What’s Inside:

  • Curry Barker’s Big Dream
  • Why Nathan Fielder?
  • Our BuzzMedia Take

Guess what?! We just heard some news that has our creative gears spinning! Curry Barker, the director who gave us the gripping show “Obsession,” has a major crush on another creator’s work. A fan, even. He’s totally into Nathan Fielder’s “You Can See Everything.”

And get this: he’s already made a move! Barker actually reached out to Fielder about working together. He pitched an idea. Said he put it “out in the water.” We love that kind of bold move!

Barker saw “You Can See Everything” and thought it was “freakin’ insane and awesome.” He chatted about it at the Time100 Next Gala. We totally get it. The vibe of Fielder’s show? It’s so unique. That stark, almost uncomfortable aesthetic just grabs you. We can only imagine what two minds like theirs would cook up!

Funny thing is, Barker admitted he didn’t know much about Elizabeth Holmes’ story before watching. Fielder’s show clearly made a big impression. It just shows the power of great storytelling!

Imagine the unexpected magic these two could create. Remember when Nelly spilled the tea on Taylor Swift’s surprise gig? Sometimes the most unlikely pairings make the best headlines! Or how about those classic heroes, Krrish and Singham, coming back in animated form? New takes on familiar ideas are always exciting.

Our Take

Okay, we’re officially obsessed with this idea. Barker and Fielder together? Yes, please! The raw, edgy storytelling from Barker combined with Fielder’s genius for blending reality and performance? It could be mind-blowing. We’re crossing our fingers. Maybe it’s time for a new kind of visual story that messes with our heads in the best way!
