Based on Stephen King’s bestselling novel of the same name, the 10-episode series The Outsider follows police detective Ralph Anderson (Ben Mendelsohn), as he sets out to investigate the mutilated body of 11-year-old Frankie Peterson found in the Georgia woods. The mysterious circumstances surrounding this horrifying crime leads Ralph, still grieving the recent death of his own son, to bring in unorthodox private investigator Holly Gibney (Cynthia Erivo), whose uncanny abilities he hopes will help explain the unexplainable.

The Outsider (2020)
It could and should have been a supernatural blunder. In fact, it is a candidate for one of the best series of the year, which, through a horror motif, similarly to Hill House, deals with something very civil and contagiously melancholic. The slow small-town elegy of guilt and reconciliation is terribly captivating, and nothing will change the disconcerted end. Ben Mendelsohn and Cynthia Erivo are the best detective duo of the year.
