Missing While Indigenous
A tense family dynamic and a high-risk pregnancy. Why is Trent speaking to Gabi? Why does everyone go along with Gabi’s forcible compulsions? Gabi is pathologically incapable of not annoying. A doctor breaks confidentiality. A bastard child was conceived by morons. Sir rants. Doesn’t Trent have a union rep? Kelli Williams is obsessed with being at the bus station by 9pm. There is bad acting and a smug jackass. Someone fears Virginia. There are nutters and ranting. Oh FFS. Sir threatened to kill an imprisoned Gabi. There is a dumbass twist and a stolen baby. A baddie does a speech. This was 💩.
Best Line:
“Never been arrested for domestic violence just bar fights.”

The Huntress 🍆🍠🍑
Not every dream has a perfect ending. This is the 2nd limited series retelling of the infamous Candy Montgomery case. Elizabeth Olsen, Jesse Plemons, Lily Rabe of ‘American Horror Story: Coven/1984/Apocalypse/Red Tide/Roanoke’, Elizabeth Marvel and Krysten Ritter star. In 1980 Betty will be violently murdered by Candy. What led up to this? In the not terribly convincing 70s, Candy plans an affair with Betty’s husband Allan. In Wylie, Texas small town folk go to church and have pathetic stupidity and delusions of grandeur. Candy (Olsen) and Betty (Rabe) were friends all the way to the grave. This is possibly the 3rd filming of this lamentable tragedy. Shockingly Candy would avoid awful consequences. This case was lost to posterity. Allan (Plemons) is an inarticulate lardass. Betty won’t let her daughter dress as Sandy from ‘Grease’ for Halloween. This was pure hokum.

Amnesia Folles
Bernard babbles as things finally began to collapse in ruins. One does not care about the nonsense going on. This long ago fell into decline. There is self-interested power in this pretty horrible ep. Stubbs lingers. Horrific stories unfold. Season 1 was good but all that followed it sucked. One has complete bafflement at this. The prohibition park is basically westworld moved to the jazz age. There is a tower. Caleb is in peril.
Generation Loss
There are multiple timelines. Charlotte has enslaved humanity in the future also Caleb’s daughter Frankie is all grown up. This is creatively revolting. The new Dolores isn’t eminently respectable. Wtf is with the flies and the restrictive measures? Teddy babbles. Caleb is dead. So? The tower is off NY. So?

Free For All
There is oblivious privilege and yelling in thus dubbed Brazilian show. There are lies, manipulations and exposition. There is no moral authority and no interest. There is negativity and resentment. DNF

Love Has Won: The Cult Of Mother God (2023) 1x01
The life and death of cult loon Amy Carlson. I saw that nutter on ‘Dr Phil’. Crazed cultists babble. Amy’s mom speaks. Amy isn’t the only housewife to abandon her family in the burbs to run off and become a cult leader in the Colorado mountains. Amy is seen in a McDonalds training video. Lunatics speak. Amy did mushrooms 🍄 for over 36 hours during a bender. Amy had a drinking problem. Amy’s website sold tat. This was not good. A shirtless guy obviously fancies himself as the sax player in ‘Lost Boys’. FFS!
