Yeah, they're airing all 4 episodes of the original mini-series back to back today. I read the book years ago and saw this when it aired originally...in fact, I own it on DVD.

Oh..never saw it. I thought they were talking about a moon documentary or something. I'm an idiot

I just thought scifi was being lazy and running the same movie over and over.

Nice, maybe I'll fire up the DVR. I actually just bought the book, I read it back in jr high some time, saw it at a used book store for $1. In pretty good shape too :thumpsup;

I bought 'The Taking' a few years ago and I read about 3/4 of it but it was just horrible...never bothered to finish reading it because it was so fucking weak. :thumbsdown:

stephen king makes me so sad.

he wrote so many great novels, including the stand, but the last 4 dark tower books were such colossal pieces of shit they almost retroactively invalidate everything that came before them and brought SK to that point.
