Co-created by executive producers Evan Husney and Jason Eisener, Dark Side of the Ring began airing in 2019, the television series has enjoyed four seasons and already has 40 episodes under its belt covering some of the most heartbreaking and peculiar stories from the often bewildering business of make believe.
