Failure to Franchise

Episode Forty-Seven - Son of the Pink Panther (1993)


Listen Later

In the second installment of our second annual "Summer Surprise," we're looking at the final feature film of a legendary comedy director. Not only that, but it was another entry in a mega-successful, beloved franchise from that very same director. So why didn't this attempt to restart the series after a long break catch on with audiences? Well, there are many answers to that (and we discuss many of them here), but let's just go ahead and say the transition from Peter Sellers to Roberto Benigni was probably always destined to be a tough sell to audiences. But is there anything here for fans of the previous Pink Panther films to enjoy? Listen on and find out.
