This will only be good on HBO, Showtime or FX, any one that doesn't care about R ratings.

It is a great book and King is always interpreted better on the small screen. Let's hope they don't eff this up!

This was an excellent book, I was hoping for a feature film, but I can live with a TV series if they do it right.
