About this listen
How do you create a franchise in a sub-genre that doesn't emphasize arcs or theme? Our hosts take a look at a cold-case file that's slated to be re-opened later this year, when they investigate the Naked Gun franchise. They examine its origins as a short-lived, failed TV series, and piece together what was different about the feature film that made it succeed. They discuss ways in which its two sequels could potentially continue or establish plots that would make an audience care. They attempt to honor Leslie Nielsen's legacy and on-screen character, but find out just how difficult implementing the franchise formula is when trying to answer the "why now" question after 30 years and with no returning cast. They then wrap things up by applying the lessons learned to a few other failed TV shows, but not before they make their own pitches for The Naked Gun 4!
