Many may not have seen The Stand but The Last Ship was aired this summer on TNT (and was picked up)
THE STAND (Stephen King) or THE LAST SHIP (NEW TNT SHOW)

I mentioned on another thread that I have seen several episodes of The Last Ship. I wanted to love it but for some reason I'm not exactly sure of, I don't. The movie Outbreak starring Dustin Hoffman was very good IMO.

I read The Stand back in the day. I was sick with the flu at the time, a really, really bad flu, and the book happened to be next to me, so I started reading it. It was a very surreal experience, my symptoms were exactly the same as everyone in the story. I was kind of delirious, I was sure I would die just like everyone in the book, but I didn't care as I felt so bad that death seemed preferable.
The miniseries was good also.

I highly recommend Contagion if you haven't watched it. It's not quite as entertaining as Outbreak, but more cerebral and realistic.

Keyer, I saw Contagion as well. I fully agree with your accessment. The entertainment factor made me lean toward Outbreak.
