Stellan Skarsgard

IIRC he's Randall Flagg in the new series The Stand coming next year.

You're thinking Alexander Skarsgard, Stellan Skarsgard's son. He (Alexander) is currently in my neck of the woods filming for The Stand right now

roentgens, it's very distracting watching this show.

Because a roentgen, sounds like a measurement you would be exposed to in willy wonka's chocolate factory.

A quip in episode 5 I laughed at.

"Why worry about something that isn't going to happen"

"Ohh, that's just perfect, we should put that on our money."

How perfect of a response to a communist henchman.

I watched that about five months ago, it was pretty good. I wonder if there is any accuracy to the show or is it all basically fiction?

Ill have to check that out. Hbo has alot of good stuff. Watchmen, silicon valley, game of thrones, boardwalk empire and probably more i forgot about.

its pretty accurate, the different stages and results and how it was handled.
I'm sure there's some creativity to make it gripping but the basics - miners, firefighters, bio-robots, animal exterminators, scuba divers.. .that all happened. The characters are real, except for the lady who is representative of a larger group...

One of the greatest TV shows created... up their with Soprano's, Seinfeld, Simpsons..

A lot of Skarsgard's around these days. Hard to keep track of them all. Anyway, I was close.

Pretty damn talented family either way

I've only seen Bill in Castle Rock and he was good in that. Creepy story. I need to check out season two of that now that I''m a thinking about it.
