Is “Red Widow” The New “Breaking Bad”?
I tried really tried to watch some of “Red Widow” last night, since at least one reviewer called it “Breaking Bad” meets “Desperate Housewives.” But there were just too many strained plot devices and cheeseball exchanges for me to last long. You don’t know the story of “Red Widow”? A suburban mother of three is pulled into the drug business when her brother robs a Russian mobster and she finally opens her eyes to admit that not only was her father a mobster, but her husband was breaking the law as well. And now it all falls to her. Got that?
