When stand-up comedian Ana Fabrega first read the script for “Let Me Die a Nun,” the comedy was so dark she didn’t think it was a comedy at all. “She thought it was a drama just from reading the script, because it was such a dry comedy,” said writer and director Sarah Salovaara. “She was very confused as to why I was interested in her, but we worked it out.”

Salovaara wanted a comedian in the lead role, even though she’s the straight woman. “Everyone around her is very heightened, and she has to be the one that grounds the experience in her emotional turmoil,” said Salovaara. “I wanted someone who could play drama, but in a comedic context, which comedians can do really well.” Fabrega stars alongside trans model and “it” girl Hari Nef,...

Chanelle Aponte Pearson’s Dazzling Ode to Black Lesbian Love Is the Next Great Queer Project of 2017
If the success of “Moonlight” and “Atlanta” are any indication, 2017 is set to become the year of the visionary black auteur (about time already). Joining their ranks soon enough is Chanelle Aponte Pearson, director of ‘195 Lewis,” which recently won a Special Mention from Outfest for “highlighting the contemporary life of queer black woman with flair, vibrancy and substance.”
The short series explores the joys and pitfalls of open relationships in a vibrant community of black queer women living in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn. Flowing with original music by members of the community and glowing with luscious colors and warm light, Pearson breathes life into the eclectic mix of characters with equal parts humor and lust. The script, by first-time screenwriters Rae Leone Allen and Yaani Supreme, radiates a confident originality that heralds a fresh new perspective.

One network enters, two networks exit. The era of Peak TV has added several new outlets to the Emmy race in key scripted categories – and the new entrants this year include Epix, the premium cable service that recently launched an ambitious original series strategy.
Meanwhile, this may be the final year that two other networks compete in those categories, as they appear to be exiting the premium scripted game: Wgn America, which is adjusting its programming strategy away from prestige drama like “Underground,” and A&E, which is returning to its core focus on unscripted fare as “Bates Motel” ends its run.
For nascent cable and streaming networks, an Emmy nomination (or even better, an Emmy win) is a clear sign, particularly to the industry, that you’ve arrived. That prestige is often used as a marketing tool, or as justification in boosting subscriber fees or additional distribution. It also...

Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but it’s not easy being the sibling of a monarch either.
On Netflix’s “The Crown,” Jared Harris and Vanessa Kirby play father and daughter royals, King George VI and Princess Margaret, both of whom had their fates changed by divorce. Today, their stories have been overshadowed by Queen Elizabeth II, who has reigned for more than 60 years. “The Crown” has dredged up their stories for a new generation.

Last Week’S Podcast: Vice’s Shane Smith on Trying to Avoid the ‘Crack Cocaine’ of Donald Trump — IndieWire’s Turn It On Podcast
There aren’t many actors as busy as Michael Kenneth Williams. Probably still best known as Omar on HBO’s classic “The Wire,” these days he’s all over the place: Playing Leonard Pine, opposite James Purefoy, in SundanceTV’s “Hap and Leonard”; as Ken Jones in the ABC limited series “When We Rise,” about the gay rights movement; or as Freddy Knight in HBO’s “The Night Of,” playing a Rikers inmate who befriends Naz (Riz Ahmed).
All of those roles are Emmy-eligible. But possibly the most personal work Williams has done recently wasn’t an acting gig at all. On Viceland’s “Black Market,” the actor served as a real-world journalist – entering the dangerous world of illicit trade, such as gambling underworld in New York,...

Ed Harris’ ‘Westworld’ Turn Was A Perfect Late-Career Move For One of Our Best Actors — Career Watch
Welcome to Career Watch, a vocational checkup of top actors and directors, and those who hope to get there. In this edition we take on Ed Harris, who’s doing what he’s always done: owning character roles in film, theater and television.
Bottom Line: Harris has an iconic masculine American gravitas. The camera loves him and you can count on Harris to deliver a character’s emotional spine with subtle and sturdy grace. That’s why this hard-working actor never falls out of demand. And he seemingly can do anything, whether stalwart hero (John Glenn in “The Right Stuff” or the Mission Control voice in “Apollo 13” or “Gravity”) or contemptible villain (see “The Firm,” “Enemy at the Gates,” “Swing Shift,” or “The Rock”).
Director Peter Weir (“The Truman Show,” “The Way Back”) once told me that shooting Harris is “spiritual, a man that has a past and regrets,...

How far do apples fall from their proverbial trees?
It was all about parenthood on Chicago Med Season 2 Episode 20. Halstead Sr. did everything he could to push his sons away, but apparently there were good times at some point because both boys showed up for their dad despite everything.
I may not be Will Halstead's biggest fan, but killing his beloved mentor one week and his father the next would have been a bridge too far. I still didn't see enough to completely redeem Will and his frequently douchey behavior, but it did maybe explain a few things about the man.
What really struck me about this story was that both Connor and WIll have a bad case of "the grass is greener."
Connor certainly had things easier from an objective perspective, was given all the outward advantages. But his reaction to Will's neighborhood made it clear he'd give up...

If we learned one thing from Chicago Med Season 2 Episode 19, it was to never cross Maggie. Oh, and the basic of locating a lost bullet without high tech help.
Okay, so the first lesson should have been a given. We should all be so lucky as to have a Maggie in our lives. Too bad she wasn't around for Nat during that passive aggressive territory marking by Nina. She might as well have peed on Will for all the subtlety she managed.
Which is interesting mostly because I'm still not getting the feeling that Nat is sitting around pining for Dr. Halstead. There's been maybe a moment or too or wondering what might have been, but nothing more.
At least on her side. If Nina's going to be paranoid, she needs to be asserting herself to her boyfriend, not his crush. Blaming another woman, especially not one who's actively seducing your beau,...

The book was raw & dirty, and did you read what that girl did with that guy on page 167? Racking up a stack of Oscar nominations, Peyton Place became one of the big hits of its year, launched the careers of several young actors, and proved that Hollywood could pasteurize most any so-called un-filmable book. Lana Turner is the nominal star but the leading actress is Diane Varsi, in her film debut.

George Sidney’s 1963 musical satire takes on all comers, including Elvis Presley, television and the rise of the American Teenager but the film is most memorable for the super-charged performance of the redheaded bump-and-grinder who personified that All-American teen, Ann-Margret. On a less combustible note, Dick Van Dyke’s affable everyman persona is always welcome and a hilariously nerve-wracked Paul Lynde confronts the Generation Gap with his own special brand of fear and loathing.

David’s Quick Take for the tl;dr Media Consumer:
Roman Polanski made a massively successful transition to Hollywood filmmaking in this iconic horror-thriller classic of the psychologically disorienting variety. All the elements at play come together with the kind of perfect synchronization that signals the beginning of a new era in cinema: Mia Farrow’s star-making performance as a naive young wife living through a worst nightmare scenario, a flawless gradual atmospheric transition from seeming everyday normalcy into deeply disturbing paranoia, unsettling pivots between charming oddball humor and creeping, continually intensifying dread, and a perfectly timed interjection of quotidian satanism as practiced by one’s next door neighbors, when the taboos were still intact and capable of delivering maximum shock value. Rosemary’s Baby opened up new territory for mass audiences to experience intense levels of anxiety that didn’t depend on directors resorting to jump scenes, gratuitous violence,...

I didn't make much of it at first. After all, Gretchen (Aya Cash), the intemperate PR rep of Fxx's biting sophomore comedy, "You're the Worst," vowed never to relinquish her independence when she moved in with her narcissistic boyfriend, Jimmy (Chris Geere), at the end of the first season. In this context, her decision to sneak out of the house in the middle of the night at the conclusion of "All About That Paper" was not terribly noteworthy—another attempt, like the season premiere's drunken, drug-addled bender, to avoid becoming, as Jimmy puts it, one of those "disgusting normals." And then it happened again. (Spoilers ahead if you're not caught up.)

Mean Girls goes 8-bit, Michael Egan dismisses second sexual assault suit, Utah and Indian prepare to appeal marriage equality rulings
As the rumored release of his second album nears, Frank Ocean has reportedly fired his whole team, dropping managers and publicists, all of whom have worked with the Odd Future collective for years. I always thought he could use a little distance from all the homophobic crap that comes from that group.
There was quite a bit of confusion on Twitter yesterday among gay activists as the Human Rights Campaign endorsed Maine Senator Susan Collins for reelection. Collins has been coy for years about her support for marriage equality, despite her support of Enda and repealing Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. But in the evening she released a statement to a Maine newspaper that made her the fourth Republican in Congress to endorse marriage equality.

Here at Twitterwatch we spook easily. We like to spend our Halloween behind the computer where it's safe, not out with things that go bump in the night. Fortunately, other people like scary stuff, and we can experience a virtual Halloween without trying to pretend we can pull off the Sexy Fireman costume.
I thought it might be funny if Scott Evans went as the Human Torch or Captain America for Halloween, as some sort of ironic commentary on the fact that his brother tends to play dress up even when it's not Halloween. But that might be creepy in hindsight, and homemade costumes are always in fashion. That's a nice use of glitter, but it doesn't leave much mystery.
