Maybe our most packed show ever! We'll start off by jumping into the ring with the new Starz series, Heels! Joining us to talk about the series are Michael Waldron (Exec. Producer/Creator), Mike O'Malley (Showrunner), Alison Luff (Staci Spade) and Kelli Berglund (Crystal Tyler). They'll talk about the show's roots in pro wrestling, the family drama behind it and how the women are very much at center stage in this story as well. WATCH HEELS BEGINNING SUNDAY AT 9PM ON STARZ!
Next we turn our attention to hitting the big time with the Netflix limited series, Brand New Cherry Flavor. Hear from Nick Antosca and Lenore Zion (Exec. Producers, Writers, Showrunners) about adapting this mind bending story, why Rosa Salazar was perfect as Lisa Nova and what is up with those kittens! WATCH BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR, NOW STREAMING ON NETFLIX!
