On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, our main topic is the surge of dark TV nostalgia invading our homes these days: Wednesday, Riverdale, now Casper, and on and on. So much of what seemed like fun escapism of our youth is now being morphed into darker, edgier, grittier television that loses much of what we loved about them in the first place.
Also this week: Greta Gerwig scores big with Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew, reviews of The Sheep Detectives and Mortal Kombat II, and more!
