]]> Podcastica jason@podcastica.com Intro to Lanterns Yes, this show is about members of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic peacekeeping force whose members wear rings that give them powers (and we love that). But there’s a lot more about this series that has us intrigued. Like, why is it also apparently a gritty murder mystery set in rural Nebraska? And what does it mean that HBO, the king of prestige TV, picked it up, with three legendary writers at the helm: Chris Mundy (Ozark), Damon Lindelof (LOST), and Tom King (The Vision)? That’s more than enough to have us—Jason, Kirk, and Jim—super excited for Lanterns. Join us for a spoiler-lite introduction to the series, followed by a more detailed dive into the trailer that recently debuted at Comic-Con. Mentioned: EW interviews Lanterns showrunner Chris Mundy: https://ew.com/lanterns-dc-space-cops-drama-dueling-timelines-exclusive-11971022  Next up on Casting Light: The Lanterns series premiere, on HBO Sunday, August 16!

More TV talk Enjoying Casting Light? I also host Wax Episodic: Obsessive TV Talk with Jason Cabassi, where we cover the TV shows we’re most excited about. Current and upcoming coverage includes Pluribus, Severance, Alien: Earth, Fallout, Welcome to Derry, and more. Each of those shows also has, or will soon have, its own dedicated podcast, but if you’d rather follow all my current TV obsessions in one place, just search for Wax Episodic wherever you get your podcasts.
