I can't believe an article as important as 'television director' has statements like "Aside rattling off rapid-fire commands, it is also the live director's job to be cool under pressure and maintain order among the staff in the control room, on the set, and elsewhere. The director's commands must be artistic, accurate, and calm. There is usually no room for error". Holy crap, are you kidding me? The tone! It hurts. Not to mention it reads like an 8th grader's essay. I'll try to {{sofixit}} when I have the time but I wanted to leave a note here nevertheless. DubiousIrony ^yell 09:54, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I started updating this article, but realise now it needs a total rewrite... which I hope to get sorted shortly. PhilKerswell (talk) 00:36, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
