But sitting right there at the absolute number one spot on the charts is, well, it's a ghost from 1997.
speaker_7HOST
1:36
You are looking at a brand new serialized television adaptation of John Grisham's The Rainmaker.
speaker_8HOST
1:42
Which is just a profound subversion of how we expect modern streaming ecosystems to operate today.
speaker_7HOST
1:48
Yeah, it really is.
speaker_8HOST
3:11
My goal today is to help you look past those top 10 metrics.
speaker_8HOST
3:14
We need to dissect the structural tissue of this show.
speaker_8HOST
3:17
Why does the fundamental narrative engine of The Rainmaker, which, let's be honest, was undeniably perfected in the 1990s, not just survive this transition to 2026, but actively thrive in a medium it was never originally designed for?
speaker_7HOST
3:32
Well, to answer that, I think we have to establish the sheer weight of the legacy this new show is carrying.
Michael James BensonHOST
72:05
Yeah, exactly.
Maranda MobleyHOST
72:06
Francis Ford Coppola claims that Mary Shelley's name was included in the title because he has a tradition of putting the author's names in titles of his movies that are adapted from novels, such as Mario Pozzo's The Godfather, Dracula, and John Grisham's The Rainmaker.
Maranda MobleyHOST
72:20
Bram Stoker.
Maranda MobleyHOST
72:21
Others have claimed, however, that Shelley's name was included in the title to avoid legal action from Universal Studios, who claim to own the rights to the simple title Frankenstein.
Gary NolanHOST
3:11
If you get a chance, watch it.
Gary NolanHOST
3:12
There's another one that I caught, and this one my wife asked me about, and we looked it up, called The Rainmaker.
Gary NolanHOST
3:21
The Rainmaker, and again, I wish I could tell you where we found it.
Gary NolanHOST
3:25
I think it was on Paramount Plus as well.
Gary NolanHOST
3:29
But it looks to be a pretty good show.
Gary NolanHOST
3:34
There's already one season in the can, and they're into their second season now.
Gary NolanHOST
3:41
And we watched all of the Rainmaker first season last week.
Gary NolanHOST
3:49
We just got hooked on it.
JJ GordonHOST
12:22
I'll make it real quick.
JJ GordonHOST
