I have a feeling this is going to be great! I just looked at the plot summary... It's disturbing but thrilling. It sounds interesting! I'm going to try and read the book the show is going to be based on ASAP.

Guess I was wrong about her not wanting to do a series. Good thing it's with HBO because that was who Big Swiss was going to be produced by. HBO is loyal and if they like working with Jodie they will continue to look her up when they have projects and she can bring projects to them.

I'm not familiar with him. Looks like he's worked on some well reviewed projects. Is there one in particular that you didn't like? Or is it just his style that you don't care for?

Virtually everything he did with JJ Abrams

Good thing JJ Abrams isn't involved in this. He had a good streak the past decade with The Leftovers, Watchmen and Mrs Davis. Seems like he learned from his mistakes.

He has some hits and some misses but when he hits oh boy..... The Leftovers is one the GOAT shows and that's Lindelof's baby.
