That was released seven years ago. Point I'm making is Noah Hawley was able to make a name for himself writing these complex series before the current crunch caused a situation where a first time showrunner wouldn't be allowed to.

You might see a parallel to the New Hollywood movement that started in the late sixties and ended in the late seventies.

Noah Hawley is creating an Alien show. I'm cautiously excited.

I didn't know that. I'll definitely watch it.
