The 1A TV club sees 'Widow's Bay'

1A | Jul 20

Let’s take a scenic trip to New England’s best-kept secret, a beautiful little island just a short three-hour ferry ride from Boston. Some folks say it’s the next Martha’s Vineyard and definitely better than Cape Cod.

But don’t mind the super-dense fog, it’s totally normal. The locals are a bit superstitious, but there’s no need to worry. Not about the strange trance that takes over the townspeople, or the sea hag who gets your skin under her nails so she can track you down, or the murder clown in that weird hotel.

Mayor Tom Loftis has all that under control. Or so he believes.

The 1A Movie Club is turning into the 1A TV club. We sit down to discuss Apple TV’s “Widow’s Bay.”
