Lately, HBO has been running the occasional limited series where the storyline wraps itself up in one season. True Detective has been doing it, with a new cast taking over each season, as well as Watchmen, which I recently reviewed, only lasting for one season (for now). And now we can add The Outsider to the list. Based on the recent Stephen King novel of the same name, The Outsider follows Detective Ralph Anderson’s quest to solve the murder of young Frankie Peterson, whose killer was apparently two places at once.

A lot of stuff is filmed in Philadelphia, but nothing ever seems to actually take place in Philadelphia, unless M. Night Shyamalan is filming it. Limitless was filmed here and then we had to pretend the film took place in New York. But then, Jason Segel came to Philly and seemed to fall in love with the city, which brings us to Dispatches From Elsewhere.

On this edition of The Backstage Pass, I decided to take a look at a man who impacted a generation, LeVar Burton. 

This is a tough one to write because I have to reference the graphic novel in some instances, as this entire season of this show is basically a sequel to the original graphic novel written by Alan Moore back in the 80s.
