Golicked!

YOURS TRULY gets the full Jill Golick pilot treatment as she breaks down Episode One of Across The River to Motor City.

As with the true events surrounding the JFK assassination, the viewer is left with the feeling that they aren’t getting all the details. We don’t have an ideal point of view on the scenes and sequences. We have a sense we’re being left out of something, information is being held back. The story telling invokes a paranoia in you as you watch it, which is pretty clever considering that the death of JFK probably gave birth to mass paranoia. It also propels us forward, keeps us questioning and wanting more story.

There’s lots more to come. Two episodes have aired and we are far from understanding what happened to Katie.

By the way, Ms Golick also got an honest to goodness, full bore comment on her blog from...Mad Men's Matthew Weiner.

Can I get a heywriterboy squee?

MmmmaadMennnSqquuUUUEEEE!

Ah. Much better.
