I fucking love this show. Its so perfectly bad on purpose its great. Fucking love it.

This and fallout have been great I love them equally for different reasons.

They're killing off characters a lot faster than I expected. Curious if anyone will survive outside of the two mains

That's what I thought too...

But FYI: Episodes 10, 11 and 12 have dropped. All episodes are now available to view.

I have watched episode 10 and 11, but I will stop with the episode summaries and I will not give away any spoilers. Episode 10 and 11 is where the bulk of the final tournament happens. The show may not have the budget of something like fallout, but NBC really throws a lot at episode 11. Most of the tournament events happen between episodes 5 and 11, with character driven episodes spread out between them. The producers really pick and choose what episodes the car combat goes into. Overall, I think they deliver the tournament that I wanted to see in season 1.

I have not seen episode 12 yet, so I can't comment on the final outcome. It is hard for me to judge how fans of the series will receive this season, given the outcomes of some of their favorite characters from the games. . There were some episodes that I didn't care for, I can say the same for so many current shows. But, I enjoyed this season overall for what it is

Damn, just got to the tournament and this season has been great! A little slow maybe in the first few eps with some of the side characters but the action has been pretty on point and its surprisingly brutal towards who they kill.

Casting director got good taste too, damn some honeys this season.

Agreed. Calypso was an amazing casting. Season 2 was even better and looks like season 3 is set up to be pretty good.

Found out after that Raven was the same actress

That played the annoying Madisynn girl on She-Hulk.

They did lose quite a few staples but there are others that can join in season 3. Twister, Mr Slam, Darkside, etc. I wonder if we will see Dark Tooth?

Best game to tv show season ever now that it's over even above Fallout and everything else. Not only a game to tv but I'll say it's the best season out of every tv show so far. Can't wait for season 3 and I think they're already working on it anyway.

 

[bitbydeath]

Should re-watch, but I think all the wishes came true, just not how they hoped.

Eg.


Frostbite got warm.
Dollface came back alive.
That guy with the robot car flew.
Walls have come down, in terms of an all out war.


I don't remember them all.

 

[Beretta]

Once they add Yellow Jacket, then I'll start watching. I can't believe they haven't added the cab king yet. Disgrace.

 

[jason10mm]

my son wants to play the games now. are these available for the ps5 and if so, which is the best to start with?

If you have a PlayStation plus premium subscription, parts 1-4 are on there for free. I think they are otherwise $15 each (may be lower where you are). He should start with the first one, it's great.

Raven: wishes to see Kelly again
Vermin gets splattered like a bug on a windshield - wished for bugs to rule the world.
Mayhem wished for a better life (kinda gets it for a short while)
Stu gets his wish


Unknown wishes:


Knights of Nebraska: They never say what their wish was. Probably had something to do with their reincarnated leader.
Axel: Basically says that if he told anyone his wish it would not come true. I don't remember if it was ever revealed.
SweetTooth : claims that he didn't know anything about the wishing well. So he never made a wish... if they have a future Twisted Metal tournament, his wish is obvious.
Mr Grimm: no wish revealed.

Axel's was probably:

About being reunited with his adopted daughter.

Speaking of Axel, here's the behind the scenes on how they made his vehicle.

It took eight days to build.

Nice! Season 2 was surprisingly good.

I just want to say that this show needs more love

It's not the best thing ever, but the people on it are for real on it. And if you're not a fan of the game, it's also fine to watch. It's as cheesy as the game itself
