He messes up, he patches up, he attacks, but he also protects. Richard Rankin’s scruffy cop is the kind of character that we have seen in so many things, but that doesn’t at all mean Rebus doesn’t make a good show. In fact, the latest BBC adaptation of Sir Ian Rankin’s novels is quite fantastic. It is dark, gritty, mostly grim, and extremely Scottish—exactly the kind of thing you would expect from a show like this. Rebus is solidly made, very well-acted, and offers you a lot of thrills. The series doesn’t particularly end on a cohesive note, though, and that’s where this article might come in handy. Let us jump in.

Raise your hand if you were totally fooled by ABC’s promo for this week’s 9-1-1, which led viewers to believe that we were in for an hour-long standoff between Bobby and Amir (Malcom-Jamal Warner), the nurse who lost the love of his life in the Minnesota fire caused by Bobby all those years ago.

In a candid interview with Entertainment Weekly, showrunner Mattson Tomlin sheds light on the creative process behind the highly anticipated Terminator Zero anime, revealing how the production team navigated the challenges of adapting the iconic franchise for a Japanese audience.
One of the most distinctive aspects of Terminator Zero is the series breaking away from its American roots and incorporating Japanese elements, a decision influenced by studio Production I.G.
Tomlin revealed that he took this idea a step further and decided to set the eight-episode anime entirely in Japan. This, however, led to an unexpected cultural clash. Notably the absence of firearms in Japanese society.
He recounts his realization of this difference when his initial scripts included scenes of violence in Tokyo, only to be informed by Production I.G that guns are not prevalent in Japan. This revelation prompted Tomlin to rethink his approach and adapt the storyline accordingly.
