The first episode was short but had just enough of a story line to make me want to see more. I look forward to the book. Bought a copy with the DVD from Amazon yesterday.

Life is a garden...dig it!
Its about the same length as the advert for Mastercard
I will have to get the set too.
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
I watched the first episode this morning. I liked it, but it was way too short. 2 minute video, but 30 seconds are the opening and closing credits. Only 90 seconds of story.

I wonder if all the episodes are going to be this short. It was enough to make me want more but I hope that some of them are longer.
Yep 25 episodes at 2 minutes each - one 50 minute video episode! :-)
I too ordered the book with DVD from Amazon for 34% off the list price!

Viewed episode two today. I almost wonder if it's better to wait till there are 5 or more episodes to view.
Highly interesting though.
I'm waiting until the DVD comes out (in the collector's edition) to watch the whole thing. I'll probably read the story itself before I watch it, too.

yep john,i was thinking the same.ill hold off and do it in one hit. i will probably enjoy it more that way getting a continious run-just like a mini movie.
I kind of like the suspense factor, myself. It's like reading The Green Mile when it came out in serial form.

I watched the first 5 episodes last night. I'm hooked. It reminded me of the animated Watchmen comic that is available on iTunes, which is pretty cool too, by the way.
I just watched them, it's pretty interesting so far.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
Today's episode was really good! I can not wait to read the story!
Did anybody else think that it could possibly be tower related?

I only found out about N today, I think it's good so far.
OMG I am SOOO sorry! This was meant for Calvin's Corner! I am sorry! Im a FAILURE!
No, you're not. I dropped it in here to be merged with the existing thread. My bad for not PMing you.

NEW YORK – Stephen King is a video star.
The animated video adaptation of the horror master's short story "N." has been viewed more than a 1 million times on the Internet and on mobile phones since its release in July, according to publisher Simon & Schuster. King has well demonstrated his digital appeal before; his e-novella "Riding the Bullet" was a sensation in the early years of the Internet.
"Stephen King has once again lured his readers to try a new way to enjoy a story," Susan Moldow, executive vice president and publisher of Scribner, a division of Simon & Schuster, said Thursday in a statement.
The print version of King's short story, in which a psychiatrist fatally absorbs the madness of one of his patients, is included in the collection "Just After Sunset," released this week.
