Just watched that over the last couple days. Saw it mentioned in the chatbox and DL'd it. It was pretty good.

Does Firefly count? hehehe

The Stand is excellent, but I also like Tin Man & ArchAngel (starring Daniel Craig). Incidentally, all three are available for streaming on NetFlix.

I liked it a lot actually. A lot better than most of theScifi/syfy B movies that they pump out.
I definitely should have let it last longer than I did to take up these 3 weeks, but that didn't happen.

WOW!

Someone else who loved the series! I bought it on DVD. I have no idea why it never became a series! It would have been so great. Everyone has moved onto other projects now--or grown up. *Sigh*

It was such a complete world--well imagined and the character actors were sorta 3D. What do you think the event was?

Not quite. The producers are publishing a comic series based on the miniseries sometime this year.

I also have to say, the Lost Room was great. I saw it mentioned in the thread about TV shows, I believe.
Obviously, the Walking Dead was great too. The ending kinda sucked though.

I'm glad so many like/love the lost room I too really wished they would have continued with it, such a great concept.

I'd say that firefly counts since it never went past the first season, but otherwise it would be a tv show.

Pillars of the Earth was preety cool

Was it? I started it a couple of months ago. In the first 15 minutes it differed so much from the book that I had to stop watching it. The acting and scenery/sets looked great. I may have to give it another shot.

Fav mini-series: North and South http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_and_South_(TV_miniseries)
I thought it was great as a kid. Haven't seen it since.

The Stand and Lonesome Dove get honorable mentions.
