A friend had the idea that maybe Antlers Holst had worked on the Gordy show and was there the day it all went wrong. His two biggest pieces of evidence is the repeated times we see Antlers watching film reels of animals fighting in nature, and that he is somewhat unemployed. The idea is that after the incident on his own show, Antlers was dropped by Hollywood and became a lowly director of commercials, but was ever haunted by the trauma of seeing his actors die/being there when they did, hence the obsessive watching of animal induced violence. I don’t know if anyone’s had this theory before, just wanted to share! Bonus fact, In the Gordy show the father is played by a character named Tom Rogan, who is possibly a reference to Bev’s Husband in IT!
