It is painfully obvious that all the characters in this particular episode going on and on about the dead author is King's idea of what the world will be like when he kicks the bucket.
Look, I probably had read all his books he had out at the time by the late 80s, and a few here and there since, then, so yeah he's not too bad, but jesus h baldheaded christ, the morgue scene was it for me... c'mon man, this whole series has been riveting and I have watched it from start to finish in the last 4 days, and this episode clearly shows some sort of infatuation with how you think the world probably views you. Self aggrandizing narcissism it all I saw in the writing.
Wasn't genuine like I remember, or even like the first two seasons. Maybe the editors put that BS in, but the way he's been acting lately leads me to believe it's sposed to be that way.
Hope the next episode goes back to the pretty damn good show I have been watchin.
