Finished the Audiobook this morning at work. I liked the book better than the 90's miniseries, but I hand it to the miniseries, it delivered well enough as any network television station would allow. I enjoy how Randal Flagg never knows exactly what it is at first. The book definitely made me think about in a way the series didnt, which dreams I would have and where I would have been drawn. Gary Sinese was a good cast for Stu. The mini series was missing a lot of things, but more perplexing is they allude to it, but my guess is the network censors were like. You can't do that on television. Im guessing the reason Randal Flagg doesnt throw Nadine off the balcony was two fold: One wanting to give her a "redemption" somehow(i personally dont see how this accomplishes it, but I see how someone could think that.) and second: To make Randal Flagg seem less childish, which...imo its pretty central to his character. The crawling chaos that is Flagg must always be in some stage of adolescence because of the nature of Nyarlanthotep as a being and herald of transition. His are the horror stories that keep Azathoth slumbering and were it ever to wake, it would atomize all life so idk I guess they just wanted to make it less cosmic horror and more plain and simple devil for the tv show. Jamey Sheridan was on point though, and King wrote Flagg in a way...was a bit more relatable than I might have liked. But maybe that's the point. Definitely cinched this years halloween costume. I've pretty much got everything but the buttons already. Smiley Smile and How's your bacon. Ralph, Glen, and Larry were also very relatable. Also I get the feeling Steven King feels bad about Cujo because Kojack and Radar(From Fairy Tale) actually make me want to get a dog.
