The Outcasts is neither as bad as you think it may be, nor something you’ll be surprised by how much you like it.
Let’s just say this, there is an interesting story at the beginning and at the end of the episode, but what lies in between may not be something you can be sold on. At least this early on.
With a strong focus in using archival video when possible, and using actors to fill in the blanks, American Playboy – The Hugh Hefner Story, finds a rather interesting way to liven up the documentary genre.

In the last episode, I said someone likely was going to die, well someone does. It is just not someone I would have guessed.
Despite not watching the first season and being new to the property, I was left completely sold and plan to fit in some time to watch the first season.
The repercussions of the last episode become clear and these young men and women are forced to decide who will dictate their fate? Also, of the possible paths they can choose, be it what’s easy or the dream, which road will they head off on?
Watch the preview above. Seems cool right? Something which gives you a slight steampunk vibe, with a rather interesting synopsis about a brilliant high school dropout that lives in a world which is a machine. Yeah, the preview is cool, the synopsis supports it, but pretty much the most noteworthy thing is the gratuitous amount…

In one of Anton Yelchin’s final films, we are reminded not just of his brilliance, but how excellent the movies he decided to be a part of.
