Tonight’s episode of Immortalized is the season finale. It’s been on my DVR for two weeks, much to my bafflement, and I’m sure this says everything we need to know about the show’s chances of a second season. You don’t randomly broadcast the finale out of sequence on a Monday if you think anyone is […]

This week’s Immortalized begins with a load of crazed, sweaty bombast from Zach Selwyn, whose hands trace ever more complex glyphs of desperation. Our challenger? Erich Carter, whose clients include A-list celebrities, and whose patter sounds coached.

This week’s challenger is a 32-year taxidermy veteran who apparently thinks dressing like a beach bartender makes him an outlaw. Meet Mike “Mac” McCulloch and his A game. Mike […]

We’re back for week 2 of Immortalized, and Zach Selwyn is still being held captive. His every movement is a semaphore of pleading and dread. And our challenger this week is CJ Fegan, who gives 110% and does not accept failure. CJ apparently lives in a David Lynch version of the Bates Motel, and is […]

It’s Valentine’s Day, which is an odd choice to debut a show about competitive taxidermy, but it works for me. My wife is allergic to V-day, which she considers to be the antithesis of all things romantic, so I get the stink-eye for bringing home flowers and artisan chocolates. However, I got a big smile […]
