Flanagan's Wake | A Mike Flanagan Podcast

Surprise! We decided to release our first episode covering Carrie a little early this week. The editing was all done, and we said screw it, let's go! This week we begin our time with Mike Flanagan's Carrie, covering the first episode, "First Period." We chat about how much we're enjoying Mike's changes to some of our key characters, the incredible performances, and even make some (probably wrong) predictions on where the series is going. 
Discussion Question: What is your favorite first day of school depicted in stories?
Next week, Carrie continues with episode 2: "Foreign Language"

This week on the show, we take a look at the 2013 Adaptation of Carrie. It's.... well... it's kind of an adaptation of the book, but also kind of an adaptation of De Palma's movie...but also kind of a mess?

This week on the show, we are taking a look at Brian De Palma's classic adaptation of Carrie. It's a weird, wonderful movie that only De Palma could make. It also made it clear to us that there was still so much more story to tell here. If possible, we're even more excited about Mike's adaptation. 
Discussion Question: What is a better TV release model? Releasing all episodes at once (binge) or week to week. 
Next week, we take a look at the 2013 Carrie adaptation. It's.... a movie
