    In its times, “Brian’s Song” was the most iconic made-for-TV movie. ABC strategically placed its premier, utilizing the concept of “flow” to cross-over their normal, stereotypical male Monday Night Football audience, towards the broad audience they were striving for their prime-time football games.

Raymond Williams’ concept of flow is demonstrated through the way ABC strategically premiered the movie “Brian’s Song”.…

    When a problem arises, people tend to look at others to assign blame when (more often than not) their finger should be pointing right back in the mirror.
