Shea and His Langoliers

Anybody else remember this creepy made for TV movie based on a Steven King novel and starring the guy who played Balki on “Perfect Strangers?” Bonus points if you do! Small slate today but there’s a half dozen solid plays and I’m sending them out to everyone since it’s only three matchups.

Let’s dive into the plays for Thursday, August 7th. Reminder SIGN UP FOR PREMIUM (if ya ain’t already) to get the full list.

Quick note on the Target Markets section: These are the markets I’m going to be line/promo shopping for when the markets open up. Sometimes I will avoid them if they’re too juicy or the odds are just garbage (-130 and worse). Unit recommendation is a general guideline, but could change based on value.
