Season 1

The Stand is an American television miniseries based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King and set after a deadly plague kills most of the world's population, after which the remaining survivors split into two groups - one lead by a benevolent elder and the other by a maleficent being - to face each other in a final battle between good and evil.

Broadcast Notes

The Stand is typically broadcast as four 90-minute episodes or eight hour-long episodes. In South Africa it was broadcast as eight weekly episodes on both SABC1 and SCI FI, and as four episodes over consecutive nights on CBS Action.
