Asmodee Entertainment Announce Ticket To Ride TV Series
July 3, 2019 by cassn
Last year, the corporate Cthulu that is Asmodee grew yet another tentacle with the creation of Asmodee Entertainment, a facet of the larger Great Old gaming giant devoted to "extend Asmodee's leading intellectual properties into TV/film, book and comics publishing, location based-entertainment, and consumer products, working in parallel with sister platforms Asmodee Boardgames and Asmodee Digital."
Well now, this latest succubus feeler has risen from the deep, clutching within it's grasp Alan R. Moon's classic board game Ticket to Ride, which will be transformed into a brand new TV show where opposing teams will complete epic challenges and travel the world, attempting to rack up the greatest amount of miles in a winner-takes-all series.
Asmodee Entertainment will be collaborating with Propagate for the series, the studio behind such content as Haunted, Lore, and...Vivica's Black Magic, apparently. Asmodee's president Stéphane Carville has said of the collaboration: Asmodee Entertainment will develop new and exciting entertainment experiences based on the vibrant universes of our popular games. We are delighted to bring one of our most iconic properties to life with the help of our visionary partners at Propagate. We look forward to future collaborations.
Personally, I can't help but feel a little dismayed by this announcement, and I fail to see anything more than a tedious train-themed link between the board game and this potential plot of the TV series. Roll on a Mansions of Madness TV series instead, and let the will of Cthulu loose on our screens. All hail Asmodee...ahem. I mean, Azathoth.

I agree. I think this is just a link between something of the amazIng race tv show set in a train station ….or I recall a road movie from Sweden or Finland about a race between train schedules (actually for a road movie it was pretty good ).
I know you want to expand but too many movies are based on video games…is this the next thing, I hope not.
oh..still haven’t seen game of thrones but i hear tbe game is avtually pretty good..a song of ice and fire miniatures game
More trains on TV normally means I get excited, this not so much.
This is the most generic and unnessecary license in the history of boring.
LMAO
That just might be the most boring tv show pitch I have ever heard. The most exciting race in this show will be if it makes it past season one (spoiler: it probably won’t).
Ready, set, GO!
…Queue in line for tickets for 20 minutes. Miss next train. Wait 35 minutes. Get told next train is delayed an hour….
What a rollercoaster of emotions!
or buy the tickets on-line …
arrive at the station to discover that your phone won’t let them scan and you’ve forgotten to print them.
