OV162 - TV One Season Wonders - The Jungle Book (2016), Rogue One and Doctor Strange trailers, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Ben Affleck Directing Batman

1 hour 41 minutes

This week Tiny and I discuss a rundown of some recent movie news and trailers before we share some of our favorite TV show “one season wonders”, those television series that never found their audience and ended up cancelled after one season. Shows discussed include Firefly, Freaks and Geeks, Studio 60, Andy Richter Controls the Universe and more. We also get a call-in from Mike with his review of The Jungle Book!
