's" dark humor as "Thelma and Louise as seen by Dostoyevsky" and that was one of the perkier, more optimistic descriptions. A seven-part AMC series, "Breaking Bad" TV show tells the story of Walt White, high school chemistry teacher turned methamphetamine cooker and dealer. Of course, as Glenn Frye crooned, "The lure of easy money has a very strong appeal," but "Breaking Bad" does not allow for even a split-second of sunshine through the abysmal darkness. In this corner of the universe, crime never-ever pays. Walt, expertly portrayed by Bryan Cranston of "Malcolm in the Middle" fame, is neck-deep in problems, complications, and flat-out ugliness from the minute he lights the Bunsen burner. Although the writers have woven-in some amazingly ironic lines, known in the trade as "comic relief," the characters deliberately deliver their quips in such a super-slow, slack-jawed drawl they seem more tragic than funny. Of course, "Breaking Bad" TV series make some pretense toward allegory of the American middle class struggling through the throes of deep recession, and it scores some hard hits. Most of all, though, "Breaking Bad" shows that even when fine writers, directors, and actors can find humor and pathos in displaced white-collar workers' undignified struggle for dignity, it still looks awfully damned dreary and ugly.

After 30 years of nearly oblivion, TNT is reviving the grandfather of all plutocracy soap-dramas, Dallas. A little bit rebranded but still not losing its luster, this grand soap-opera appears to us in the new, contemporary glossiness, featuring all good old actors, like 80-year-old Larry Hagman who still plays incorrigible old buzzard J.R. Ewing, Patrick Duffy is still Bobby Ewing while Linda Gray is Sue Ellen Ewing. After the very first episode of renewed in 2012 Dallas you will find out, that the original characters are perfectly combined with the next generation of oil tycoons (as well as the new generations of actors playing them). Meet Jesse Metcalfe, who is Christopher, Bobby Ewing's adopted son who tries to bring the family business into the new modern route of green energy industry. Jordana Brewster, who may be familiar to you as Mia Toretto from Fast Five, now is Elena Ramos, John Ross's new girlfriend and ex-fiancee of Christopher. Who is John Ross? He is John Ross Ewing III (played by Josh Henderson) who tries to be a good son of his father by strict following all the family business traditions of oil drilling. This is the very short glance on Dallas 2012 turbulences, and you have to discover the rest 99.99% all by yourself.

One of two intense medical dramas NBC introduced in the fall of 2009, "Mercy" had all the advantages its one-named rival "Trauma" did not. First, it had talent behind the scenes. Liz Heldens from "Friday Night Lights" created the show and led the writers, proving once again that the best way to dramatize the real world is to show it realistically"”ugliness and all. Second, it had attitude and guts to stay true to its revolutionary premise, the well-informed notion "that nurses remain [not only] more generous caregivers, but that they are more intuitively apt, smarter, more committed and as technically able as their [physician] superiors, with none of the accompanying arrogance." In a winner-take-all ER smackdown, you always would go all-in with the Mercy Hospital nurses. The main character, nurse Veronica Flanagan Callahan, has just returned from a tour in Iraq, where she clearly learned more in each day than the pompous, presumptuous doctors learned in all five years of medical school. Of course, Veronica gets neither the respect nor the reward she deserves, but "Mercy" dangles the possibility of true love as just recompense for Veronica's skill and compassion. Taylor Schilling plays Veronica with exactly the right balance of toughness and vulnerability, skillfully juxtaposing her consummate skill as a nurse with her intrepid ingenuousness in matters of the heart. If only "Mercy" had survived into a second season, all the tangled threads in the story might have come to their proper denouement. If only.
