Premiering Tuesday, January 26th, from executive producers Paul Giamatti and Peter Tolan, and creator Peter Mattei, is a new backwoods Shakespearean power struggle series called Outsiders - about an isolated mountain clan clashing with local law enforcement in the town nestled below their homestead in the hills of Appalachia. A series that's part of, I assume, WGN America's renewed investment in outdoorsy stories set in glum forests (which started with Salem and will continue with Underground in March).
And it's good. It's not fully formed yet, and the Farrell family - the headlining crazed denizens of the wooded mountains who storm into town, intimidate the locals, and blatantly steal supplies whenever they feel like it - are a straight-up unlikable bunch, but there are notes of promise here. They're deep-rooted bullies who only care about their own, and they're only going to get more hostile and repugnant if David Morse's Big Foster Farrell gets his way. Foster, an angry, unwise elder ready to have the leadership torch passed to him by his supremely superstitious matriarch mother, Lady Ray (Phyllis Somerville).
