March 22, 2021 - ... The Langoliers started out so compelling and then ended so spectacularly badly. It's the first time I really ever got mad at a plot. I watched it when it aired as a miniseries.

August 4, 2017 - Boy, let me tell you, flying on a private jet really is all it's cracked up to be. Have you ever wished a flight would be longer? Yeah, me neither... until we got on that jet. A short hop and a skip across state lines and we landed in Bangor and headed to our first stop, Dysart's truck stop, which served as the inspiration for King's short story Trucks and later his first and only directorial attempt, the ill-fated Maximum Overdrive.

On a cross-country, redeye flight from Los Angeles to Boston, ten passengers awaken in Bangor, Maine, to find that the crew and most of their fellow passengers have disappeared.

It’s at this point that the crazy guy (a well-written example of the Insane Psycho, a staple Stephen King character) strikes, and also that the heroes get their first glimpse of the rapidly-approaching, all-consuming langoliers.
