I haven't been following the production at all, but I am an ENORMOUS fan of the source material. I don't know how well the story will translate over without Jeff Lemire's signature style, but I have high hopes.

Probably not right away but I will at some point. I like the comic a good bit.

There is an actual TM show in development though surprisingly.

Similarly never heard of the comic; thought the trailer was alright but I'm not sold on it yet. Kinda worried it's going in the direction of "generic gritty government agency wants people for being different" without being much more than that

I don't know the source material and the trailer really didn't sell me on the idea. Now that Twisted Metal show in development, however, sounds great. The guys who wrote Deadpool and Zombieland in charge of another property that's equal parts brutal and ridiculous? Sign me up.

Sitting at a 100 RT, if that's something you care about.

Trying to avoid any actual details, though I would like to know going in of this was something they condensed to a single season or adapting in full. Giving it. A little time to find that out from readers.

I came in wondering how you could make a tv show out of Twisted Metal

Then learned someone actually is?

Holy fuck now I want a Twisted Metal Sweet Tooth origin story.

Come to think of it, I want a Twisted Metal Cinematic Universe. That could be incredible.

It's perfect for an anthology series. Using Black as an inspiration, you basically have a bunch of short and incredibly dark horror stories as your base with a ton of opportunities for story intersections between plots. Utilize Calypso as a sort of Crypt-Keeper/Rod Serling esque-figure which can help lean into the dark humor of the earlier entries; and I think you can set up the car combat as either a battle royale race or a Purge-like scenario where a whole city is blocked off to be used as a prison allowing for contestants' to run rampant for a chance at their wish being granted. That is your base for the over-arching narrative.

watched the first couple episodes. Had no idea there was source material behind it, but it's good on its own merit to me at least.

Was hoping to start this with a friend this weekend, but will have to wait til Monday.

The comic was fairly good, so hopefully the show can stand up to it & doesn't change a whole lot.

This.

No, but seriously. Why is it called Sweet Tooth? Is the answer to that a spoiler?

I look forward to this show becoming a big hit with multiple seasons so that the dead franchise Twisted Metal is no longer the thing people think of first.

Fingers crossed.

I am never going to get an answer for why it's called Sweet Tooth, am I?

It's pretty simple, it's because Gus, the half-deer boy, has a literal "sweet tooth" and that becomes his nickname.

I just finished the final episode. It was a lot better than I expected and I would not have watched it if not for the wife because the splash screens for it would have never caught my interest. I thought it looked like it would be stupid from those screens (animal people has zero interest to me as a concept)
