Nervous about HBO’s adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s A Game of Thrones? Maybe you should be – the channel’s programming chief loves it so much that he seems embarrassed that it’s a genre story.

TV Industry Turns Blind Eye To Non-3D Viewers

When it comes to 3D television, I don’t see it. Literally. The technology that’s supposed to convince me that a 3D image exists when I look at a 2D screen doesn’t work for me.
