I'm not sure what I just watched but it failed to keep my attention, and didn't draw me into the story. It's confusing, yet predictable. Gore for the sake of gore. Jumpscares that barely register a reaction. The main scares come from subpar writing, a plot that has yet to make sense and knowing I can't get back the 54 minutes of my life thar I spent watching this. So far, it's just a lot of rehashing from the book. It's the second coming of the same old thing.
I'll watch the next episode but my expectations have hit rock bottom and are starting to dig.

UPDATE after episode 3 : They have reached rock bottom and continue to dig. So many plot holes and contradictions. Written by confused minds with zero cares about Star Wars lore. Stop trying to push personal and political agendas where they don't belong. Nearly 200 million spent on a show that would still be overbudget at 10 percent of the cost all to bring one person's AU fanfic to the screen.

I've been a long time fan (30 years) of Stephen King. I've enjoyed most of what he's written until recently. Only halfway through the book. It's slow going so far. I find myself skimming pages because stuff is just too drawn out or repetitive. The biggest disappointment... the politics. Inserting personal politics into a story that adds zero value is a bad choice. I read books to escape, not be reminded of the current political mess. Mr. King, please stop using your platform to show the world Trump and MAGA have been living rent free in your mind for while. I like the other part of your mind that crafts chilling and suspenseful tales. Might finish the book eventually, but this is one book I don't mind putting down.
