Curt McGirt Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) City on a Hill's finale was a hundred and ten percent The Wire, down to the closing wrap-up with a full song playing over all the characters' stories concluding for the season. We also got Kevin Bacon as Fit Finlay breaking an Irishman's thumb! EDIT: I forgot to mention they got not only John Doman as an attorney but Peter Gerety AS A JUDGE in the same courtroom in this episode too.

EVA Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Yes, I am definitely asking on Fowler’s behalf. No one else’s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 See. He watched it. I mean the wife and I happened to see it and it’s weird finale twist episode that felt kind of like Epitaph One from Dollhouse. But I figured you were asking about Fowler.

Brian Fowler Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Complicated thoughts: this is likely to be the last major work Whedon does for a long time if not ever, and deservedly so. He does not deserve to be let back in to the club. The rest of the cast, writers room, and crew are not guilty of his sins, and do not deserve to have their hard work ignored because of him. Despite the revulsion I feel towards his conduct, I will not suddenly pretend I don't think he's the greatest writer/creator I'm the history of television. The show was good, the last episode was not the twist I expected, and it definitely did have an Epitaph One feel. I sincerely hope the post-Whedon version of the show is as strong or better than this was. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) I enjoyed the show, but I will say that Whedon’s triumphant return to the medium of TV felt a lot like Aaron Sorkin coming back to do THE NEWSROOM: Both were guys who made themselves TV legends in the 90’s/early 00’s, left to do movies for a while, then returned to the age of Prestige TV (that they paved the way for) with the full force of HBO behind them. What would they choose to do now that they were free of the shackles of network TV and had the clout to call their own shots? As it turns out, both decided to pretty much do the exact same thing, just with more cursing and nudity. Which is not necessarily a bad thing (although THE NEWSROOM was pretty bad), but it can be a bit deflating to realize that, oh, I have in fact heard everything this person has to say already. It’s fascinating to see what happens when creatives who built their careers on being acutely aware of genre tropes and deconstructing them (to great effect) hang around long enough to develop their own personal tropes that they are, apparently, COMPLETELY unaware of. Like, it should come as a surprise to no one that THE NEVERS features a nebbish guy and a brainy girl who are in a cutesy, will-they-won’t-they romance subplot. Among other Vintage Whedonisms. (And, boy, he will just never fail to write a story that is bigger than his budget can handle.) All that said, you know...I feel like there just aren’t that many people making TV that actually know how to make TV anymore, so THE NEVERS kinda felt like 6 hours of comfort food—one of the few remaining masters of the form serving up something familiar that still manages to light up the old pleasure centers. I will miss his FANCY LADY X-MEN. Edited May 21, 2021 by EVA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 The Newsroom was fucking terrible. I can't think of another show that got me so hyped by the amazing promo for it, which was Jeff Daniels talking all kinds of shit about politics, only for the actual show to just absolutely suck. But hey, I'll at least give the show credit for calling out perfectly what the future of the GOP would look like all because Mike Lee won in Utah.

Coletti Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I heard recently that the reboot of iCarly has the incomparable Laci Mosley as a main star, and she's been getting shit from grown ass Nickelodeon viewers who also happen to be racists. That's fucking mind-boggling to me, as somebody whose children watched iCarly, and as a huge fan of the Scam Goddess herself, one of the most charismatic and talented people I followed for a while.

The reactions to them was something else, rightly so. When those broke, I thought of you knowing how you love Joss Whedon so good on you slamming Whedon's behaviour.
