She looks good. Bet she could do a good Kim Mulkey in a film bio.

Excited to get sucked in for 8 episodes only to have the mystery solved in an anticlimactic manner over the course of 5 minutes.


I recnetly rewatched S1 and I don't think the ending was near as bad as I felt it was in real time. We get answers to the tuttles and the schools and everything that had been going on. Sure it may have been "quick", but I mean how else should it have been? The whole series had led up to this conclusion, then it concludes. I don't think, on the rewatch anyway, that it felt forced or too quick. Then after the final action we get the denouement final act of marty and rust tying up their loose ends.

Most actors get better with a little age. Jodie Foster seems to be doing the opposite.

Jeez, she's 60. I didn't think she looked that bad honestly, and almost kinda good for someone who is that old.

And yes, the cheek piercings of the black chick immediately took me out of it and made it difficult to take seriously. That just looks so stupid that I laugh every time they showed her.

The trailer looked pretty good, but I suspect I'd have trouble taking it seriously with someone looking that stupid on my screen the whole time. May give it a shot though.

Foster’s partner’s acting seemed pretty bad in the trailer.


Her delivery seemed really try hard bad. Is that the beta they could do to play off of Foster?

I wasn't talking about her looks. I just meant she has gone downhill as an actress. She was a great actress with the potential to be an all-time great...but sadly, she kinda fizzled out. I know she intentionally took a step back from the limelight to focus on family (good on her), but her acting suffered.

Love the setting. I’m with everyone else in saying it looks like Foster’s side kick is horribly miscast. Looks like they are bringing the creepy cult type shite back.

To me it just makes it a little unrealistic and distracting

I’ve never seen a cop with face piercings

But Jodie Foster is excellent

Panic Room is a favorite movie of mine. She is so good in it. But damn that was 21 years ago.

Why the piercings in the face, why?

That's what you took from this?


They were distracting. That is a unusual look. I agree, why?

Female lead. Awesome. This is a new concept in Hollywood.

Don't love the main characters.



Exactly.

Better leads and I'm getting aroused at this. But I hate Jodie Foster (for no real tangible reason) and the other woman doesn't really fit backwoods Alaska setting for me.

Still, I'll watch every episode
