Stephen King knows exactly what the mistake happened in the series. Mercedes TV

Do you remember the TV series “Mercedes”? A few may.

Mr. Mercedes ran for 30 episodes Over the course of three seasons from 2017 to 2019. The detective series was starring Brendan Glyon, Harry Trioy, Justin Lobe, Kelly Lynch, and Mary Louise Parker, and it was based on a trilogy of boiled novels-“Mr. Mercedes”, “Vehicle”, “The Warriors of the Researchers”, and “The End of Observation”-written by Stephen King in 2014 and 2015 (Gleeson) who participated in a murderous case of a series that was never able From the closure while still active.

The show was developed by David E. Kelley TV star, and viewers and critics welcomed it well. The first season includes a 84 % approval rating on spoiled tomatoes based on 29 minimal reviews. The second season got a 100 % full approval rating, but only four reviews were published. There is no registered degree for the third season of the offer. It seems that “Mr. Mercedes” has not seen widely. In strange, the character Justin Lobby, named Holly Gibni, moved to the 2020 “The Offider” series, where she played her role Cenatia Evo.

Why did everyone get away from “Mr. Mercedes?” Because it was broadcast on the unknown cable network that has not received a lot of attention.

King had a great analogy on the way in which Mr. Mercedes was dealt with. He said:

“It was as if we had brought a stadium to a café. (…) I loved him a lot, but no one saw it.”

It is possible that it takes years and years by reducing the content of Prestige TV, which was made in late twenty and early twenties. How many Quibi offers are still present, waiting to be discovered, for example? How many Facebook watch programs did you see? Or the red YouTube? It seems that the original offers of the public should be distributed among some of the players known for energy (or just the survivors of broadcasting wars) before their discovery. It does not matter whether some of the shows are on the IP or boasted about a wonderful group of high -wage movie stars, many of them simply retreated on the side of the road, just because the seas of the content were very wide.
