Catching up on The Stand and woooow they truncated Nick's story a whole bunch. Damn.

The stuff this adaptation considers extraneous is baffling.

The acting is great. Cinematography, effects, direction, top notch.

But the script is just killing me.
9/10 of Nick's story so far was cut. Not exaggerating.

No jail, no sherriff, no sheriff's wife, no inmates. Pfft. Gone.

... no Sue, no Lucy. Most of the Ad Hoc committee is missing.

The role of Ray (Ralph) has been scaled back a ton.

What is going on here?
My gut tells me we're not going to see Dayna or the Judge, either. :/
Yup, no Lucy. Which means a really, really important part of Nadine's character arc is missing.

Fuuuck this is annoying.
Wait.

Did they ... I think they merged the characters of Ralph and Dayna.

Whaaaat the hell.
Nope, nope, Ralph (Ray) and Dayna are separate.

But we don't get a lot with Dayna.
Okay, I was wrong, yup. The Judge is in here too.

I have documented this in many threads which I will post here just to annoy everyone.
