Anyone know anything about David Duchovny's new show: Malice?

I found Stranger Things becoming constantly worse with every season so my hopes for S5 are quite low. I'll probably give it a try though. Season 1 was outstanding, maybe they can come back to that.
So far it's kind of just meandering about, and the fact that the 'kids' are all so old is a bit distracting.

Giving Dr Who spinoff The War Between The Land And Sea a whirl.
Not exactly excited for this one, as Russell Tovey has a bizarrely featureless face I find slightly unsettling. And of course it’s written by Master of Mediocrity, RTD.
Hopefully I’ll be pleasantly surprised.

It’s heavy handed and preachy. Really not sure I’ll watch it further.
Water Pollution Bad.
Greed Bad.
Career Politicians Bad.
RTD Writing Bad.

Sounds exactly like season 3 and 4

I don't know - I quite enjoyed it. My only criticism would be that episode 2 was stuck in the meeting hall. The Sea Devil response to the pollution was quite cool, I thought. My feeling was that the recent Doctor Who was below par because they spent all the Disney money on this. It's certainly better than the awful Torchwood: Children of Earth and Miracle Day. I do hope that the 'war' gets going in the next episode, though.
But I wonder.... what do the local Zygon population think about what's going on?

It just need's a cameo from Jared Leto and Jimmy Carr and then we can look forward to minor explosion of rage from down Kent way.

I’m perfectly capable of not watching objectionable, talentless hacks, thank you.

Welcome to Derry
A prequel series to the recent IT movies. Helluva opening, as a weird family pick up a child hitchhiker, and their kookiness culminates in the Mum giving birth to a mutated, flying baby. Looks a bit like a Caryatid.
And it doesn’t appear to have been a dream sequence!

Wonder if it's related to Gozu, my favorite bull God baby.
