I love this book and Alexander Skarsgard. Excited to see this!

I'm excited for it.

Holy shit, I am so excited for this! Been looking forward to this for a while, even despite the current situation, and can't wait for this new coda that he's written.

This teaser is meh, but most teasers are.

Idk how I feel about this. I loved the miniseries, but there’s definitely room to improve. I’m not sold on the cast, and I wish we could get this on a streaming platform where it wouldn’t need to be watered down.

I loved Gary as Stu but hated Molly as Fran. The rest of the cast was good though and I will always picture Ray Walston as Glen and so it's so hard for me to see Greg Kinnear who I think of as too young for the role even though he isn't as Glen.

Some of the casting choices in the miniseries were off, but some were perfect. I don’t think anyone will ever be Stu to me besides Gary Sinise, and I think my enjoyment of this new series will suffer because of that.

Oh they totally were, I have some other qualms with the miniseries as a whole and I am glad they are keeping Nadine and Rita separate this time though. I really want to know what year they are going to set it in. I would have loved to have seen it updated for current times but I see no cell phones in this teaser and the clothes don't give it away. I don't know.

Hate that this is on the CBS All Access. I really want to watch it but I do not see myself subscribing to that.
