Welcome to a new podcast, in which a newbie (that's me) finally takes a deep dive through the entirety of Chris Carter's creepy universe....guided by fans he is lucky enough to have in his circle, who will kindly walk him through the journey.
In this first go round, Daniel Baldwin (not the actor, but a terrific guy nonetheless) sits down with me to discuss the excellent pilot episode for this classic series. How providential that everything seems to be locked into place - as far as the series' ethos, central characters and sophisticated tone - right from the start. That seems pretty rare for genre TV, particularly 30 years ago.
What similar genre series was there around this time, about a sexy guy and a sexy girl who investigated creepy happenings week after week? Was it Friday the 13th: The Series? Was their pilot as good as this one?
In any case, sit back and enjoy our spirited discussion.
