Tune in as Michael and Michael dive right into this juiciest of topics.

When you hear the phrase “squandered premise,” a few things leap right into your mind — ‘The Walking Dead’, ‘True Blood’, Jay-Z’s god-awful mash-up albums and every ‘Jaws’ movie BUT ‘Jaws’. On this podcast, Cracked editors Jack O’Brien, Dan O’Brien and Soren Bowie figure out how all these failures might have succeeded. Maybe ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ would have worked if Tom Hardy had been the Moriarty to Batman’s Holmes, rather than another problem for Bruce Wayne to punch away.
