Good Morning, World

.
Happy Monday morning, fellow Plague survivors -- yes it's true I finally plowed through the remainder of the 1994 miniseries version of The Stand yesterday (as mentioned previously) and yes, it remained terrible through the end. Although the heightened tone of the last half did at least swerve into total camp at times...



... and that helped soften the fall a little. A little. I've still got my fingers toes and such crossed that the new adaptation with Alexander Skarsgard and James Marsden (supposedly) out this fall will right every wrong, aka every thing. Well perhaps I'm harsh -- I didn't mind seeing 1994 Rob Lowe stripped down for absolutely no reason whatsoever, although 1994 Rob Lowe is, uhh...

... not how I pictured the character of Nick Andros in the book. I'm not familiar with the actor Henry Zaga who's playing Nick in the 2020 version; he was on the shows Teen Wolf, 13 Reasons Why, and Looking For Alaska (with Charlie Plummer), none of which I watched. Anybody seen him act? Until we do let's just hit the jump and revel in the 1994 Rob Lowe of it...
