I just finished watching this for the first time last night. I don't know who I'd cast for Flagg, but I really couldn't stand Jamey Sheridan. Not sure what it was about him that I didn't like, but

Lets face it, other than Gary Sinise it wasn't exactly an all star cast but I thought Molly did a respectable job as Fran. What it did for me was put a face to the characters when I read the book again.

Yesterday I was thinking about this and Rachel McAdams came to my mind but just like you I was wondering about the age factor. I also though about Emma Stone.

Aww, I like her. Attachment 16647

see, she's just like us, she wants senpai to notice her.

but in all seriousness, Franny was supposed to have way more pizzazz. =_= I wasn't too pleased.

I agree, Molly Ringwald was wronly cast for this role....Most of the casting was wrong for me with the exception of Adam Storke as Larry Underwood and Matt Frewer as Trashy.
I can see Jennifer Lawrence in this role, ad Bradley Cooper as Larry Underwood. Jonah Hill as Harold Lauder??

I am so glad to see I am not the only one who did not like Molly Ringwald cast as Fran. She is not Fran. Too whiney.

I really liked most of the rest of the cast. Harold could have been cast better but he wasn't too horrible.

Interesting, I thought Jamey Sheridan was a good Flagg. Ringwald eh...no and wasn't Harold Lauder suppose to be heavy and wear his hair long? I really like Gary Sinise, but I thought Stu Redman should have been a little younger.

Great job casting the trash can man, decent job on Julie Lawry, Nadine Cross, Nick and Tom. The rest I don't really remember.

I thought Frannie had long blonde hair? I imagined her a bit like Gweneth Paltrow!

I thought Larry Stu and Nadine were perfect - Tom and Nick also - all in all it was a good series and stayed as true as possible to the book (apart from a few exceptions!)

Frannie was terrible casting!

Flagg - hmmmmmmmm I liked him at the time but thinking back I think I would have had Clint Eastwood in the Good the Bad and the Ugly lol

[not_nadine]

I'm pretty sure Fran had Auburn or Chestnut hair?
