“If I had a nickel for every TV show coming out this year about 19th century Presidential assassinations*, I’d have two nickels…”

“…Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.” DEATH BY LIGHTNING (Garfield) is coming out on Netflix, and it actually looks kind of interesting. MANHUNT (Lincoln assassination conspiracy series) is coming out on Apple TV+, and it frankly looks like shit.

[pause]

Pretty much says it all, really.

*I wouldn’t read too much into that. There were ‘only’ two Presidential assassinations in the 19th century, period. Also, if we’re to be honest if ghoulish about it: there is plenty in both assassinations that would lend itself to drama. I just think whoever was in charge of keeping MANHUNT on the rails should be reassigned to iPhone metal burnishing duty, or whatever it is that people at Apple do when they’re too well-placed to simply be fired.
