Re: Sutter
I don't think he gets it at all. He thinks this is high-art. On his Twitter feed rantings, he often cries about the lack of award nominations and once compared Sons's quality to...gasp...Breaking Bad. His cut is on way too tight and is cutting off the air to his brain.
He tries to have it both ways. He wrote this long rant about how critics simply don't GET what kind of show he's making, which is a silly soap opera with motorcycles, otherwise they'd fairly review it. As if critics need to know what the creator intended for them to properly judge it. And then, like you said, he gets pissy when he loses awards and gets bad reviews.
He's just a giant clusterfuck of dumb and awfulness.
