Quote:
Twisted Metal, a half-hour live-action TV series based on the classic PlayStation game series, is a high-octane action comedy, based on an original take by Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick and written by Michael Jonathan Smith, about a motor-mouthed outsider offered a chance at a better life, but only if he can successfully deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. With the help of a badass axe-wielding car thief, he’ll face savage marauders driving vehicles of destruction and other dangers of the open road, including a deranged clown who drives an all too familiar ice cream truck.

Samoa Joe the wrestler as Sweet Tooth with Will Arnett as his voice actor will be interesting. Wonder why they didn't just get one of the videogame voice actors for the voice part unless Peacock thinks Will Arnett as the voice is a going to draw people in.

Great budget show and not the type of show you see very often these days. They had kind of run out of idea's though, single season was good.

I don't think this show is going to go down the Grindhouse path or be good either though Laughing

I saw things like that in here and in other "woman problems" topics so...... Am I the only one that thinks some authorities needs to be alerted about Saner and him possibly being a rapist and/or kidnapper ?Smile

Saner is not being serious. Unless its the subject of Santa!

Yep

Twisted Metal S01

I have absolutely no desire to watch though, and I loved the originals on PSX. Looks awful.

Watched the first episode. It's way better than expected.

I second this sentiment. I expected crap, but I'm two episodes in and can't wait to see what happens next!

Liked the 30min episode format, didn't feel as dragged out, overall better than most garbage they put out these, especially for a show no one asked for.

I enjoyed it more than I should have

Also liked that no real silly homage till the last episode where you see pics of axel or twister reveal
