Evil's fourth season is coming in May, and will be its last. I'm pretty excited, it's an excellent and loving wild show, and I'm keen to see how -- or, to be honest, if -- they wrap things up. Still hanging in there in hope that the kids form a vigilante mob and go and murder Leland. Honestly, the show's love of random non-explanations to things is one of its great strengths, though I can see why it would drive people mental if they're watching it as a mystery show. I love that it'll just sometimes casually drop an explanation to a subplot four episodes after the episode aired, and other times it'll just shrug and say stuff like "Oh hey, yeah, I guess that random dude's wife didn't turn into a pillar of salt, and he's just a serial killer and I guess he's still out there somewhere? Oh well, not our problem."

Oh hell yeah, Evil is such a fun show. The daughters are great and Michael Emerson looks like he's having a good time as Leland.

Honestly the scene in Evil where Leland is pretending to be friends with the little girl in the online game and it flips the trope upside down when her sister asks "Who's that?" "Oh it's Leland pretending to be a friend, I'm loving with him" is in my top 10 laughs over the last few years in TV. Was not expecting it.

Yeah, I gather they just let those girls improv their overtalking chatter and it really works to make them feel more like real people than actors. Normally I, at best, tolerate a child character but I do enjoy the family dynamics in that show quite a bit. Well, not the husband, not much too him

It truly makes me sad to think of the amount of money wasted on branding shenanigans. Fandango Media (jointly owned by NBCU (75%) and Warner Bros Discovery (25%)) bought Vudu in 2020 and shuttered FandangoNOW. Today, they announced, Vudu will be renamed Fandango at Home. So, you killed one brand name and then turned around and named it something else. They say libraries are staying the same as always, but they are also talking about this being a “one stop shop for Movie Tickets and OnDemand”. To me, that feels like they are going to lessen the emphasis on ownership and put more on trying to get that sweet money for temporary viewing of first run content.

For the last 25 years our name has been synonymous with prestige tv and movies. But I personally didn't make it like that so let's change it.

Season 2 of Tokyo Vice is way better than season 1 so far. I loved the moment at the end of the latest episode where Adelstein belatedly realizes what he is asking Sato and makes his peace with it. That's some good acting.

Maybe I shouldn't judge because my father's not a serial killer, but this seems like a loving weird way to process that trauma.

There's something bad about the notion of "reckoning with the impact it had on families" and "making public entertainment of it too." And the usual what good is it to make a celebrity of a killer and spectacle of the family's pain. I didn't know about this guy before at all and I can't imagine anyone else's life improving with the knowledge either.

EL BROMANCE posted:I’m trying to work out which trauma you mean, I assumed Dennis Quaid but I’m not seeing any connection to a serial killer on his wiki? I'm talking about Melissa Moore. i.e. the woman who's producing a TV series that uses her own life as a jumping off point for a series that imagines that perhaps her dad may have actually done even more murders and that a fictional version of herself is the only one who can prove he did them. Like, I get the idea of creating a fantasy life where you, sort of, I dunno, have this cathartic experience of combating your serial killer father (even after you've helped put him in prison IRL), but it's really strange to broadcast that internal life as part of an ongoing, fictional, TV series. I guess maybe it's therapeutic?

I just cancelled paramount after accidentally paying for showtime instead of getting a free month. Only time they ever just let me cancel too, usually they try to trick you into sticking around one way or the other. In hindsight maybe that's why it was so easy to cancel this time.
