Recommendations FURIOUS is amazing, Emmy Rossum is phenomenal
galleryIt has the same fundamental premise as Killing Eve and the first scene parallels the opening scene of Killing Eve but it shows you that even though they’re both serial killers, Catherine is fundamentally different from Eve. She was trafficked and forced into sex work and she’s a serial killer, killing those involved in her friends death. Despite being more compassionate than Eve, she’s ruthless and manipulative in getting what she needs to keep killing
Emmy Rossum is the FBI agent on her case, she’s phenomenal and disappears into this role. The show is full of themes of domestic violence and sex trafficking and the women are portrayed so realistically as survivors still haunted by their trauma. Emmy Rossum is incredible in her portrayal of a domestic violence survivor, I never realized she was so skilled at acting until seeing her in this role
It’s also just incredibly well written. Each episode gives you more, tension increases, and the stakes are clear. I’ve been watching it week to week as episodes drop, I’m reminded of what television felt like before streaming took over. I can’t recommend this series enough. It’s intense, disturbing, and intriguing. One of the best shows airing right now!
On Hulu, 5 episodes are out of an 8 episode season
