When you look at David Gordon Green’s career, it’s really difficult to nail down just what type of filmmaker he is. Does he make indie films? Comedies? Reboot horror franchises? Yes, yes, and yes.

“Succession” may be over, but there’s another show still on HBO about a wealthy patriarch with three meddlesome children that seems only to be growing in popularity. And this one shows no signs of ending soon.
With heavyweights like “Succession” and “Barry” concluded, many have asked on social media, what’s the best show on HBO now? The answer that has come up a lot lately is maybe an unexpected one in “The Righteous Gemstones,” the televangelist family comedy from filmmakers Danny McBride, Jody Hill, and David Gordon Green, the producers and creative team that brought you HBO’s “Eastbound & Down” and “Vice Principals.” READ MORE: Summer 2023 TV Preview: 40 Must-See Shows To Watch Now in its third season, HBO has released the official trailer for the series, which debuts with two episodes on Sunday, June 18, on HBO and MAX.
HBO is about to lose one of its most popular comedy series this month, as “Barry” comes to a close. But in June, it appears that “The Righteous Gemstones” is returning to pick up some of that comedy slack. As seen in the teaser for “The Righteous Gemstones” Season 3, the televangelist family you love to laugh at returns with even more ridiculousness.
If there’s a lesson to be learned from David Gordon Green’s trilogy of “Halloween” legacy-quels, it’s to quit while you’re ahead. His 2018 “Halloween” (a direct sequel to the original 1978 masterpiece and a ret-con of its many, many follow-ups) was a surprisingly effective combination of slasher reanimation and reconsideration, taking the horrors of that Halloween night, and its psychological effects on its survivors and the town where they happened, with uncommon seriousness (yet with flashes of self-awareness and humor).
What’s the most outlandish casting idea in the history of Hollywood? In a roundtable discussion for The Hollywood Reporter with Bowen Yang, Jake Johnson, Jerrod Carmichael, Michael Che, and Will Forte, Danny McBride may have the best answer to that question imaginable. And given the source of the idea, it kind of sort of makes sense, in an odd way.
Sins of the past influencing the decisions of the present weighed heavily over season one of “The Righteous Gemstones,” HBO’s comedic lambasting of televangelist mega-church culture. Putting on a pious show, the drifting, uber-rich Memphis family looked down the barrel of ruin of their own making, bringing them to the brink.
2022 TV season is ramping up and doing so fast.
Danny McBride has built a name for himself as a comedic star and writer. He has worked with Seth Rogen in a wide variety of films and has helmed several HBO series (“Eastbound & Down,” “Vice Principals“).
Of all the evenings for the Haddonfield Department of Plausible Human Behavior to close early, it’s deeply unfortunate that October 31, 2018 had to be one of them. For t’was on that very night that the events soberly documented in “Halloween” (2018), David Gordon Green‘s fun first stab (intentional, as are all puns that follow) at revitalizing John Carpenter‘s beloved franchise, took place.
The “Halloween” films are a franchise of many canons. The series has now retconned itself three times, although it’s up for debate whether Rob Zombie‘s pair of films from the late 2000s count as retcons or remakes.
It seems that every few years, there’s another filmmaker attempting to offer some form of half-hearted commentary on our society’s increased use of the digital devices that seem destined to enslave us all; from the one-two punch of 2013’s dismal “Disconnect” and “Men, Women & Children” the following year to practically every episode of “Black Mirror,” the line on the graph labeled “Quality” tends to ebb and flow with all the frequency of a neglected version of Angry Birds or any number of
If David Gordon Green can reinvigorate the “Halloween” franchise after years of terrible sequels, maybe the filmmaker and his buddies can do the same for “Smokey and the Bandit?” Well, that’s the idea, at least.
Sadly, this week brought news that “Halloween Kills,” which was scheduled to arrive in theaters this October, has been delayed until 2021. This news especially hurts because the last feature in the franchise, 2018’s “Halloween,” was such a shot in the arm for the series, the anticipation for the sequel has been immense.
