    • Trivia
      Jamie Chung said in an interview that she had no problem being completely naked for her first ever nude scene in episode six of the first season because physicality is so important to her character. But she joked that she still doesn't want her parents to watch. She specifically told them, "I'm so proud of my work, but please, for the love of God, just don't."

    Good start, but ultimately unsatisfying
    Creative history lesson whose fantasy ultimately got so absurd that it was unwatchable :-(

    FAQ2

    • Will this have any connection whatsoever (other than the title) to the works of H.P. Lovecraft?
    • Is the character "Ruby Dandridge" Dorothy Dandridge's mother, or named after her?
