Chaos Breeds Chaos 2019 Television Awards – Part 2

Posted by Bryan Caron in Best of, Entertainment, Reviews, Television on September 21, 2019

It’s time now to begin the specialty awards in Part 2 of this year’s Chaos awards. (Check out Part 1).

Best Multi-Character Performance: Janet (D’Arcy Carden), The Good Place

Multiple D’Arcy Carden’s (*The Good Place*)

I wasn’t the biggest fan of D’Arcy Carden when The Good Place premiered; I thought the character of Janet was odd and a little off-center (to be fair, I thought the show was exactly the same – not sure what to make of it early on). But as the show matured, so did my affection for everyone involved. Carden’s place as the powerhouse performer was cemented when she hit her pinnacle best in episode 9 of season 3 titled “Janet(s)”, in which Janet pulled the entire gang into her void to keep them from being sent to the bad place. In order to keep her void from literally tearing itself to pieces, each one had to become Janet. Carden took the ball and ran with it, picking up every little nuance from each character almost to perfection, no more so than Jason-Janet. Her interpretation of the dim-bulb was amazing and hysterically accurate in movement, voice, and reaction. (Tahani-Janet was a close second). In the same episode, we also got to meet Neutral Janet, which was also a riot in and of itself. I wasn’t a fan before; I certainly am now.

Chaos Breeds Chaos 2016 Television Awards – Part 3

Posted by Bryan Caron in Best of, Commentary, Reviews on September 20, 2016

You’ve read Part 1 and Part 2, so why stop there? Below are my final awards for the 2015-2016 television season.

Best end to a long-gestating story arc: Haven

Haven — SyFy

A few seasons ago, Haven started an arc that a guardsman was going to kill Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour). It was the ignition to a full season, in which Nathan (Lucas Bryant) went undercover to find out who it might be and stop them. The arc led to several other story lines, but in the end, Duke’s mysterious killer was never found and the arc seemingly slipped through the cracks. That is, until the season finale, when Nathan was forced to kill Duke to keep Croatoan (William Shatner) from collecting all of the troubles he’d trapped inside him. It was a fitting end to a long forgotten story arc, proving to fans that the creators of Haven were doing everything they could to wrap every loose end in a nice little bow before signing off for good.
