I'll watch when it comes to streaming, I tend to enjoy most of Ryan Murphy's output, especially when it's campy.
And the Winner Is... (The Oscars of 1963)
Bette is on track to win a record-breaking third Best Actress Oscar and Joan and Hedda launch a clandestine campaign against her.
Hagsploitation
Hungry for another hit, Warner pressures Aldrich to bring the original team back together for a follow-up hag horror pic.
I couldn't find anything about him being there. Or not being there.I thought it was weird that Victor Buono didn't appear in the last episode since he wasn't he nominated for his role in Baby Jane too? Unless he didn't show up in real life idk
Hollywood in those days were pretty depressing (well, still is really).This show is really depressing lol
I can't think of two better actors to play them. But I really hate the ads. The font and the colors are all wrong. I see billboards all around LA for the show - why the fuck are they using a Flinstones-ass font? The ads seem like a real mismatch. That rant aside, I can't wait to see the show. I'm going to a hype viewing of Whatever Happened to Baby Jane at the LA Theater tomorrow. Can't wait!
Anyone who's caught up, would you recommend watching Whatever Happened to Baby Jane first or after watching the series?
Straight Jacket and Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte should be on your watch list afterwards, as well.
I loved the recreated scenes from Straight Jacket in this last episode.
When the show first started out, I was thrilled with Sarandon's role, but man, Lang has absolutely killed in the back stretch here.
Abandoned!
With production of "Hush...Hush Sweet Charlotte" underway, the feud is intensified when Joan learns of a new producer on the project. Also: Bette reveals her vulnerabilities to Bob.
The 100-year-old actress, who is played by Catherine Zeta-Jones in the show, responded to The Hollywood Reporters attempts to get her to comment on the series, the larger feud between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, and the 1963 Oscars ceremony at the heart of the series with an email that can only be described as gorgeously dismissive:
I have received your email with its two questions, De Havilland replied. I would like to reply first to the second of these, which inquires of me the accuracy of a current television series entitled Feud, which concerns Bette Davis and Joan Crawford and their supposed animosity toward each other. Having not seen the show, I cannot make a valid comment about it. However, in principle, I am opposed to any representation of personages who are no longer alive to judge the accuracy of any incident depicted as involving themselves.
De Havilland added, As to the 1963 Oscar ceremony, which took place over half a century ago, I regret to say that I have no memory of it whatsoever and therefore cannot vouch for its accuracy.
You Mean All This Time We Could Have Been Friends?
In the season finale, Joan accepts a leading role on a new film despite her deteriorating health. Later: Faced with a new rival, Bette reflects on her misplaced feud with Joan.
This was such a great and fun show. I'm going to miss it.
Any word on what season 2 will be about?
Whoa. Awesome.Princess Diana & Charles and it begins with divorce papers.
Whoa. Awesome.
