We're one week away from the debut of STRANGE NEW WORLDS Season 3, and it looks like we have a couple of gimmick episodes coming up, so we thought we'd talk about some of our favorite gimmick episodes from past years. You know the ones, those episodes with a high concept, or silly concept, that are deliberately trying to attract attention with the "gimmick". We'll have a lot of different examples, and I'm sure we'll each have a different definition we'll be working from.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
