More than just the first episode is based on the movie/book. The whole series is. You know the senator Stillson character in the series. And how Johnny is seeing visions of the world ending when he touches him? That is the same Stillson from the movie, that he has to kill and also sacrifice his own life, to save the world. It'll be interesting to see how they handle it on TV. Will the star ultimately die in the show just like in the movie?
Man I sound like a TV geek. Time for bed.
