I've probably spent more time playing this game than I should have, but if it's fun is that such a bad thing? The play loop is addictive and you're constantly trying to be the best studio by putting on the best programming. I highly recommend playing it in the base form but also adding some mods from the community later on. Both have their fun points, whether it be a spoof or a full poster and actual movie or show, this game can keep you playing because you are trying to build your audience either by specializing in a genre for one particular audience or a variety of programming to get some happy viewers. There are also so many fun nods and homages in there, you just have to see for yourself.
