Happy new year, boys and ghouls! Our first episode of 2024 (and the first after a bit of a hiatus) finally puts the spotlight back on Travolta after a string of Cage double-features and Johnny T failures. Blessedly, the television gods granted him the kind of role his 2010s VOD output could not: His mannered, theatrical turn as OJ Simpson lawyer Robert Shapiro in Ryan Murphy's anthology series American Crime Story: The People vs. OJ Simpson. Among a crowded field of stars (Cuba Gooding Jr. Nathan Lane, Courtney B. Vance, Sarah Paulson), Travolta stands out as OJ's calculating, reputation-focused lawyer, and we talk about how Travolta's idiosyncratic instincts finally worked in his favor. Plus, we talk about the cultural impact of the OJ trial, where we were, and how Murphy's melodrama was a perfect tone to strike for that crazy time in American pop culture.
