spoilers from the Season 1 of "The Stand," including its finale. If you watched all nine episodes of the CBS All Access remake of "The Stand" . . . why? Why did you do that to yourself? This is not a facetious query, I swear. I'm asking because I wanted to understand why you willingly subjected yourself to nine hours of a series that established its predictability and mediocrity by the third episode. You experienced the stupidity of this version's Trashcan Man as interpreted by an actor who really should know better, Ezra Miller. Miller took one of the better-known characters from Stephen King's ginormous novel and transformed him into a slavering, blithering idiot, adding one more thing to despise atop a mountain of mediocrity.
