The F-Files
If it feels like the F-Files came out of left field after Blended , that’s fair. It’s definitely an indulgent choice on my part. If you’re not familiar with the show, it’s notable for a few things: great chemistry between the leads, pushing the boundaries of sci-fi/horror on TV back when it was new, and not being afraid to let you wonder. That’s one of the things I like most about it: it’s comfortable being ambiguous. At a glance, it probably looks like we’re hitting the brakes pretty hard after Blended, or swerving away from that level of zany horniness, but the swerve isn’t as big as you think. VFU characters will populate the F-Files, and the horniness will be there too. We won’t know how well the combination of lewd and spooky works until we see how it goes. Historically, this has been a weak area for me, and I’m being intentional about this being an opportunity to do better. I hope you’ll give F-Files a shot, and whether it goes well or not, I expect the next daily to be Blended ...
