I had the pleasure to go see showrunner Nichelle Spellman and 2 leading actors Octavia Spencer & Aaron Paul on a panel talking about the show, which gave me so much more respect for it. The show is based loosely on a novel, but embellished for drama, centering "Poppy" and her relentless quest to figure out the true murder of a crime 20 years past via her podcast. On the panel they discussed the influence of present day true crime podcasts on popular opinion, and on the development of the show. Intriguing to watch with great acting (especially Lizzy Caplan as a twin!).
This was a good season. Kept the mystery aspect alive and threw in nice a twist. I enjoy shows where I have to piece together the motive. It wasn’t exactly easy to figure out who was a killer because we saw one kill her aunt and lie easy. Love the cast so much. Hate the love triangle aspect though. Let this woman be happily married and her having platonic friends.
Excellent first season. Loved . I really and truly cared about Aaron Paul’s character. Octavia Spencer and Lizzie Caplan’s performances were excellent as well.
