Caroline Framke Chief TV CriticNo one could go from zero to 100 quite like Jessica Walter.Walter, who died at the age of 80 on March 24, embodied bold women who made her impossible to forget throughout her 60-year career.

In her breakout role, in Clint Eastwood’s 1971 thriller “Play Misty for Me,” Walter portrayed Evelyn, a woman who becomes so obsessed with Eastwood’s radio host that she stalks him, threatens him, threatens to kill herself and then really does kill a police officer who gets in her way.

She’s a ticking time bomb with no limit, the terrifying embodiment of female obsession 16 years before “Fatal Attraction” became a phenomenon.

The new HBO drama, which follows a group of women who have been “touched” by some mysterious power that grants them extraordinary abilities, unabashedly embraces its cross-section of genres.
