It was announced by CBS a few hours ago that they've ordered a 10 episode mini-series of my favorite novel - The Stand by Stephen King. Since it was first published in 1978, it was adapted into a four episode television mini-series on ABC in 1994 and a Marvel Comics series that was published from 2008 to 2012. The newest adaptation will be written by Josh Boone and Ben Cavell and will air exclusively on the CBS All Access streaming service.
