The Spies Who Loathe Me - Why Bond is a Franchise Target!

The Spies Who Loathe Me - Why Bond is a Franchise Target!

Join Tom and Dan as they investigate why Bond still tops Mission: Impossible, Bourne and what about George Smiley.

Every other spy movie franchise loathes and despises James Bond 007 – and the EON Productions 50+ years of success. Why?

Because no other franchise, let alone spy movie franchise, has survived and thrived for over 50 years on the big screen, in books and novelizations. Bond is Big – and it may always remain big if EON Productions continues to do the right things – some things more right than others, but they have pretty much done the right things for 50 years.

But is there a challenger?!
