As the industry grapples with immense fracture, loss and uncertainty, Uzo Aduba had nothing but words of hope and promise when she took the stage to receive The Hollywood Reporter’s Trailblazer Award on Feb. 6 at SCADTVfest.

“We are told that our differences divide us, creating a separation based on idealistic standards,” Aduba said to a packed house of students and local fans inside the 600-plus seat SCADshow Theater in Atlanta. “But I’m here to tell you our differences are not weaknesses but strengths.

Don’t let anyone tell you differently. Anything is possible, and the journey is never over. There is no limit or expiration date for dreams.”

The Rookie: Feds may have only lasted a single season, but the Niecy Nash-led spinoff continues to feed us with frequent appearances on The Rookie by its former cast members. Felix Solis, who originated his Feds character of FBI field-division chief Matthew Garza on the mothership, has popped up a few times since Feds‘ cancelation in 2023. And just last week, we saw Kevin Zegers and Devika Bhise return as FBI Special Agent Brendon Acres and his forensics-expert girlfriend Antoinette Benneteau to help Nolan (Nathan Fillion) and company with a manhunt. Now, we have exclusive confirmation that actress Britt Robertson will be badging up again as Acres’ FBI training agent, Laura Stenson.

The Rookie creator and showrunner Alexi Hawley gives a candid response whether Niecy Nash will return to the series. The Emmy-winning Nash led the short-lived spinoff The Rookie: Feds, in the role of Simone Clark. The story followed Simone as the oldest rookie in the FBI Academy, offering a few tweaks to the premise of the original series. But because of complications related to the writers and actors strike, and less-than-expected ratings, The Rookie: Feds was cancelled after one season.

In an interview with Screen Rant's Rachel Foertsch to discuss the premiere of The Rookie season 7, Hawley was asked about the fact that The Rookie has been bringing in supporting characters from the spinoff and whether that could include Nash. The creator and showrunner acknowledges that Nash was busy with other projects. However, he remains hopeful that she will be able to return as Simone. Read the quote below:...

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are currently involved in many “lasts.” As they finish their shows at their 67th Street studio, they always discuss the end of an era. This is because they are moving to a brand-new studio in 2025, although it is unclear when the move will occur. This week, they had another “end-of-an-era” moment.

Here is what Kelly and Mark did this week that they won’t do again.

Gayle King recently appeared on Sherri Sheherd’s talk show. This came after Sherri was part of a group that surprised Gayle for her 70th birthday party, which Oprah Winfrey hosted. King and Sherri spoke about the party and the moment, but then Gayle spoke up about what she considered a backstage snub by Sherri on that specific show.

Here is what Gayle had to say and why she felt Sherri snubbed her.

Gayle King Says Sherri Shepherd’s Show Snubbed Her

Gayle King was on Sherri Shepherd’s daytime talk show this last week, and the two women talked about Gayle’s surprise 70th birthday party. Oprah Winfrey planned the party, and many of Gayle’s friends showed up. This included Sherri, who mentioned she was missing a tooth during the event.

2024 had a lot of great sci-fi and fantasy TV shows, but sadly, a few that let viewers down!

Over the past 12 months, fans got to enjoy a lot of genre TV, from returning hits like The Rings of Power and House of the Dragon to great new shows like Fallout. There were also a few duds here and there, many of which came and went without much buzz. Not all of these shows were bad, some many were disappointing. Some were parts of franchies that came up short and others were new efforts that landed with a thud.

Here at the end of the year, we're remembering the 10 biggest sci-fi/fantasy TV shows that let people down. Not every show can be a winner. Just ask fans of these series:

The Umbrella Academy. (L to R) Aidan Gallagher as Number Five, Robert Sheehan as Klaus Hargreeves, Tom Hopper as Luther Hargreeves,...

Gayle King felt Sherri Shepherd needed to make things right after observing a significant snub backstage at her show.

Earlier this week, she visited Sherri’s talk show, days after her friend Oprah Winfrey threw her a surprise birthday bash that nearly gave Gayle a “heart attack.”

That became a talking point during Sherri’s interview with Gayle. However, Sherri also revealed some backstage footage of Gayle during an episode.

“Outside of our green room, we have pictures of various guests on our wall, and Gayle took me to task for not putting her picture on the wall,” Sherri said, introducing the footage to her viewers.

In the clip, Gayle is walking backstage and looking at the photos of the various celebrity guests on the wall.

“Oprah, Sherri, Kim, John, oh Joy Behar, Ok, still don’t see my picture. Where’s the Gayle King picture on the wall? I...

By now, General Hospital fans are used to the fact that Nicholas Alexander Chavez’s character, Spencer Cassadine, may not be returning for quite some time. The actor has been busy with his other projects. There’s Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story for Netflix, as well as FX’s Grotesquerie. For the latter show, where he plays the buff Father Charlie, he had a unique way of preparing for the offbeat character.

Stranger Than Fiction

In a recent interview with the Associated Press, Chavez discussed the incredible year he’s had. After all, he appeared in two hit shows which were his life’s dream come true. But acting is more than a passion or a hobby for him. It’s his calling. “My life feels whole and complete between the words ‘action’ and ‘cut.’ I live for those moments. I think that is the purpose of my entire existence.

Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce is highly regarded as one of the greatest tight ends in the sport, but when he began dating Taylor Swift, it seemed that opportunities to do more than play football quickly came his way. One of the many new career ventures that Travis has taken on includes working in television.

Travis landed the hosting gig of reality TV game show Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity? and acted alongside Niecy Nash in FX's original series Grotesquerie.

And, it looks like Travis' ex-girlfriend is also getting into the reality TV realm. Before dating Taylor, the NFL star had a lengthy relationship with fitness influencer Kayla Nicole. The two broke up in 2022, way before he would start dating Taylor publicly. But, for unknown reasons, Swifties came after Kayla, prompting the media personality to defend herself, telling internet trolls to kick rocks. Now, she's on her...

Exclusive: Spenser Granese (Dope Thief) is the newest addition to the cast of Marty Supreme, director Josh Safdie’s new film for A24, starring Timothée Chalamet, sources tell Deadline.

Character details are under wraps, as with the film’s plot, though the project supposedly takes loose inspiration from the story of professional ping pong player Marty Reisman.

Despite strong reviews, AP Bio, was canceled two separate times during its four-season run, and the reason behind the sitcom's cancelations is a frustrating and difficult truth. Initially released in 2018, AP Bio follows Jack Griffin, a disgraced Harvard philosophy professor who must move back to his hometown and begin teaching AP Biology at his local high school. However, Griffin decides that rather than actually teaching his students biology, he will prepare them to take down his arch nemesis so that he can get the job he believes is rightfully his.

On the page, AP Bio had plenty going for it during its run. The series starred It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia star, Glenn Howerton, as Griffin, along with Lyric Lewis, Mary Sohn, Paula Pell, and Patton Oswalt. AP Bio's cast also included notable guest stars such as Nikki Glaser, Niecy Nash, and Angela Kinsey. On top of that, the series...

Keke Palmer recalls a Ryan Murphy yelling at her while filming for Scream Queens. Scream Queens is a Murphy-created TV series that ran for two seasons back in 2015 and 2016. Taking a partial anthology format, the show followed a series of murders by a serial killer who takes on their victims in different locations. Scream Queens featured a star-studded leading cast including Emma Roberts, Lea Michele, Abigail Breslin, Keke Palmer, Billie Lourd, Jamie Lee Curtis, Glen Powell, Niecy Nash, Kirstie Alley, and Taylor Lautner.

In an excerpt from her new memoir Master of Me: The Secret to Controlling Your Narrative (as per Variety), Palmer reveals an unfortunate interaction she had with Murphy on the set of Scream Queens. The actor explained that she was given a filming schedule and arranged another business opportunity for a day she was not scheduled to film. When she was called to set anyway, she...

Keke Palmer recently spoke to the Los Angeles Times about her upcoming memoir “Master of Me: The Secret to Controlling Your Narrative,” which includes one story that alleges Ryan Murphy “ripped” into the actor during their time working on “Scream Queens” together. Palmer played Zayday Williams in the Fox horror comedy, which ran for two seasons in 2015 and 2016.

As reported by the Times, Palmer describes in the book “how she’d been given her shooting schedule and arranged to fulfill another business obligation on a day off. But when that day rolled around, production told her that she was actually needed on set. She decided to keep her prior obligation, which resulted in an angry phone call with Murphy in which he ‘ripped’ into her and told her she was unprofessional.”

“It was kind of like I was in the dean’s office,” Palmer told the publication while asked about the incident.

Sarah Paulson is opening up about working alongside Kim Kardashian!

If you didn’t know, Sarah, 49, and Kim, 44, will be starring in the new Ryan Murphy Hulu legal drama All’s Fair, which is currently in production.

While attending the Wicked L.A. premiere over the weekend, Sarah revealed what it’s like acting with Kim.

Keep reading to find out more…“It’s wonderful,” Sarah told Variety. “She’s incredibly present. She’s fun, she’s game, she’s alive to the moment. She’s great.”

All’s Fair is being billed as “a high-end, glossy and sexy adult procedural.” The cast also includes Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash, Teyana Taylor, and Ed O’Neill.

Sarah also revealed that her dressing room was filled with Kim‘s Skims products on the first day of filming.

“Lots of Skims! It was robes, slippers, blankets,” Sarah shared. “I’m really into everything Skims.

Sarah Paulson is currently acting alongside Kim Kardashian in “All’s Fair,” the new Hulu legal drama series from executive producer Ryan Murphy.

“It’s wonderful. She’s incredibly present,” Paulson told Variety‘s Marc Malkin at the Los Angeles premiere of “Wicked” on Saturday. “She’s fun, she’s game, she’s alive to the moment, she’s great.”

Along with Kardashian and Paulson, the “All’s Fair” cast includes Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, Matthew Noszka and Ed O’Neill. Exact plot and character details are being kept under wraps, but it was previously reported that the show will follow Kardashian as an L.A. divorce lawyer in an all-female law firm led by Close’s character.

As we move closer to the end of 2024, now is the perfect time to look back at some of the worst shows of the year. It has been a fruitful year for TV watchers, particularly those who prefer to stream their series. We’ve seen an interesting mix of new shows and the anticipated return of old favorites. Still, this doesn’t mean they have all been winners.

Before we share which shows have been the most disappointing, let’s give recognition to some of the many series we’ve enjoyed the most. At the top of my list, I have Apple TV+’s Presumed Innocent, Prime Video’s Fallout, and Hulu’s The Bear season 3. I know Netflix’s Baby Reindeer also received a lot of attention, as well as the returning Prime Video favorite, The Boys with season 4. Which shows have made it to your favorites list so far?...

Niecy Nash-Betts has no appetite for horror. So it’s hard to fathom her decision to star as an alcoholic detective in the FX horror series Grotesquerie, which opens with a murdered family hogtied and stuffed like a roasted pig. But presented with an irresistible script by Ryan Murphy — with whom she’s collaborated four times since 1999 — and taking on an executive producer role as well, how could she say no?

The show, which concluded last week, follows Nash-Betts’ heavy-drinking detective Lois Tryon, who recruits a nun (Micaela Diamond) to...

Update, with additional reactions: As Hollywood and New York wake up this morning to confirmation that Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States, the mood among many celebrities is one of deep disappointment, even despair.

[This story contains major spoilers from the season finale of Grotesquerie.]

The ending, which beckons a second season of the FX drama, stumped everyone, including Vance, who’s not letting on any theories he has about who serial killer “Grotesquerie” is or how his own character might evolve in potential future seasons.

“I don’t know where Messy Marshall is going to be,” he tells The Hollywood Reporter after the finale. “Hopefully it won’t be as messy, but knowing the Ryan Murphy world, it’ll be messy, prayerfully, into the second season and onward and upward into, hopefully, more seasons.”

Despite the sexist underpinnings of the men’s support group that is revealed in the season finale, the concept of discussing how to reconcile one’s differences is an important one ahead of Tuesday’s presidential election, says Vance, who spoke to THR earlier this year about the importance of voting while working on AMC’s 61st Street, saying at the time,...

Grotesquerie officially wrapped up its freshman season on FX this past Wednesday, October 30. The show ended on an interesting note, which has fans wondering when they should expect Season 2 to come down the pipe. But has FX renewed the series for another season? Here’s what we know so far.

Grotesquerie, Season 2 – Cancellation Or Renewal?

On all accounts, Grotesquerie first season was a complete success. The Ryan Murphy show stirred up a buzz with captivating dialogue, scenes, and storylines. It didn’t hurt the new “It” boy in television, actor Nicholas Chavez, was among the cast, playing Father Charlie.

Plus, it didn’t hurt that Niecy-Nash Betts was the lead character, which helped propel the show to mainstream audiences. Not to mention Travis Kelce’s recurring guest appearances.

All arrows are pointing toward a Grotesquerie renewal; however, nothing has been confirmed by FX as of yet.

As haughty, naughty Nurse Redd on FX’s Grotesquerie, Lesley Manville turned in one of the most memorable performances of the TV season. But she’ll just have to take our word on that.

“I haven’t actually watched it yet,” Manville admits to TVLine. “But my son is watching, and he’s absolutely loving it.” The actress, who is performing in a London production of Oedipus while simultaneously filming a new movie, has “no room for it at the moment,” she explains. “And I want to give it space.”

I thought the story was more focused than Murphy’s American Horror Story seasons. I also loved the cast, yet enjoyed how it was mostly about Lois (Niecy Nash-Betts). However, by episode 4, I began to lose interest.

The story began to get tangled up in its many plots and characters. Then, we reached episode 7, and everything changed.

Ryan Murphy, Jon Robin Baitz, and Joe Baken’s Grotesquerie started in a rather unassuming fashion, but it was clear that a palpable darkness was brewing under the surface of its characters and setting, like a gaping chasm to Hell that could swallow the world at any moment. There’s been an emphasis on order ruling over chaos – particularly in the form of jigsaw puzzles – right from Grotesquerie’s first episode. Lois Tryon (Niecy Nash-Betts) and the rest of her family would innocently solve puzzles all season while she simultaneously tries to put together the pieces of a grander serial killer mystery where Lois can’t see the forest for the trees. To Grotesquerie’s credit, it’s a series that’s routinely kept its audience guessing regarding how all these pieces possibly fit together and what the finished picture is supposed to look like. Grotesquerie certainly hasn’t been...

Despite strong performances from a stellar cast and potent symbolism offering compelling ideas, Grotesquerie doesnt evolve much past its plodding narrative and scattershot story. The new FX series was created by Ryan Murphy, best known for co-creating American Horror Story for the same network. His latest horror mystery offers a similar feel to the anthology show, as seasoned Detective Lois Tryon (Niecy Nash-Betts) investigates a series of grisly murders in her small town. She soon teams up with a local nun, Sister Megan (Micaela Diamond), after learning the killings have key religious connotations.

Grotesquerie ended its first season on Wednesday with another gruesome crime befitting the FX drama’s title. But if you thought that Episode 10 would bring this turducken of a mystery to any sort of conclusion, you’re dreaming. Or maybe Lois is dreaming. One thing’s for sure: our brains could all use a rest after this.

The finale began with Lois returning home to find Marshall and Redd waiting for her, armed with dinner, drinks and an offer she absolutely could refuse — a throuple! It was a hard no from Lois, who simply wants to be at peace with Marshall after all these years.

Spoiler Alert! This post contains details from the finale of FX’s Grotesquerie.

It looks like Lois may never be making it to Florida after all.

The finale of FX’s Grotesquerie felt, in some ways, like the 10 episodes came full circle, with Niecy Nash-Betts putting aside her plan to start over in Tarpon Springs in favor of donning her detective hat again to try to solve the same gruesome crimes she’d been investigating in her liminal state — except this time, they’re happening in real life.

After Lois is called to the scene of a family brutally murdered and delicately placed around their kitchen table, she starts to become suspicious. But, when she finds herself back at the church altar, staring at a bloody recreation of the Last Supper, this time with her doctor, at the center, she knows she can’t flee to Tarpon Springs until she’s gotten to the bottom of this.

Meanwhile, the doctor who has been conducting interviews with Lois about her liminal state tries to convince her that she is the one doing the killing this time around. After all, she’s been losing track of time. And who else would even know about the nature of the killings from her comatose imagination besides the two of them?

For the record, Nash-Betts wants answers to all these questions and more, too.

She tells Deadline that “all things being perfect, we would have a Season 2 to unpack it. If not, that means me sitting at a dinner with Ryan [Murphy] for hours telling me where he planned on this story going.”

In the interview below, Nash-Betts unpacks the final episode with Deadline, speculates on Season 2, and reflects on Grotesquerie‘s social commentary, explaining why Lois is “one and the same” with Vice President Kamala Harris.

Deadline: The finale really casts doubt on Lois’ reality again. What do you make of it? Is she actually awake and alive?

Niecy Nash-betts: Yes, I believe everything that happened up until Episode 7 was in Lois’ coma. On the other side of that, of her being awake from the coma, someone, a copycat killer, has started to act out her dreams.

Deadline: So you don’t think Lois is the killer?

Nash-betts: No, I didn’t say that! I didn’t say who I think the killer is.

Deadline: Do you have a theory?

Nash-betts: You know, I think that in the Ryan Murphy universe, you always expect the unexpected.

Deadline: Very cryptic. What was your reaction to the final episodes when you read them for the first time?

Nash-betts: Oh, I loved it, because, as an artist, all the cast members got to play this duality. My daughter, played by Raven Goodwin, was portrayed to be one way — her mother wasn’t proud of her and she was wasting her life away when really she’s this high-functioning doctor with double degrees. The same was kind of true for every character. Sister Megan, played by Micaela Diamond, was a nun. And in real life, she’s the chief of police. So we all got to live in this world where, as an actor, the dream is to be able to play multiple sides of a character. So this was absolutely delicious for us.

Deadline: How was it to switch up the dynamics between all of these characters halfway through the season? They all have completely different relationships than what was first presented.

Nash-betts: Let me tell you, we loved it. What we love the most about it is giving Travis Kelce a hard time with that mullet. Everybody thought [Eddie] was so suave and so cool, but it was like ‘Uh uh. Not in real life.’

Deadline: Now that you can fully speak about his character, what was it like working with him in that sort of dual-character capacity?

Nash-betts: Oh, it’s great being able to lean into the duality of it all. I definitely am a strong supporter of Travis and any new actor. You want them to win. You’re rooting for them. So, just being able to even watch him look at himself looking so different… I posted a little BTS of him and his cowboy boots and his mullet. I was like, ‘Boy, you look like you need to be riding the tractor.’

Deadline: How did you navigate figuring out the type of person Lois is after coming out of this coma?

Nash-betts: Lots of conversations with Ryan Murphy to understand her mental state, where she is now. What does all that mean? Is she still drinking? Or is she in her recovery? So many things had to be unpacked. What is the root cause of her feeling like she’s going crazy and checking herself into the mental hospital? All of those things, we just had to have a lot of conversations about them to make sure we tapped into the right cruising altitude for Lois and her awake life.

Deadline: I found Lois and Marshall’s relationship to be so interesting. It is so contentious after she wakes up. How did you work with Courtney [B. Vance] to figure all of that out?

Nash-betts: It’s interesting, because not just Courtney, but Lesley Manville, who played Nurse Redd as well. We have very different relationships in our waking life. You think Marshall is on life support and in a coma, only to find out it’s Lois who’s in the coma — and how contentious his relationship is with her, and how he really views her. Courtney is such a good guy, the times where he used to have to say mean things to me, I mean, I just will start laughing, because I’m like, ‘Who are you? You’re not even this person.’ We get along great. We’ve worked together in a couple of projects before, but we never had to be mean to each other. So at the end of us having to be mean, we were always like, ‘You okay? You good?’ Because it just didn’t even feel right.

Deadline: So, in the finale, Marshall suggests to Lois that they and Redd all move in together.

Nash-betts: Did you see that?!

Deadline: What did you make of that scene?

Nash-betts: I was like, ‘What is going on?’ But, you never know. Some people probably are living that life. I just know, for Lois, in that moment, she was like, ‘All of you, get the hell out of here.’ With all sincerity, in her waking life that her husband said, ‘Can we all live here together?’ You know, it was crazy.

Deadline: I find it really intriguing that, even at the end, audience members are still left to question what is real and what isn’t.

Nash-betts: I’ve had so many people call me and say, ‘What is going on? I don’t understand what happened. Wait a minute. Is this real? Is that not real? Wait, what happened?’ So I’ve had a lot of people try to wrap their minds around it and theorize what they think. There are some groups that are all dialed in and have these big chat rooms dedicated to the show and their theories in the show. I feel like we definitely set our ending up for a season 2 for audiences to stay on the ride.

Deadline: So, you think there is room for more?

Nash-betts: Absolutely. You don’t even know who Grotesquerie is yet. That’s a huge unanswered question.

Deadline: Are there any unanswered questions that you want to address in a potential Season 2?

Nash-betts: The main thing that I think I’m looking forward to is who is Grotesquerie, because right now in therapy, the doctor says Grotesquerie is an amalgamation of all of the evils that have happened in the world in [her] mind, but then these crimes start to happen, literally. So wait a minute. So then, what does that mean? There still are a few questions I’m waiting to have answered, and all things being perfect, we would have a Season 2 to unpack it. If not, that means me sitting at a dinner with Ryan for hours telling me where he planned on this story going.

Deadline: So, you don’t think Lois is going to Florida?

Nash-betts: I do not. I do not think that, not after she stands flat footed after coming out of the mental hospital and says to Cranburn and says to Megan, ‘Meet me in my old office. I know who the killer is.’ I don’t think she’s going to ever make it to Tarpon Springs anytime soon.

Deadline: How was your experience as an executive producer, being able to give more creative input on the series?

Nash-betts: Ryan is a wonderful collaborative partner. So, we worked together on everything from thoughts about storyline to casting to maybe reshaping things after we shot something. And it’s like, ‘Wait a minute, this is pointing me in this direction,’ or ‘Maybe there’s a shift that we can make here.’ What are Lois’ levels of drunk? Is she plastered? Is she hungover? Where is she in her disease? So we were hand-in-hand and collaborated quite a bit. I love that I’m Ryan’s new muse.

Deadline: What were a few of your favorite hints or Easter eggs that Lois was in a coma, prior to the reveal?

Nash-betts: The two that stand out to me are when my daughter Merritt is filming her video for a TV show, and you see an orderly just walk through the frame. It takes Lois’ attention away. And then she’s like, ‘Wait, what?’ And then when she’s having a conversation at her desk with Sister Megan, and the beeping of the printer sounds like the beeping of the machine that she was hooked up to.

Deadline: This series is rife with commentary about the current state of the world. How does it feel to have the finale airing just a week before a very consequential presidential election?

Nash-betts: We do touch on a lot of subjects. We touch on climate change. We touch on women having agency over their own bodies. We touch on different types of evils that exist in the world. And in many ways, I feel like Lois and Kamala [Harris] are one and the same, both trying to save the world from evil.

Ryan Murphy’s Grotesquerie is on tonight, but this week’s episode is not like the others! Need more details? We’re here to help!

Grotesquerie has had one of the strangest release schedules we have seen in a while. On one hand, it’s easy to watch the FX series because it is part of Hulu. So if you’re not able to tune in to episodes when they air on FX (which is Wednesday nights), you can always wait to stream the episodes on Hulu the following day. Not to mention, FX dropped two episodes in one night (for the most part), and I don’t know about you, but staying up that late at night in the middle of the week is rough. That said, Hulu is my go-to when it comes to FX series.

However, keeping up with Grotesquerieˆs release schedule wasn’t always easy. The first season includes 10 episodes,...

Micaela Diamond doesn’t know if her mom is going to be able to watch tonight’s season finale of Grotesquerie (FX, 10/9c).

It’s not that she isn’t proud of her daughter. Just the opposite, actually. But if you think you struggle to watch every stomach-churning moment from Ryan Murphy’s latest FX horror story, try watching it all happen to your own child.

Although Grotesqueries cast is constantly evolving thanks to the shows many unexpected twists and turns, few viewers would have expected to see Broadway star Santino Fontana appear in episodes 8 and 9 of the series. Grotesqueries cast of characters is large and the shows seventh outing made it clear that the shows lineup was even bigger, and much more complicated than it initially appeared. The first six episodes of Grotesquerie focused on Niecy Nash-Betts troubled homicide detective, Lois Tryon, as she paired up with a quirky nun reporter, Sister Megan, to hunt down the titular religiously motivated serial killer.

Although Grotesquerie episodes 8 and 9 didnt feature any bombshell twists that could compare to episode 7s revelation, the double bill did explain a lot of lingering mysteries from the world of the series. For its first six episodes, Grotesquerie seemed like a riff on True Detective season 1 with some American Horror Story ingredients thrown in for good measure. Niece Nash-Betts alcoholic homicide detective paired up with a quirky nun reporter, Sister Megan, to solve a string of gruesome, elaborate killings committed by the eponymous serial killer. Then Grotesquerie episode 7's ending came along, and the outing changed everything.
