I couldn't watch it. It wasn't bad enough that they were lost in space, but the fact that EVERY character had a distinct issue that caused drama or conflict was just too much.
I really like it too!
If it were up to me, i think I'd go with Severance and Barry in the main categories. Solid year all around though.
Crazy that shows like Barry (and most likely next year The Bear) are considered comedies when they only thing they have in common are the 30 minute format. Would be nice to have a short form drama category or something along those lines.
It really should be down to the studios during the nomination process. I think of Succession as a 60min comedy.
And it's so weird because S1 of Barry was way more comedic than S3. Same with Ted Lasso from S1 to S2.
Totally. Should be short form and long form
Just started Dark Winds and it seems promising so far!
AMC Networks has greenlighted Western noir thriller series Dark Winds, based on the popular Leaphorn & Chee book series by Tony Hillerman, for AMC and AMC+. Created and executive produced by Graham Roland (Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan), the series stars Zahn McClarnon (Westworld), who also is an executive producer, and Kiowa Gordon (Roswell, New Mexico) as Navajo Tribal Police Officers Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee, respectively.
Executive producing the AMC Studios series are Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin, who resides in Santa Fe, NM; Robert Redford, who has produced two screen adaptations of Hilleman’s Leaphorn & Chee books, The Dark Wind and Skinwalkers; Tina Elmo (The Mustang); and Vince Gerardis (GoT). Vince Calandra (Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan) is executive producer and showrunner. Chris Eyre, who directed Skinwalkers and also was the first Native American to win a DGA Award for Directorial Achievement in Children’s Programs, will direct the pilot and will also executive produce.
Worth sticking with it? Zahn McClarnon deserves a starring vehicle worthy of his talents.
By which I do NOT mean the upcoming "film" Ghostkiller, in which "Kyle Ghostkiller, heir to an ancient medicine bundle and falsely accused of murder, escapes the FBI and time jumps to 1862 where he must save 38 ancestors from hanging and stop a supernatural dark force from destroying the future," co-starring Tara Reid and Kevin Sorbo.
It has it's moments and I enjoyed more episodes than not, but the first half was better than the second half.
I was just googling it, had no idea it was based on a book series that has previously been adapted for Mystery! on PBS starring Wes Studi and Adam Beach in the early 2000s.
It's definitely still a comedy. A very dark one, but a comedy nonetheless.
Nice to see a long overdue nom for Rhea Seehorn too.
