Review of Profit

Profit (1996–1997)
9/10
Probably the best ever?
19 July 2006
This show has since I saw it for the first time (around 96' in Denmark) been a benchmark to thought provoking TV. Somehow "Profit" has lived with me in my own philosophical speculations on morals. It shows a heritage to great literary classics such as Machiavelli's "Il Principe", Thomas Mann's "Felix Krull" and probably many others daring to question our modern framework of thought. This show could inspire interesting discussions at dinner tables around 3 continents I lived in since 96'. Somehow all the cool people I have met in the age group exposed to the show "PROFIT" (I feel compelled to use capital letters), has had an impression of the show that gave occasion to a most inspiring discussion. In summary I will use this show as a beacon for achievement in television history. I know it will not be revived, but I have a dream, that someday a studio executive will have an epiphany and Adrian Pasdar etc. will be brought back to life on world wide television audience, because it will be worth it.
