TV Weekend; A Plague and Its Effects - The New York Times

TV Weekend; A Plague and Its Effects - The New York TimesStephen King, master of supernatural shtick and Armageddon horrors, is recklessly flirting with terminal bloat. After an extraordinary string of best sellers and assorted movies based on his stories, the writer is obviously a power broker. Whatever Stephen wants, Stephen gets. This time around, with his own script, he gets "Stephen King's 'The Stand,' " a television production on ABC that over four nights, beginning on Sunday and skipping Tuesday, runs for eight hours. Well, O.K., six and a half minus commercials.

Taking a cue from Legionnaire's disease, Mr. King first wrote "The Stand," a story about a planet-destroying super flu, in the mid-1970's. Later, charging that the publisher "arbitrarily cut" his manuscript, he did an unabridged edition, adding about 500 pages. That was published in 1988 when, of course, the most prominent of what Mr. King calls "disease vectors" had become AIDS. It now lurks ominously in the interstices of this television mini-series.

" I knew when I auditioned for THE STAND that I was being afforded the opportunity to be a part of not only a classic story but a cult classic film. THE STAND happened about six months after Parker Lewis and people really only had seen me do comedy but everyone on that project believed that I could do something beyond that, and you couldn't ask for more as an actor.
