Widow's Bay -- new series on Apple TV

Quite impressive how they managed to do the Halloween/Friday the 13th unstoppable-slow-moving-killer trope and have it work and be scary while also very subtly funny.

Kate O’Flynn’s (Patricia) physical acting is so great. She sort of stomps everywhere she goes, swaying her hair side to side.

Patricia is the GOAT and has great cardio.

I just watched the one where mayor accidentally took a mushroom drink.

His secretary putting him on a dog leash was hilarious. The episode wasn’t the best overall, but it was amusing to see him black out and come back over and over.

My love for Patricia grows every episode.

Also, the mayor’s kid (ethan? evan?) would have been mad about anything short of full disclosure, but I don’t know why he had to lie. “After giving birth, she had some complications and passed two years later” would have been a reasonable enough story to tell his whole life. Plus a bonus of being true, while shielding him from the scorpions-in-the-ears kind of stuff.

Patricia being in every scene after she has shot the supernatural serial killer, pointing the gun point blank at his head until the body is loaded into the furnace. And when the doors swing open POV from inside she is STILL THERE with gun raised. Only when she finally sees he has been cremated to ash does she fjnally lower the gun. She knows how this works. She is taking no chances.

Just finished the 8th and latest episode. I love that she pointed the shotgun at the slasher-killer until his ashes were fully ashes.

I half-expected to see the ashes tingle or shift at the end, indicating he’s still in there.

Can Rosemary be the new host of Finding Your Roots?

“Dead baby, dead baby, lesbian.”

Season 2 hook!

This show knows just how to frame a joke. Doesn’t sound funny until you see the episode.

So, they gonna kill the old lady in the next one? Hmm…

I’m excited for season finale tomorrow.

The show is very difficult to predict and I was thinking that Loftis’ son Evan was going to be the last living descendant. I can’t imagine they’ll go thru with the implied murder but maybe it’ll ramp up to a deeper eldritch mystery. Already confirmed for a season 2 renewal!

Anyone else got any predictions?
