Sci-Fi Bulletin: Exploring the Universes of SF, Fantasy, Horror and Spy-fi!

An exploration of faith versus technology — an epic battle of biblical and binary proportions – is promised in Mrs Davis, the new series from Tara Hernandez and Damon Lindelof, which has been given a 10 episode order by Peacock.

“I am so excited to be working with Damon and Tara on what I believe will be the next must binge series for Peacock,” Peacock’s Susan Rovner said. “From Lost to The Leftovers to Watchmen, Damon’s work is synonymous with content and storytelling that doesn’t just break through the clutter, but also storms onto the scene and demands that you watch or risk being left out. Tara’s experience on The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon brings Mrs. Davis a sense of humour and unexpected storytelling I feel confident will engage viewers and fans for seasons to come.”

Hernandez noted : “In a year that has felt totally surreal, partnering with Damon to craft the world of Mrs. Davis truly takes the cake. To have the support of Warner Bros., who championed our vision from the beginning, and to now have the perfect home at Peacock alongside Susan, Lisa, and the rest of their incredible team — I am at a loss for words. I promise to find them as we bring this wonderfully weird story to life.”

Lindelof said: “Tara Hernandez is an astonishingly original talent. Talking about Mrs. Davis with her was one of the few things that kept me sane through the pandemic. … I can’t wait for the world to be introduced to both of them.”

Channing Dungey, Chairman of Warner Bros. Television Group added,  “A series like Mrs. Davis is exactly why we love making television. The brilliant minds of Tara Hernandez and Damon Lindelof have concocted one of the most innovative, undeniable concepts imaginable. We are so thrilled to be going on this wild ride with them.”
