Game of Thrones

question of the day: How could TV be more experimental?

In what other ways, beyond breaking the fourth wall, could TV do something different? Or is stuff like this simply too arty for mainstream TV audiences? Why isn’t there room, on a hundred-plus channels, for something more arty?
