“Shining Vale”: Courteney Cox and Greg Kinnear in a dark family comedy

Taking off the costume of a series like Friends, which marked several generations so much, is not an easy task. This is how Courteney Cox and her castmates understood it when the most successful comedy of all time lowered its curtain. Now we will see the remembered Monica Geller in a new role (she has already been part of several fictions since the end of the series), as Pat Phelps, in the series Shining Vale which will premiere on March 6 on the Starzplay platform for all of Latin America.

The new fiction, created by Sharon Horgan, which will also star Greg Kinnear , is set in Shining Vale, a Connecticut town where Pat and Terry (Kinnear) are married to buy an old Victorian mansion, leaving behind his cramped Brooklyn apartment. With their life savings, they both decide to take this life change as a way to save the marriage since Pat had a relationship with a young handyman, Frank, who was hired to do a fix. The affair occurred while Terry was working.

Pat is a writer who rose to fame for writing a book on female empowerment at a time when she was held captive by drugs and alcohol. She earned the nickname Lady Porn but now, 17 years later, she finds herself sober but dissatisfied. He still hasn't gotten around to writing her second novel, he can't remember the last time he had sex with her husband, and her teenage sons Ganyor ( Gus Birney ) and Jake ( Dylan Gage ) want nothing to do with him. she.

Over the move to small town Connecticut, Gaynor and Jake are angry and as disconnected as it gets, and though Terry tries to bring the family together, she feels intense rejection from them. On the other hand, Pat is losing the control she has had over the children: Gaynor prefers her dead and Jake has become a zombie because of her addiction to screens.

Buying a 200-year-old house after it's been on the market for nearly three years at a deep discount seemed like a good idea, but Pat feels they're not alone; especially when an old-fashioned-looking woman, Rosemary ( Mira Sorvino ), appears floating outside the family room window.

The house keeps great secrets that this couple clearly did not know: there was a triple murder and another series of atrocities that the real estate agent did not mention.

The big problem is that, over time, Pat realizes that she is the only one who sees the spirit of the person who committed the murders: Rosemary herself, a 1950s housewife who may or may not be trying to take her over. Everyone has their demons, but for Pat Phelps, they may be more than real.

The rest of the cast includes Judith Light as Pat's mother, a woman who never misses an opportunity to criticize her daughter, Merrin Dungey as Kam, Pat's friend and book editor, and Sherilyn Fenn (Twin Peaks). as Robyn Court.
