My father was a self proclaimed Exorcist.
I am hesitant to watch this show. As a child, I saw the 'EXORCIST' and mostly stay away from demonic possession films. Also, my dad proclaimed he was an Exorcist in Egypt. My dad would sometimes point out someone was possessed while I took him out running errands. I just took it as he was crazy. People are just crazy. I do like the idea that possession sometimes seems like mental illness. And, mental Illness sometimes seems like possession. We shall see! So far a good plot and storyline!
Surprising Good
First of all, let me say that I'm a little biased. I am the stunt double for Darren Pettie, who plays psychopath Orson. I don't usually watch too many of the shows I work on, but this piece was so intriguing from the start, blending just enough of the occult/supernatural with contemporary crime. Very well acted and written, and I'll be looking forward to the next episode...even though I won't be in it😉.
It caught my interest, but...
Interesting premiere. It has definitely caught my interest, that's for sure. But I'm a little disappointed that there wasn't anything supernatural involved, at least not yet. It was just conjecture. This show would end up being a whole lot more enjoyable if something seemingly supernatural, is. But I have a feeling that won't be the case. I hope that I'm wrong.
Well done. Creepy and engaging.
I didn't expect much. Network shows have gone seriously downhill, but this was great. Perfect balance of a police procedural with creepy supernatural elements. Great show so far.
A good Pilot
This is a fresh start for the new series of Robert and Michelle King. The couple who brought us The good wife and the good fight. We got Katja Herbers (Westworld) who nailed her performance at lead actress. Mike Colter (Luke Cage, Defenders, The Good wife) is good also there and we got Leland Townsend who's good at being a villain.
Did you know
- TriviaThe book Dr. Kristen Bouchard (Katja Herbers) is reading to her daughters is "The Princess Bride".
- GoofsAcosta uses "phenomenon" (rather than "phenomena") as the plural form of the word, when describing his line of work (and makes the same mistake again later in the episode). Given that he must presumably describe his work often, it is especially strange for him to get the word wrong.
Interestingly, the second-episode recap corrects the error (using different audio when excerpting the above scene), but the third-episode recap goes back to the original version.
