Based on a story by Stephen King, THE MIST has been re-imagined for television by Executive Producer and Writer Christian Torpe and produced for Spike by TWC-Dimension Television.

As they deal with the fallout an eerie mist rolls in, suddenly cutting them off from the rest of the world, and in some cases, each other. Family, friends and adversaries become strange bedfellows, battling the mysterious mist and its threats, fighting to maintain morality and sanity as the rules of society break down. THE MIST stars Morgan Spector, Alyssa Sutherland, Gus Birney, Danica Curcic, Okezie Morro, Luke Cosgrove, Darren Pettie, Russell Posner, Dan Butler, Isiah Washington, Jr. and Frances Conroy.

So far this is sort of terrible. The acting is pretty bad. But I am only 10 mins in, so it could get better. Can't really get worse. :lol:

I may have to keep watching this because it is so bad. Sort of like Under the Dome. It is comically bad.
It is safe to say this makes the movie look like an AFI top 50 movie of all time. |

Episodes 2 and 3 are on the Spike app. I just finished them, and it doesn't get any better. Very dull and disappointing!

Watched 1-3... A lot different than the movie for sure.
I like it though, but the CGI effects are pretty bad... |

Damn... guess I'm deleting this from my DVR.

I thought about watching the premiere but read some really bad reviews. I figured I'd wait to see what the reaction was here before adding another show that I don't really have time to watch. It looks like I won't bother.

My son and I enjoyed it in an MST3K kind of way but I don't think we'll bother with the remaining episodes. Talk about a paint by numbers TV show with a totally predictable plot -- we were practically saying the exact lines that came out of their mouths mere seconds later. Was this written, directed, and acted by robots?

This was so bad. And I'm a big fan of the novella and Darabont movie. Just awful.

I haven't watched it yet, but come on guys ... it's on Spike. What were we expecting?

This kind of garbage really makes me angry. Every character is immediately horrible. I want them all to die NOW. Stephen King is clearly cashing every paycheck he can before he dies. Just embarrassing. The extras should've been the leads. This should've been cancelled at the table read.

It was terrible but not fair to compare it to Under the Done. That was fucking ridiculous.

It's definitely not as nice as the movie (which I really enjoyed), but it's not oh so terrible. It was also weird re-watching that movie a year ago and realizing almost all of The Walking Dead cast members were in it. |

Trailer looks interesting so I'll give it a shot.

Show is ok. People do stupid things. Things happen for reasons. I'll probably keep watching but it isn't a must watch. Much better than Under the Dome but so is my poo. The main focus is the horrible people. The Mist is just a reason to force the people to deal with each other so far.
The worse part so far is that the mist doesn't seem to follow any rules. This makes the mist rather boring and it is a sign of weak writing. The best thing is the creative way they have killed people. Some problematic things are people might not like how rape and being gay is handled in the show. Anyway I would say if you liked the trailer give it a shot. |

Most of his adaptations have been piss-poor.
