While Gina Rodriguez is best known for leading The CW’s Jane the Virgin, she’s also acted in many other films and TV shows.

Rodriguez began her acting career by guest starring on many procedurals, such as Law & Order, The Mentalist, and Rizzoli & Isles. She also had a short stint on the CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful.

Whether Rodriguez directs independent films or romantic comedies, fights bad guys, or voices popular characters in animated classics, she does it with style.

Television loves to play it safe — or at least, that’s what the ratings suggest.

Audiences know what they like, and networks quickly replicate proven formulas.

But every so often, a show comes along that says, “Forget the rules.” These are the bold experiments, the oddball gems that refuse to color inside the lines.

From space trash collectors to singing cops, these shows dared to push boundaries, defy expectations, and embrace the absurd.

While most of them didn’t last long, their ambition helped shape the TV landscape, paving the way for today’s quirkiest hits.

Let’s celebrate the weird, the wild, and the downright baffling shows that were too ahead of their time to survive — but left a lasting mark on television history.

The Pioneers of Weird

TV in the 1960s and ‘70s wasn’t exactly known for taking risks, but there were glimmers of experimentation.

Replicator, the new film from director Mark Andrew Hamer and co-writer Russ Lindway comes with a wonderfully comic book styled poster, a title that makes you think of the Resonator from Lovecraft’s From Beyond and a plot that recalls Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Darby Vincent is having a bad day. First, a judge let the abusive husband of the woman she was representing walk free thanks to the incompetence of Sheriff Williams’ the same married sheriff she’s having an affair with.

Then she comes home to find her father Ron, whom she reluctantly allowed to move in with her, getting it on with Gina. And then goes off on her for interrupting them. It’s obvious that terminal cancer hasn’t...

‘Exhibiting Forgiveness’: Sundance Review

Visual artist Titus Kaphar’s feature directorial debut premiered in Sundance’s US Dramatic Competition in January and explores parental relationships and the wounds of the past.

Right from the title director Gia Elliot and co-writer Emma Fitzpatrick make it clear that Take Back the Night isn’t just another monster movie. By using the slogan of many marches and movements protesting violence against women as their title they signal their intention to make this about more than simple scares.

The challenge with that is not letting the message overwhelm the actual plot and the film’s entertainment value. Or worse become heavy-handed and preachy. The Hunting, which I recently reviewed, is an example, its message about veterans and Ptsd taking over what was supposed to be a werewolf film. Can the makers of Take Back the Night succeed where many have failed before?...

HBO Max announced the March 3 premiere of its mini-series “The Tourist,” starring Golden Globe nominee Jamie Dornan (“Belfast”). Dornan stars as a British man who is pursued by a large tank truck in the Australian outback, ending with him waking up in the hospital with no memory of his identity. As people from his past follow him around, he begins to look for answers.

The cast also includes Danielle Macdonald (“Dumplin’”), Shalom Brune-Franklin (“Line of Duty”), Damon Herriman (“Mindhunter”), Alex Dimitriades (“Total Control”), Ólafur Darri Ólafsson (“Eurovision Song Contest”), and Kamil Ellis (“Bushwacked!”).

“The Tourist” was written by Emmy and Golden Globe winners Harry and Jack Williams (“Baptiste”), who also executive produce alongside Christopher Aird (“Liar”). Lisa Scott (“The Hunting”) is a producer and Chris Sweeney (“Back to Life”) is an EP and director. The show is produced by Two Brothers Pictures (an All3Media company) for the BBC, in association with Highview Productions,...

With the fourth and final season of BBC's "Killing Eve" coming just around the bend, no one is ready to say goodbye, but a collaboration between the series and Hunter Boots can hopefully offer a bit of retail therapy to curb our collective mourning. The limited-edition collaboration brings four new pieces to Hunter's lengthy catalog, combining the company's reputation for a durable and sleek boot with the "tough, daring, and bold themes of the show to create something that could be worn in its cinematic universe," the brand said in a press release. The two new styles developed are "The Hunting," a mid-calf...

On top of plot twists, black humor and bloody action, Killing Eve delivers a hefty dose of envy-worthy outfits. Now, fans can get some of that espionage style for themselves: Hunter Boots is teaming up with Killing Eve for a limited-edition capsule inspired by the hit series.

The Hunting opens with a vaguely glimpsed furry creature killing a drunken fisherman under the full moon. When he doesn’t come home, his wife Sarah calls in a missing person report, one of several the town is dealing with. Chief Galligan sends Detective Ryan Conner (Peyton Hillis; former NFL Fullback and cover athlete on Madden NFL 12) and his partner Dave (Keith Migra) to look into it. Dave, I should add, is the chief’s son.

Meanwhile out at Talbot’s Wolf Sanctuary Maggie Talbot (Joelle Westwood) is coping with the one-year anniversary of her parent’s death and, with the help of Todd (Joaquin Guerrero; Warpath), keeping their dream alive.
