On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy was killed, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? Take a journey to find out in the genre-busting 11.22.63. Based upon the bestselling novel written by King and starring a terrific ensemble cast embodying deeply complex characters, 11.22.63 hurtles viewers deep into the unpredictable darkness of the American dream. James Franco stars as Jake Epping, a high school teacher at a loss with his life, who wants to make a difference and do something meaningful. Encouraged by his ailing friend (Chris Cooper), Jake journeys back in time to prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The story transports audiences into the world of 1960s Texas as Jake explores the multiple mysteries surrounding the alleged assassin Lee Harvey Oswald. But Jake's mission faces threats not only from Oswald, but from Sadie, a beautiful librarian he falls in love with, and from the Past itself... which doesn't want to be changed. And if the Past doesn't want to be changed, it will push back - often violently. With something for everyone, this edge-of-your seat mystery offers an epic and emotional thrill ride unlike any other.

The Rabbit Hole (2016) (E01) 

English Sufficiently true to the original, but still pleasantly chilling in places. The creators added a couple of interesting sidetracks and cast the past in the role of the villain. MacDonald has control and, despite my fears, Franco fits in well. And Sarah Gadon is a fox and sweet at the same time. i look forward to the coming episodes and keep my fingers crossed. An excellent start. ()

Other Voices, Other Rooms (2016) (E03) 

English It’s slowly beginning to deviate from the source material. The introduction to Sadie, who is too modern, is disappointing. Those who haven't read the novel probably won't have a problem with it. ()
