2012: The Series?

roland_emmerichSo chances are you’re still coming down from the adrenaline high that was 2012, and you’re wondering what could ever make your heart race so again.  Well, I’ve got a sweet chunk of news here that will at least boggle your mind if not necessarily get your adrenaline firing.

Roland Emmerich is making noises that say that he’s looking to take 2012 to the small screen…to do 2013.

It’s not exactly a huge spoiler to let you know that, in fact, some people did survive the massive apocalypse that was 2012, and as such, Emmerich’s plan is to put these people into a series about the adventures of refounding the world.

Actually, this isn’t a terrible idea.  I personally hope for an episode where some of the actual survivors of, say, America, who couldn’t buy their way out, come back, find that asshole Anheiser who figured that four hundred thousand was good enough, and show him in excruciating detail the error of his ways.

But since this would probably be on basic cable, if not network outright, such things will likely not happen.  The idea, however, is fun enough if a little on the weird side.
