Get out your membership cards. The last Blockbuster store in the US is planning to run an ad during the Super Bowl.
No, a bunch of late fees didn’t suddenly appear in its bank account. The store, located in Bend, Oregon, won’t be buying a seven-milliion-dollar TV spot. Instead, it’s streaming on Instagram. It will also play it on a VHS tape at the store, then will make the tape available for rent at 2 per day.
The store is no doubt counting on media (like this site) to pick up on the plans, thus saving several million dollars.
“We are doing a fun, retro-style commercial that we will be releasing during the Big Game. We are featuring it during halftime in the store and on social media,” store owner Sandi Harding told Oregon Live in an email.

Blockbuster is not returning for a second season. Netflix has cancelled the comedy series, which arrived on the streaming service with 10 episodes on November 3rd.
From creator, writer, executive producer, and showrunner Vanessa Ramos, the Blockbuster series stars Randall Park, Melissa Fumero, Tyler Alvarez, Madeleine Arthur, Olga Merediz, Jb Smoove, and Kamaia Fairburn. The workplace comedy follows Timmy Yoon (Park), a dreamer who operates a Blockbuster Video store. And after learning he is operating the last Blockbuster store in America, Timmy and his employees — including his long-time crush, Eliza (Fumero) — fight to stay relevant and keep the store afloat.

Blockbuster has closed for business… again. It was announced today that Netflix has cancelled Blockbuster, their single-camera workplace comedy series which revolved around the last Blockbuster in America.
Blockbuster didn’t attract much interest upon its debut on Netflix last month, as it failed to break into the Netflix Top 10 rankings in the U.S. and was largely dismissed by critics. The series starred Randall Park as Timmy Yoon, “an analog dreamer in a 5G world. He’s spent his entire adult life dedicated to his first love, movies — a passion that’s kept him at his first and only job, managing his hometown Blockbuster Video.” When he learns that his store has become the last Blockbuster in America, he takes action to stay open and keep his friends employed. “Timmy and his staff quickly realize that being home to the last Blockbuster might actually be what their community needs...

Netflix is closing up its Blockbuster.
The streaming service made the decision Friday to cancel the comedy series after a single season.
The series didn't make an impact on the streamer's viewership metrics, which typically spells doom for any series.
The series launched to tepid reviews in November.
Blockbuster starred Randall Park (Timmy), Melissa Fumero (Eliza), Tyler Alvarez (Carlos), Madeleine Arthur (Hannah), Olga Merediz (Connie), Jb Smoove (Percy), and Kamaia Fairburn (Kayla).
"Timmy Yoon (Randall Park) is an analog dreamer in a 5G world. He’s spent his entire adult life dedicated to his first love, movies — a passion that's kept him at his first and only job, managing his hometown Blockbuster Video," the logline teases.

The comedy series “Blockbuster” has been canceled after just one season at Netflix.
The 10-episode series launched its one and only season on November 3. The show was a single-camera workplace comedy about the employees of the last Blockbuster Video in the world.
The series starred Randall Park, Melissa Fumero, Olga Merediz, Tyler Alvarez, Madeleine Arthur, Jb Smoove, Kamaia Fairburn, Leonard Robinson, and Keegan Connor Tracy. Vanessa Ramos created the series and served as executive producer. David Caspe and Jackie Clarke also served as writers and executive producers. John Davis and John Fox executive produced via Davis Entertainment. Universal Television was the studio.
The cancellation of the series is not altogether unexpected. “Blockbuster” failed to break into the Netflix Top 10 rankings in the U.S. upon its debut upon its debut and in the first full week after its debut. Per Netflix, it only reached the top 10 in two countries following its launch,...

Netflix has opted not to renew new comedy series Blockbuster for a second season.
The decision is not surprising. The single-camera workplace comedy starring Randall Park had a quiet run after launching Nov. 3 and never cracked Netflix’s weekly Top 10.

Netflix’s pickup of the series was full of irony since Netflix originated as an underdog movie rental upstart that was almost crushed by then-dominant giant Blockbuster Video before ultimately turning the tables and forcing Blockbuster out of business.

The only way to succeed is to remind their community that they provide something big corporations can’t: human connection.
Ah, Blockbuster. I genuinely miss going to my local store every other weekend to rent the newest video game, and spending the entire week playing it and having the time of my life before the dreaded day when I ultimately had to return the game in the little metal door outside the building. There was something special about Blockbuster Video that nearly everyone seems to miss.

Say what you will about Netflix’s “Blockbuster,” but it’s certainly a bold choice.
Bolder still might be the creators’ decision to set the comedy series not in the eponymous home video company’s heyday, but in the present, where there is exactly one Blockbuster left in the world. Putting “Blockbuster” in 2022 provides sky-high stakes for the store’s survival as it competes with streaming, but it also means characters should be engaging with social media and technology, and the show either doesn’t acknowledge or can’t quite understand that. “Blockbuster” feels out of step with the times for multiple reasons, and it’s puzzling lack of understanding of social media doesn’t do the show any favors.

Netflix is really mining the '90s nostalgia caves these days.
On Blockbuster Season 1 Episode 1 we are introduced to Timmy and his staff, who just happen to work at the last Blockbuster video rental store on Earth.
Look, nostalgia's not a bad thing. I used to work in a Blockbuster, and it was my favorite service job. All the staff and customers loved movies. I made friends for life and got ten free rentals a week. I'll always have a soft spot.
If you don't know the history of Blockbuster's downfall, it's a lesson in corporate schadenfreude.
In 2000, Blockbuster turned down a deal to purchase Netflix for 50 million. How the mighty have fallen -- in 2011, they filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
Blockbuster has now gone the way of the mom-and-pop shops and indie video rental stores it swallowed up and put out of business.

When “The Last Blockbuster,” a documentary celebrating the Blockbuster Video store in Oregon that became the final surviving vestige of the once-mighty video rental chain, found its audience on Netflix, the irony was so neat it barely qualified as such. After all, where else could a contemporary documentary reach so many people but the very streamer that helped kill off Blockbuster?
It’s a bit more perverse, however, that Netflix has apparently made Blockbuster nostalgia part of their brand, picking up “Blockbuster,” a workplace sitcom once intended for NBC. The show is loosely based on the same final Blockbuster outpost depicted in the doc — though the location has shifted to a midwestern strip mall — and follows the store’s transition from part of a waning corporation to a de facto mom-and-pop operation. Timmy (Randall Park), an earnest go-getter who hasn’t actually gone anywhere in his decades with the store...

The single sharpest joke of Netflix’s Blockbuster is the one contained right there in that phrase: This is a comedy set at the very last Blockbuster on Earth, premiering on the very platform that helped kill all the other Blockbusters.
The irony is so striking and unavoidable that the series tackles it head-on in the very first scene, as a customer admits he hasn’t come by lately because he’s been “doing Netflix, like everybody.” The recommendation algorithm’s been letting him down, though, and that’s where the store staff comes in. It takes a human touch to deduce that what he really needs for his broken heart is Under the Tuscan Sun, when he’d never have picked it out for himself.

There's a moment in the pilot of "Blockbuster," the new Netflix sitcom from "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" and "Superstore" writer Vanessa Ramos, when the staff of the last Blockbuster in the world reaches their hands out, going in for a morale-raising group cheer. Before they can count down ("'Blockbuster' on three!"), jaded employee Eliza (Melissa Fumero) pauses to point out the irony of a once-monopolizing video store chain that put mom-and-pop stores out of business now being positioned as an underdog. It's an apt footnote and a rare moment of self-awareness for a series that, despite being quite funny, often has trouble reconciling the odd space it takes up in a late capitalist world.
There is, for example, the inherent contradiction of the show's own premise. "Blockbuster" sets itself up as a series that's all about the scrappy fight to keep physical media alive, but it's streaming exclusively on Netflix, the company that was,...

We all know how the story of Blockbuster ends. The movie rental chain, which once had 9,000 stores across the US, filed for bankruptcy in 2010, and its empire crumbled quickly after that. However, there's a lesser-known footnote to that story: America's very last Blockbuster is actually still open. The store - located in Bend, Oregon - was the subject of the 2020 documentary "The Last Blockbuster" and now Netflix's fictionalized "Blockbuster" series.
The show stars Randall Park as store manager Timmy Yoon, who is desperately trying to keep his location afloat as the business crashes down around him. And just like Netflix's "Blockbuster" has its roots in real life, Park also shares a special connection to the story. "A lot of what Timmy goes through, it was very resonant to me," Park tells Popsugar. "My dad owned a one-hour photo store, which is another industry that kind of saw its demise due to the digital age.

Madeleine Arthur grew up going to the Blockbuster in her neighborhood; it was walking distance from her house in Vancouver. "I remember specifically the layout of where the new releases were," the actor tells Popsugar. "They were on the right side of the store."
Of course, her hometown Blockbuster is gone - it's a vintage clothing store these days. But she still remembers her family's frequent trips. "I loved going," the 25-year-old says. "I feel like it's what sparked my love for movies, going to pick out movies every week."
So it's fitting that Arthur is now a cast member of Netflix's "Blockbuster," a nostalgic series following the employees at the last Blockbuster in the world. The show is "a celebration of movies, and it's about rekindling human connection in this digital world," she says.

Once upon a time in cities across the U.S., one of the most popular destinations on a Friday or Saturday night, aside from the multiplex, was the local Blockbuster.
Though it has long since been replaced by streaming, the rental chain, which went belly up more than a decade ago, once held prime spots on the weekend social calendars of families, couples, teens, gamers and solo movie-lovers as the place to peruse the shelves and pick out a VHS or DVD to take home — temporarily.
“I would spend all of Friday night in a Blockbuster because I could never decide what movie to get,” Randall Park recalled to The Hollywood Reporter on Thursday before heading into the world premiere of his new Netflix series Blockbuster at Tudum Theater in Hollywood. “I was one of those guys who would be there for hours...

There’s something undeniably troll-like about Netflix launching a series revolving around an enterprise it helped run into the ground. Then again, Blockbuster Video owes a portion of its pop culture relevancy to the streamer, who in 2020 released The Last Blockbuster, a documentary about the video rental store’s last gasp. Putting those things aside, today, we have Netflix’s Blockbuster trailer. The promo teases the new comedy series from Vanessa Ramos, featuring a cast of comedic greats struggling to keep the last Blockbuster Video from going the way of the dodo.
Here’s the official description for Blockbuster:
Timmy Yoon (Randall Park) is an analog dreamer in a 5G world. He’s spent his entire adult life dedicated to his first love, movies — a passion that’s kept him at his first and only job, managing his hometown Blockbuster Video.

Prepare to feel nostalgic after watching the first trailer for Netflix’s upcoming comedy series “Blockbuster”.
The trailer begins with Randall Park, who stars as Timmy Yoon, the manager of his hometown Blockbuster video, finding out that his location is the last one standing in America. Suddenly, he’s faced with the challenge of saving his store with the help of his staff, including “recently single long-time crush, Eliza (Melissa Fumero), aspiring filmmaker Carlos (Tyler Alvarez), mother figure Connie (Olga Merediz), naive Hannah (Madeleine Arthur), and landlord’s daughter, Kayla (Kamaia Fairburn),” as per Entertainment Weekly.

Netflix’s new thriller series Devil in Ohio has shot to the top of its TV rankings.
The series, which is inspired loosely by true events, as well as Daria Polatin’s 2017 novel of the same name, debuted on the streaming service earlier this month.
Starring Emily Deschanel, Madeleine Arthur and Sam Jaeger, Devil in Ohio focuses on the investigation surrounding a satanic cult in rural Ohio.
In a three-star review for The Independent, Annabel Nugent wrote: “In lesser shows, dipping into the past is a clunky distraction from the action at hand, but the flashbacks of Devil in Ohio are welcome moments that pull back the veil on the mystery at pace and for once actually deliver on the darkness promised by a show’s premise.
“Certainly, Devil in Ohio does not reinvent the wheel – and no doubt it’ll be subsumed into the amorphous mass of Netflix adaptations sooner rather than later,...

If you're a fan of thrilling satanic cult tales and psychological dramas, Netflix's "Devil in Ohio" might be right up your alley. The eight-part series based on the 2017 book of the same name by Daria Polatin (who also serves as the showrunner) follows Emily Deschanel's Suzanne, a psychiatrist whose family life turns upside down after she rescues and provides shelter to a cult escapee named Mae (Madeleine Arthur).
After that cliffhanger of a season finale, many fans are wondering if there will be a follow-up season to provide closure for all the questions left unanswered. So, let's get into all the details we have about "Devil in Ohio" season two so far.

Set in a fictional Ohio town, believed to be a few hours from Cleveland, Devil in Ohio stars Bones actor Emily Deschanel as Suzanne, a mother and psychiatrist who invites her new young patient (Madeleine Arthur) into her home when she’s brought into the hospital after a traumatic episode.
However, as the eight-episode series unravels, it is revealed that the young girl has escaped from the clutches of a satanic cult, leaving Suzanne’s family in grave danger.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for all of Devil in Ohio.] Netflix’s new limited series thriller ends on a very unsettling note, which is what makes it so good. In Devil in Ohio, hospital psychiatrist Suzanne (Emily Deschanel) brings a cult escapee, Mae (Madeleine Arthur), into her home. The rest of her family is less than pleased, especially as the cult want her back and the teen exhibits strange behavior. By series’ end, Suzanne and her husband Peter (Sam Jaeger) are separated, and he’s living with the kids. Suzanne is with Mae… but learns, in the final moments, that the teen staged her own kidnapping and had willingly returned to the cult. (The psychiatrist rescued her.) Daria Polatin, who wrote the book inspired by a true story and serves as creator, showrunner, and executive producer on the limited series, breaks down that ending and addresses if there will be a second season after that cliffhanger.

A hospital psychiatrist, Suzanne Mathis (Emily Deschanel) takes in a mysterious, traumatized teen patient, Mae (Madeleine Arthur), in Devil in Ohio, Netflix‘s new suspense thriller based on the novel by Daria Polatin. Mae wants to assimilate with the Mathis family, including Suzanne’s three daughters, but she’s also trying to hide things from her past. “You’ll see there’s twists and turns with what Mae does because of her trauma. This whole thing plays with trust, suspicion, what’s good, what’s bad, what’s evil,” Deschanel says. As for the “devil” of the title? “We dive into Mae’s background, which is pretty scary — her community, where she comes from. We don’t have to be scared of many supernatural things here — it’s human beings who are the scary entity in this show but there’s an element of devil worship,” Deschanel says. “Mae just...

“The lessons of the fire, as we reach for something higher,” a voice wails as images of flying crows and blood dripping down a rose’s thorny stem flood the screen. “With eyes we’ve all come to know, he’s the devil in Ohio.”
This theme song has a self-conscious ludicrousness that’s ultimately earned by the series it introduces — at least in one sense. Netflix’s “Devil in Ohio” isn’t so great that its missteps end up making sense, but it’s so schlockily unembarrassed by its excesses and its shortcomings alike that it feels difficult to critique.
Here, Emily Deschanel plays Suzanne, a psychiatrist whose particularly challenging new patient Mae (Madeleine Arthur) seems in urgent need of shelter after escaping a cult.

"Devil in Ohio" centers on psychiatrist Dr. Suzanne Mathis (Deschanel) as she temporarily shelters a teenager and begins to experience unusual and unsettling occurrences within her home.

Sometimes the most admirable, well-meaning attempts to protect and save a seemingly innocent child can ultimately cause life-threatening harm to all of the unsuspecting adults in heir lives. That’s certainly the case for actress Emily Deschanel and Madeleine Arthur’s characters in Netflix‘s new limited horror television series, ‘Devil in Ohio.’ When Deschanel’s character, Midwestern hospital […]

It’s hard to recall a time when Netflix Original indeed meant “original”. Lately, it’s been adaptation after adaptation. The output varies in quality, most coming in at a mid-level rating best described as “background noise while I do my laundry” but a few surpass all expectations (The Queen’s Gambit). Others make me reconsider my subscription for good (Echoes). The latest to throw its hat in the ring is Devil in Ohio, not to be confused with the streamer’s Robert Pattinson film The Devil All the Time, a sinister tale incidentally also set in Ohio.
The eight-episode series puts to screen Daria Polatin’s 2017 novel of the same name, itself inspired by a true story. Bones star Emily Deschanel plays Suzanne, a mother and psychiatrist who invites her new young patient (a believably wide-eyed Madeleine Arthur) into her home when she’s brought into the hospital after a traumatic episode.

Just what will bringing in a cult escapee do to the Mathis family in Devil in Ohio? It’s going to be one wild, suspenseful ride. In the Netflix limited series, inspired by a true story and based on Daria Polatin’s best-selling thriller novel, hospital psychiatrist Dr. Suzanne Mathis (Emily Deschanel) brings cult escapee Mae (Madeleine Arthur) home with her. But Suzanne’s world is quickly turned upside down as that threatens to tear her family apart. Polatin, who serves as creator, showrunner, and executive producer on the thriller, talks about casting the key roles of Suzanne and Mae and teases how the limited series will end. Talk about casting Suzanne and Mae. Daria Polatin: I actually went to college with Emily — we went to Boston University together and studied theater and did plays together. So I had worked with her before and knew her as a friend and...

Emily Deschanel was wholly unaware that Bones had gotten a futuristic reboot (of sorts), until TVLine looped her in during the video Q&a above.
TVLine spoke with Deschanel ahead of this Friday’s premiere of Devil in Ohio, an eight-episode Netflix drama in which she plays Dr. Suzanne Mathis, a hospital psychiatrist who quietly shelters a cult escapee named Mae (played by Snowpiercer alum Madeleine Arthur). Suzanne’s world is soon turned upside down as the mysterious Mae’s presence threatens to tear her own family apart.

What starts as a family drama quickly spins into a nail-biter of a thriller in Netflix‘s Devil in Ohio. Has Ohio psychiatrist Suzanne Mathis’ latest patient, a teen named Mae (Madeleine Arthur), been abused? She isn’t saying. “The show explores what trauma can do to people,” says Deschanel. Mae’s reason for keeping quiet: the time she spent as a member of a cult. Unable to find housing for Mae, Suzanne invites her home with her husband Peter (Sam Jaeger) and their three daughters. “It’s a huge ethical breach,” admits Deschanel, “but I understand that impulse; you’re worried about her going onto the streets.” Mae’s presence, and the unfolding mystery, “causes shifts [in relationships] in the family,” adds Deschanel. That’s when things get scary. “The question we’re always asking with Mae: Is she a force for good or evil?” says Daria Polatin, who adapted the...
