Shining Vale could well be the most bat shit crazy show on TV. Starring Friends star, Courteney Cox, Greg Kinnear, Sherilyn Fenn, Mira Sorvino, Merrin Dungey, and Judith Light.
We had a rather long break between seasons one and two, with the second season premiering mid October. Both seasons have been directed entirely by women.
We continue to follow Patricia "Pat" Phelps, losing her mind, after that season one finale.
There is no news on a third season at the conclusion of season two. We are also still waiting on Starz to renew or cancel Tommy's Power series Force for a third run.
While Starz series normally air on Stan in Australia, Binge is the home of this Courtney Cox horror/comedy.
I have to say I really enjoyed the originality of season one, however season two felt a little too over the top. With Pat in episode one losing her filthy mouth no uttering a single swear word, like she was back on network TV in Friends.
It did leave Shining Vale open for a third series as husband Terry Phelps looks to be Shining Vale's new mayor.
It was an interesting ride this sophomore season.
Like an artists difficult second album, this felt like a difficult second season to create.
With shows dropping like wild at present, Starz is also in a decent position with BMF set to premiere in the second quarter of 2024, while they have two acquired series (Mary & George & Three Women) set to also air in 2024. Apparently Hightown has also filmed it's long awaited third season too.
So even after all the strikes, Starz have a fair bit of content up their sleeves. More likely more than most of the premium streaming/cable networks.
Oh well until next week, the Sizzlin' Summer Streaming 23' series continues with more finales incoming of Sort Of from Canada, along with me binging the hell out of the Waco follow up series on Paramount+.
