The Exorcist - Fox Script Review

Share on Reddit



Thanks to Darkness for the heads up.

It’s a constant for quite some time now: cult horror movies turned into TV series never work. Have you seen Damien, based on The Omen? Even Lifetime didn’t want it and left it to A&E. Horrendous. Have you seen NBC’s version of Rosemary’s Baby? One big pile of shit. Bates Motel is the exception. This show is pretty decent. Or at least was at the beginning. Hannibal? Very good series, but dismal ratings. In fact, even 100% original shows dealing with horror can’t find an audience: 666 Park Avenue, Scream Queens… It’s just not broad enough and not everything can be American Horror Story. Networks learned it the hard way. In the light of these simple facts, why did FOX order The Exorcist reboot to pilot? It’s beyond me. I just don’t get it. We know they are still looking for shows with preexisting name recognition (even if Minority Report flopped hard), but why betting on this one? They are heading towards another huge disappointment if they pick it up to series, which they would be crazy to.
