    I don’t think it needed three seasons. The entire extended Lord of the Rings film trilogy is twelve hours. Twelve could have done The Stand justice.

    People point to American Gods but that show has apparently become a mess that is barely following the book.

    Multiple seasons would have been nice, and would probably be better so that they could fully flesh out the characters. But if limited to just one I think they could have also done it way better than what we got. I think they spent so much time on the end that they sacrificed building up the characters, so unless you're familiar with the work you don't really know them, and even then I had zero connection to any of them. That was the biggest thing missing for me.

    CBS All Access is basically just a Skull and Crossbones for me now. I shudder to think what they're going to do to poor Frasier Crane.

    It was the best of the lot.
    Finished watching all episodes the other night. I'm still in the minority because I quite liked it.

    Bumping an old thread but I'm just now finally getting around to watching this. Just finished Episode 6 last night. I agree with what a lot of other people have already said. The non-linear story-telling has made this very difficult to watch. And this is coming from someone that has read the book at least 3 times and watched the original mini-series more than once.

    Often it takes me a few seconds to realize they did time jump. I can't imagine someone that's isn't familiar with the source material keeping up at all.

    I gave up after 1 episode. The time jump

    Just ruined the whole thing for me.
    I was going to suggest this exact same thing.

    EDIT: Someone did it.
