Because if we can learn to connect with, relate to, and understand characters that were designed to be hated, then we might just have a chance at understanding our villainous selves as well as the villains we face in our everyday lives.MORE Hosts Joe, Tiana

One of the things movies do well is turn this noise into narrative.Plus, it's a great way to talk about the news while leaving out the actual, literal villains in our real lives.MORE Producer/Network Jesse and Forest

These are the characters that fascinate us, that pull us in, that compel us to watch and don't let us look away. And these are the characters that Scoundrel: History's Forgotten Villains is all about...MORE Producer/Network KAST MEDIA | Jason and Carissa Weiser
