The Hollywood Outsider – Film and Television Podcast | Reviews An award-winning film and television podcast for the fan in all of us
On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, networks have been on a tear killing TV characters as of late. Shows like 9-1-1, NCIS, The Last of Us, The White Lotus, Bosch: Legacy, Yellowjackets, and the list goes on. But were these deaths necessary? Creatives claim it is a necessary storytelling device, but is it really? If extreme shock is the only way to rev up your fanbase, does it mean that perhaps the show needs better writers? OR do these deaths truly feel tangible and effective? We dive into this topic with mild spoilers for the shows mentioned, so proceed lightly. Also, we determine what TV series would be better if they killed off a lead TV character.
Also on this week’s podcast: Donald Trump proclaims tariffs for Hollywood films shot abroad, reviews of Clown in a Cornfield, Fight or Flight, Summer of 69, plus we dive into RUST starring Alec Baldwin, directed by Joel Souza this is the film that resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
