Comment on Twisted Metal on Peacock has been a Pleasant Surprise

I’ll be givin5it a shot tomorrow. From what I’ve seen, it’s not the version I was hoping for, but am still hoping it’ll be fun.
Personally I was hoping for a dark r version that matches twisted metal black story and aesthetic.

I never played Black, so this was kind of the version I was hoping for.
This show does make me want to go back and play that Twisted Metal Black though, and any others I’ve missed. Apparently there was one in 2012. I had no idea.

Twisted Metal Black was the peak of the series. The 2012 reboot was pretty bad.
The TV series could have borrowed from the games a little more and explored the history of a character per episode and kept the arena based content.
The invented post-apocalyptic world and “milkman” plot goes against what the original games was about. Sadly the series will be left as a one season wonder.
