I enjoyed the show. I haven’t read the book (Stephen King is a bit tangent-y for my taste), so I can’t speak to its accuracy as an adaptation, but I found it well-done. I think James Franco is one of the more under-rated actors of his caliber.
I enjoyed it, and I, too, found Franco’s performance quite good. The portrayal of Lee Harvey Oswald was well done. There were some interesting twists with the time-travel component.
I never watch US shows, not a full season anyway & I thought I would hate this, but it was very good viewing all the way through.
One question though, why the fuck would the dude have a clothes pin on his dick? :D
My thought was he was raised by uber-religious parents that shamed him for getting erections, and put a clothespin on him in order to suppress them. Kind of the boy version of Carrie.
No idea which channel broadcast it over the pond, it was on the Fox channel here, 8 episodes just finished this monday. I still have them on download, will probably see them again back to back sometime soon, like I said, loved it
