I’m so in!!

Haven’t even listened yet and I’m already on board. I love this franchise and I LOVE Michael Gross in all of the tremors franchise installments, from the movies to the tv show. (Also the mysterious pilot/movie remake with Kevin Bacon that we may never get to see) Christmas came early this year!
