1"Pilot"Ryan MurphyJaffe Cohen & Michael Zam and Ryan MurphyMarch 5, 2017 (2017-03-05)1WBB012.26[3]
With her career waning, Joan Crawford pitches an adaptation of the horror novel What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? to director Robert Aldrich and rival actress Bette Davis. After a string of rejections, Aldrich brings Baby Jane to Jack L. Warner, who reluctantly comes on board despite his hatred toward both actresses. As filming begins, Crawford's acute narcissism and Davis' strong opinions quickly put them at odds.
2"The Other Woman"Ryan MurphyJaffe Cohen & Michael Zam and Tim MinearMarch 12, 2017 (2017-03-12)1WBB021.32[4]
Bette and Joan act on their shared interest to eliminate a showy supporting actress, but their problems at home spill over at work and force Aldrich into the middle of the power play between them.
3"Mommie Dearest"Gwyneth Horder-PaytonTim MinearMarch 19, 2017 (2017-03-19)1WBB031.08[5]

4"More, or Less"Liza JohnsonGina Welch & Tim MinearMarch 26, 2017 (2017-03-26)1WBB041.21[6]
Contrary to all expectations, Baby Jane is a huge hit. With no other film offers coming in, Joan's jealousy grows as Bette's performance is critically acclaimed. She fears that she will not get an Oscar nomination, but that Bette will. Meanwhile, Pauline hopes to direct her own film, but is discouraged by the lack of support from both Aldrich and Joan.
5"And the Winner Is... (The Oscars of 1963)"Ryan MurphyRyan MurphyApril 2, 2017 (2017-04-02)1WBB051.36[7]
With Bette nominated for Best Actress and Joan not recognized at all, Joan and Hedda Hopper plot to sabotage Bette by convincing voters to choose other nominees. Joan persuades nominee Geraldine Page to skip the ceremony and allow Joan to accept the award on her behalf if she wins; Anne Bancroft, unable to attend, also allows Joan to accept her award. Offering herself as a presenter, Joan arrives dressed like a "silver Oscar". With a crushed Bette watching, Joan accepts the Oscar for Bancroft.
6"Hagsploitation"Tim MinearTim Minear & Gina WelchApril 9, 2017 (2017-04-09)1WBB061.06[8]
As Joan promotes her new film, Strait-Jacket, Jack enlists Aldrich to write and direct a new film in the successful "Hagsploitation" genre. Aldrich ultimately takes his script, called What Ever Happened to Cousin Charlotte?, to Darryl F. Zanuck to produce. Aldrich is able to lure Joan in return for top billing, and Bette in return for creative control. Bette becomes increasingly unreasonable, and Joan's suspicions about Bette's influence over Aldrich are confirmed when Joan hears Bette having a bottle of champagne with him.
7"Abandoned!"Helen HuntJaffe Cohen & Michael ZamApril 16, 2017 (2017-04-16)1WBB071.31[9]
Production of Hush... Hush, Sweet Charlotte is underway, and Joan feels like Bette is trying to humiliate her. Joan's lines are constantly changed, she is enraged to learn that Bette is a producer on the film, and awakens from a nap on set one night to discover that the entire production crew has left her and Mamacita behind. When filming returns to Los Angeles, Joan fakes an illness to stall filming in hopes that 20th Century Fox will cancel the film. Joan eventually learns that the studio is suing her for breach of contract, and while in hospital learns via radio announcement that she has been replaced by Olivia de Havilland. Furious with the news, Joan throws a potted plant at the window, just missing Mamacita, who promptly leaves Joan by herself screaming in the hospital, alone.
8"You Mean All This Time We Could Have Been Friends?"Gwyneth Horder-PaytonGina WelchApril 23, 2017 (2017-04-23)1WBB081.30[10]
Following a bad experience in the critically panned film Trog, Joan officially retires from acting. In the years following her retirement, her health deteriorates rapidly. One night, Joan hallucinates seeing Jack and Hedda in her apartment having a party, where she joins them and is later joined by Bette. Despite being a false reality, Joan and Bette end their feud and speak positively about one another. The hallucination ends when Mamacita interrupts, and Joan dies a week later. Meanwhile Bette, who has worked consistently since Sweet Charlotte, mostly in television pilots, learns of Joan's death via a journalist who asks for comment. Bette responds with one final negative comment towards Joan. At that year's Academy Awards, Bette expresses sadness at Joan's brief appearance in the 'In Memoriam' segment. Finally, the film crew behind the documentary on Bette and Joan are denied an interview with Bette, while one of the crew wonders what the very first day of filming Baby Jane was like for the two of them. A flashback, real or fictional is left to audience interpretation, shows the two of them chatting happily and willing to be friends, before going into their separate makeup trailers.

Development

Ryan Murphy, a fan of Davis since his childhood, interviewed the actress just months before her death in 1989. The agreed-upon 20-minute interview lasted four hours, and inspired his characterization of Davis in Feud. He said, "When I would ask her about Joan Crawford ... She would just go on about how much she hated her. But then she would sort of say ... 'She was a professional. And I admired that'."[11] Murphy first conceived Bette and Joan as a film years before the FX series, and approached both Sarandon and Lange about the lead roles.[12] Sarandon said, "It just felt like it didn't have a context, just being bitchy and kind of funny, but what else? In expanding it to eight hours, you could get more complexity and so many other characters."[13] Season 1 of Feud was being written at the same time that Murphy was forming his Half Foundation, which promotes an increased presence of women in film and television production positions.[13] The season features 15 acting roles for women over 40,[13] and half the episodes were directed by women, including Helen Hunt.[12]

Feud, developed by Murphy, was picked up to series by FX on May 5, 2016.[14] Season 1's Bette and Joan is inspired by the real-life feud between Crawford and Davis,[14] and explores issues of sexism, ageism, and misogyny in Hollywood.[13] Its eight episodes were expanded from a feature-length screenplay Murphy had optioned called Best Actress by Jaffe Cohen and Michael Zam.[15]

Sarandon said, "In our story, it was a fact that [the people behind Baby Jane] encouraged the animosity [between Crawford and Davis], first of all to control them, second of all to make what they thought was more onscreen tension, and that really hasn't changed a lot."[13] Melanie McFarland of Salon wrote that the series shows "just how brutal the Hollywood system was on some of the greatest talents in its firmament" and that it "cuts to the root of why collaborating and delighting in the fall of the mighty is eternally marketable."[16] The Crawford-Davis feud was also documented in Shaun Considine's 1989 book Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud.[17]

Casting

Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon were attached to star as Joan Crawford and Bette Davis. Alfred Molina, Stanley Tucci, Judy Davis, and Dominic Burgess were also a part of the cast, in the roles of Robert Aldrich, Jack L. Warner, Hedda Hopper, and Victor Buono, respectively.[14]

In August 2016, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sarah Paulson joined the cast playing Olivia de Havilland and Geraldine Page, respectively.[18][19][20][21]

In September 2016, it was reported that American Horror Story executive producer Tim Minear would be co-showrunning the series with Murphy. Jackie Hoffman joined the cast as Mamacita, Crawford's housekeeper.[22] In November 2016, Molly Price, Kathy Bates and Alison Wright joined the cast of the series, in the roles of Harriet Foster, Joan Blondell, and Pauline Jameson.[23][24][25] In January 2017, it was announced Kiernan Shipka was cast in the series as Davis's daughter, Barbara ("B.D.") Sherry.[26]

Sarandon admitted to initially being "overwhelmed and terrified" about the prospect of portraying Davis accurately. She said, "She's so big and she really was so big, so I tried not to make her a caricature or someone a female impersonator would do ... That was my fear, that she would just be kind of one-dimensional."[13] Lange said her performance was informed by her view that Crawford's "brutal childhood" was masked by the "beautiful, impenetrable veneer of this great, gorgeous movie star ... So she was always on, which is a tremendous burden in and of itself, but always there was this thing lurking underneath of being this poverty-stricken, abused, unloved, abandoned young child and woman."[13] Both Sarandon and Lange researched their roles by reading books by and about Davis and Crawford, and watching and listening to TV performances and recordings.[12][26]

Marketing

Murphy gave several interviews about Bette and Joan during the 2017 Winter TCA Press Tour.[27] The show's first teaser trailer was released on January 19, 2017, and the second the following day.[28] That same week, Lange and Sarandon appeared on the cover of Entertainment Weekly as Crawford and Davis.[29] FX released another teaser on January 23, two on February 5, one on February 7, and one on February 8.[30][31][32][33][34] A short commercial for the show also aired during Super Bowl LI.[35] Before the show's premiere, FX held screenings of the pilot episode at several gay bars across the United States.[36] Bette and Joan had a red carpet premiere at the Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on March 1, 2017.[37]

Broadcast

The first season of 8 episodes, Bette and Joan, premiered on March 5, 2017.[38] The series is set to premiere on BBC Two in the United Kingdom in late 2017.[39]

Reception

Critical response

The first season of Feud has received highly positive reviews, with major praise for Sarandon's and Lange's performances. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the first season has an approval rating of 89% based on 75 reviews, with an average rating of 8.1/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "While campily and sweetly indulgent, Feud: Bette and Joan provides poignant understanding of humanity, sorrow, and pain while breezily feeding inquisitive gossip-starved minds."[40] On Metacritic, the season has a score of 81 out of 100, based on 44 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[41]

Melanie McFarland of Salon called the writing "creatively wicked" and the series "outrageously fantastic", praising Lange and Sarandon for their performances and for "tempering their decadent rages and vengeful spats with a gutting sense of loneliness that tempers its lightness in solemnity."[16] Verne Gay of Newsday wrote that the series is "Full of joy, humor, brilliant writing and performances, and a deep unabiding love for what really makes Hollywood great—the women."[42] People called the series "bitter, biting and entertaining".[43] The Atlantic's Spencer Kornhaber described the first few episodes as "deft and satisfying" but suggested that "maybe six installments, rather than eight, were all this tale needed".[44] Alan Sepinwall of Uproxx wrote that the series is "big and it's catty, but it's also smart and elegant, with the old Hollywood setting toning down some of Murphy's more scattershot creative impulses."[45] Emily Nussbaum, in The New Yorker, praised Murphy's ambition and lauded both stars, saying of the series, "Beneath the zingers and the poolside muumuus, the show's stark theme is how skillfully patriarchy screws with women's heads—mostly by building a home in there."[46]

Not all reviews were positive. Sonia Saraiya of Variety compared Bette and Joan unfavorably to Murphy's The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story, writing that Feud is "neither as brilliantly campy and hateful as What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? nor as contextualizing and profound as People v. O. J. Simpson."[15] David Weigand of the San Francisco Chronicle gave the series a mixed review, criticizing the script and Lange's performance, but praising Sarandon's, writing: "Lange is always interesting, but she’s only occasionally convincing here as Crawford. The voice is too high, for one thing. Sarandon fares better, as much good as that does with such a lousy script."[47] The Guardian also criticized the series for being "lightweight", noting, "At just eight episodes, there’s almost too much to cover and at times, one craves a little more depth to certain moments." They singled out Lange's performance, however, writing, "Lange in particular moves past just an easy impression to something with far more weight. In a reversal of fortune that would make Crawford cackle in her grave, it’s likely that she’ll be the one up for awards at the end of the year rather than her co-star."."[48]

Controversy

On June 30, 2017, a day before her 101st birthday, actress Olivia de Havilland filed a lawsuit against the series for inaccurately portraying her and using her likeness without permission in Feud: Bette and Joan. [57] The lawsuit states that the pseudo-documentary-style of the series leads viewers to believe that the statements made by the actress portraying de Havilland in the show are accurate, but that in fact de Havilland had not said such things in real life. [58]
