The biggest problem with reading the book before watching the series is knowing the story and having a clear view of the story and the characters beforehand.

Being a fan of Kings books and characters, I'm well versed with the way he portrays the characters.

I had really high hopes for the tv series as the reviews and the overall review score was pretty high.

After watching the first 2 episodes I felt pretty convinced the show would continue to deliver on Kings wonderful story, but no!

After 5 episodes and a whole lot of bad language on my part it was enough!

So many things are of and poorly portrayed, I know it's a interpretation of the book but man, so poorly portrayed characters and bad dialogue, the overall direction is just awful to see!

This could have been the best interpretation of a King story but it's a total mess!

A clear warning to everyone who have read the book. Don't watch this, just read another S. King book instead.

Bateman is wonderful, but that's it!!
