Rueben's Ramblings

The 6-part half-hour mini-series Vicious will debut on PBS on June 29 at 10:30 PM.

Partners Freddie (Ian McKellen) and Stuart (Derek Jacobi), who have lived together in a small central London flat for nearly 50 years, are always at each other’s throats, making snide remarks aimed at the other’s age, appearance and flaws. However, underneath their vicious fighting, they share a deep love. Freddie and Stuart are often joined by feisty best friend Violet (Frances de la Tour from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) and Ash (Iwan Rheon from Game of Thrones), their young, upstairs neighbor.

Vicious will air for six straight weeks, ending on August 3.
