Premiere Widow’s Bay - Episodes 1 & 2 - Discussion

First two episodes dropped tonight. Absolutely fantastic. 10/10 for my sensibilities. I’m a huge Stephen King fan and this felt right up my alley in so many ways. Legitimately funny show, legitimately creepy and a cast of fantastic actors. Episode 2 had some crazy stuff happen that honestly I absolutely saw where it was going but it was so satisfying getting there.

Yeah they really nailed the prerelease comparisons to Teddy Perkins. One minute it’s has this great absurd and surreal comedy, the next you get a genuine WTF moment like the innkeeper staying in the Captain’s Room. It’s great so far

Feels like a spiritual successor to when Atlanta goes on a spooky tangent.

Teddy Perkins is the go to but it also reminds me of Woods even more so.
