    11.23.63. The Stephen King story using time travel to prevent the assassination of JFK. Pretty good story, but the MCM furnishings, cloths, and cars are MCM eye candy. I think a lot of it was done with computer generated graphics, but it's not terribly obvious.

    Ooh, looks like that one is on Netflix! Will have to watch it. I agree with many folks that it was one of Mr. King's best novels.

    Finished 2025 with Rooftop Prince. A Joseon era crown prince investigates the murder of his wife when he was attacked. He and three trusted associates suddenly find themselves in 2012 Seoul. The prince is mistaken for the missing grandson of a home shopping magnate, he learns that court politics and modern business have a lot in common.

    Image a time travel Korean drama written by a Mexican telenovela writer. This is the best description of it.

    one of my friends keeps telling me I should watch some Korean dramas, but I haven’t got around to that, it’s just not appealing. I suppose I’m missing out.

    Rogar, we started watching 11.23.63 and my husband really likes it. I like the visuals a lot, but it's pretty scary/disturbing and gave me nightmares.

    Sounds good. I'm OK with Stephen King-induced nightmares in my mind while I'm asleep. It's the Donald-induced waking daymares from seeing news articles, etc. that I object to these days.

    I’m hating everything I watch which is one indication I am watching way too much stuff.

    I think the only excellent NEW production I saw was about a year ago, the British limited series “Adolescence.” It cleaned up at the Golden Globes and deservedly so. Oh, now I remember, within the past year I have watch a couple of other excellent British dramas that are a few years old. But the new stuff is drek.

    well, I can always go back and watch Deadwood again, and then The Wire. I have seen these excellent productions only once.

    Yes, that means you should be reading instead!
