    @jonsaan You mean as an on-going series, that keeps the basic setup and characters, but diverts from there? That's an interesting though, but I feel like I would be more satisfied by a more direct adaption of the book. Still, I would definitely watch it as a TV series. The Eyes of the Dragon is one of the more overt appearances of Flagg, but he has also popped up elsewhere in varying forms in other King stories :) Having some screen adaption of The Stand, alongside a TV series or movie series of the Dark Tower, could be really epic, especially for a certain scene in Wizard and Glass :)

    I feel like Joshua Jackson could be a good Stu Redman, or even Larry Underwood, but I kind of feel like they should cast a black actor as Stu, to give a bit more diversity to the main cast. For all of its strengths, the book was not very ethnically diverse in cast of plague survivors.
