Up to episode 5 of The Stand on Amazon. Been a long time since I read the book (one of my favourite King novels) and I don’t remember much about the the original mini series but this seems pretty good so far, decently acted and some rather horrifying effects for old Captain Tripps. I do like how they have mixed up the timelines so it’s not all end of the world apocalypse for the first few episodes and we get some as we are introduced to each character. I honestly haven’t read the book since I was a teen and due to a lot of living between then and now I can’t remember but the all but they seem to be missing a pretty major character what was the Trash Can Mans name?
Maybe a bit depressing for some as well what with watching a series about a pandemic that wipes out 99% of the population in current times but it does make it all the more relatable.
American Gods is back too, first couple of eps are slow but it’s still good even if it has gone a fair bit off book. Looks like Mr World has been recast as Ms World which is a shame as Crispin Glover was very creepy as Mr World.’
