Started watching it with my wife a few weeks ago on Amazon. I never was a Stephen King fan. Once I went to a Ramones concert in some junior college
gymnasium in the 90's and they played Pet Cemetery. They only played a few songs and left because nobody wash mosh pitting or getting into it. I think
that was the last song before they quit. Oh, and there was that Stand mini-series. I watched like two episodes. Boring.
This Outsider show though is outstanding. Good acting and a story that is unpredictable. Jason Bateman is directing it so maybe that has something to
do with the quality. He was always a good actor. Even as a child actor he was good. He had his own show as a child for a little while but the time
slot he got sucked and it could not get momentum.
I don't even think the show is the original King story. Pretty sure it's loosely based off it. I read a summary of the original but it's nothing like
the Amazon series.
Only thing that annoys me, can't binge watch it. They have 4 episodes and release a new one a week. Must be some new marketing strategy. Still haven't
found an explanation on why they are taking this approach. Regardless, I highly recommend checking it out. I seldom comment on shows but this one is
good.
