TV's Biggest Train Wreck?

Happy Valentine's Day. In honour of this day celebrating love, have a read of this article chronicling the disaster that is NBC's Smash.

Airing on Sky Atlantic over here, Smash tells the story of a group of frankly awful excuses for human beings trying to put on a Broadway show about Marilyn Monroe. The second series has started over in the States and I saw series one last year. It is the very height of trashy-ness and I watch it for all the wrong reasons (which are eloquently highlighted in the article) but both the show and the article raises questions about content makers and the behind the scenes issues of some of our biggest shows.
