I think that's a great idea. I think it will succeed. It's a concept that probably couldn't have succeeded in the past, but with the way TV shows are produced and followed now, I think it can.
In years past you probably would see a tv series made and conclude before the movie, or the movies made first and the tv series expand upon that. Having movies and seasons being made during the same time period is new territory for sure.
The show will obviously have to be of a high quality to fit the movies. I'm not sure if they'd want to distribute through HBO, because they want to reach a wider audience.
I'm also not sure The Dark Tower belongs on network TV. Perhaps it will end up on AMC. They are owning dramatic television at the moment.
They just have to do a good job of making their film audience aware of the television show, and vice versa.
