Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 12, 2019 Members Share Posted May 12, 2019 Sounds interesting; however, I am starting to get this odd feeling that FOX is about to commit the same sins they did in the mid 90s--isolating us Black viewers in an attempt to grab White, female viewers. With Rel, Star, The Passage (all shows with Black leads) being cancelled this past year, I am starting to raise my eyebrows as if history is about to repeat itself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted August 24, 2020 Members Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) It does look promising. Glad to see another try at the ole primetime soap, although I'm worried about the 'satirical' part. I'm cautiously optimistic. And it features Kim Cattrall and Steve Harris, so I'd check it out just for them.

Members SFK Posted August 25, 2020 Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 I'm looking forward to this. But whenever I see a promo, I wonder just how many episodes they've got in the can. It would be a shame if they're dangling this carrot and it ends up being "a short-run series event." Called Filthy Rich at that. There was the satirical soap of the same name by Linda Bloodworth with Delta and Dixie pre-Designing Women. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaytimeFan Posted August 25, 2020 Author Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 It was first promo'd during Spring 2019 upfronts. The plan was that it would debut in midseason 2020 but then the pandemic happened and FOX decided to save it for the fall because they had an entire season in the can. From what I've heard they have an entire season ready to go. I'd follow Kim Cattrall into war, so I'm looking forward to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted August 25, 2020 Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 Same re: Kim Cattrall. But it's been so long since I've followed a FOX show...Empire I think was the last one...so by entire season I guess 13 to 16 episodes. But good to know they have a season. I do hope they don't do what TNT just did with the second season of THE ALIENIST and do two episodes a week to burn through things though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted August 25, 2020 Author Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 I believe it's 10 episodes. As it was intended to be a midseason show its order was shorter and it's sat on the shelf this year. But in a Fall 2020 devoid of original content, FOX is in good shape. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted August 25, 2020 Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) I'll be watching this one, for sure, but with very judgmental eyes because, well, Louisiana. Nice to see Liz Reyes huge hair on that TV screen. The trailer has the two things that I've just had to accept as part of the modern definition of "primetime soap," a tone that manages to be quirky comical and pretty dark at the same time and, of course, the central, season-long mystery that kinda automatically cuts a show's shelf life in half.

Members Taoboi Posted August 25, 2020 Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 Yaaay!!! 10 is a good size. Not too short. Not too long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted August 25, 2020 Members Share Posted August 25, 2020 Yes, September 21st! I think it was supposed to be a midseason replacement last year and pushed back to Fall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
