HBO's The Outsider started off as a really interesting, exciting re-invention of Dracula, but was ultimately weighed down by it's tortoise-like pace after the 2nd episode. With an excellent cast, the mini-series would have been better if edited down to 7 episodes instead of dragging out repeated conversations, character thought processes and the continual use of car driving scenes to forward momentum. The finale was equally disappointing and reminded me of how I felt after watching the original mini-series of IT.
