I usually don’t like competition and or reality series but this sound pretty cool
Someday, it would be great if those developing these ideas might video the initial meetings. Wouldn’t you want to be ‘the fly on the wall’ listening to the process from the early conceptual stages?
wme is turning the rock into a joke. selling specs w him attached that make no sense, and now this??? projects he will never do. terrible.
It’s great to see how many stories are written about Electus … wouldn’t someone out there like to see a deal go through or a show to actually materialize ?
