PASADENA is a series out of time: past the sell-by date of shows piggybacking off the idiosyncratic mix of soapy suburban horror perfected by TWIN PEAKS and yet ahead of the primetime soap opera revival of the 00s, with future THE WHITE LOTUS scribe MIKE WHITE anticipating some of the deliciously sardonic humour and twisty narratives later infused in endlessly watchable network hits like DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES.
