Season 1 Review: A brilliant premise, an excellent cast and first-rate production values will make viewers truly feel like they're going on an incredibly journey in 1960. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Pretty much all of the success in 11.22.63 comes from Franco being able to take the concept from bizarre to believable, with a major assist from Cooper, who combines with Franco in the early episodes (and flashbacks) to give this series its much-needed dramatic believability.

Season 1 Review: A capable adaptation of Mr. King’s 2011 best seller, appealing enough to snag a general audience and yet different enough from the book to give hard-core King fans plenty to grouse about. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Eight episodes, here, is too many; the series goes down several blind alleys before it gets to Dealey Plaza. But its best moments thrum with tension, as when the past rebels against our hero, trying to repel him. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The resulting eight-part miniseries is an uneven affair, at times feeling as if it’s meandering through history en route to its frantic closing kick--a “Twilight Zone” episode, stretched and kneaded to wring more out of it, while making up the rules as it goes along.

Bu diziye başladığımda biraz ön yargılı yaklaştım fakat sonrasında gördüm ki dizi gerçekten çok güzel. Dizi başlarda ağırdan alıyor olaylar biraz yavaş ilerliyor fakat sonlara doğru bu tempo hızlanıyor. Her bölüm ayrı bir duygu buhranına sokuyor. Açıkçası tek kelime ile mükemmel.Bu diziye başladığımda biraz ön yargılı yaklaştım fakat sonrasında gördüm ki dizi gerçekten çok güzel.

This series crushed my soul. When it ended I was stunned and overwhelmed. In a way I wasn’t expecting and rarely feel from shows or movies. The acting is excellent.

When it ended I was stunned and overwhelmed. In a way I wasn’t expecting and rarely feel from shows or movies. The acting is excellent. The story moves in unexpected yet organic directions. It becomes surprisingly visceral and intense. I was extremely involved in the character’s plights. It was a true joy and pleasure to watch. Even when some scenes made it difficult to do so. The world was immersive and rich. At times dreamlike. James Franco anchors the story and carries you through it with him. Sarah Gadon who plays Sadie was amazing, and her and Franco’s chemistry was palpable. Everyone in it was phenomenal and the casting was outstanding. It wasn’t what I’d expected when reading the log-line, and offered surprises through to the end. Highly recommended.… Expand

A good series that perfectly reflects the epic of the 1960s. James Franco played perfectly, despite the fact that even at the beginning of the series you realize that the main character will not be able to change anything, it is interesting to follow the action.
