Tadd and Peter scramble together to react to the huge news that Mike Flanagan and Trevor Macy own the rights to the Dark Tower series and are hoping to make 5 seasons of television of it and 2 feature films. They breakdown everything Mike and Trevor said about the series and geek the fuck out as well as talk some knee-jerk reactions. Stay tuned for the Year End Bash on 12/31 as they dive deeper into this topic including dream casting (including the Mike Flanagan regulars).
