Tv Review. The Stand, series by Stephen King.

I found it tiresome.

But it was a really good retelling of Bible style stories, Daniel I think, that revelations stuff. Huge cataclysmic events, the world is changed , the story is about everyday people and their everyday lives and how special and important they are plus some true believers and supernatural stuff thrown in. There were no "heroes" per se. So for me it was an exercise in writing. I expect for true believin' Americans they would love that stuff.

2 hobbits. The scenery was pretty and it had some nice effects. - .5 hobbits for whoopi. She was for all the boomers who thought she was great in Ghost.

I couldn’t make it through the series. You certainly have patience for bad drama.
