Wow. I never thought i could enjoy this TV show very much. The cast were perfect and believe me, last episode will touch your heart.
A really wonderful series, I loved every minute of it. When I read the plot I was scared I would get confused, but it was just perfect. I wish it wasn't just a mini series
Jake Epping, a high school teacher, travels back in time by a time portal, revealed to him from his friend, Cafe owner Al Templeton, the portal are in the cafe backroom closet, and makes it possible to time travel, but only from the present day and back to the 1960s — specifically, October 21st. Dying of cancer, Al asks Jake to travel back to the 1960s and prevent the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Time travel stories can be a tricky thing, but 11.22.63 sets up the rules clearly and immediately. By the end of the opening episode, viewers should be fairly well acquainted with what Jake needs to do, why Al can't do it anymore, and the steps needed to get there. It all sounds completely ridiculous ("go back in time and stop the assassination of JFK!"), but 11.22.63 finds the right balance in Jake between disbelief and an earnest desire to try it anyway. The time travel isn't the mystery — not yet. Instead, the show pivots immediately into a glossy 1960s thriller, peppered with some of King's trademark horror.
I only bad thing to say about this series are that I want more I did not want it to end, it is simply a fantastic series.

Now that's a series with superb acting on top of a very original story and script!
The intricacies are very well woven and as soon as the first 15 minutes, viewers are immersed in its world. The script does not disappoint a bit and the mood is awesomely and believably set with the bright cinematography.
The above being said, one of the decisive weight in its favor and deserved success is the presence and acting of Sarah Gadon, whose mesmerizing beauty and dazzling smile shine out and utmostly captivate.
A somewhat underrated and little known limited series, which comes highly recommended and leaves its viewers satisfied and in awe.

Damn good miniseries. The story is very intriguing had you hooked on the first episode. The worst thing about it is James Franco. Not the character just the actor but he did a pretty good job. Just not a fan of him. I liked the book but the mini series was great. It give me a different outlook on the book. If you're looking for a good storyline interesting characters this is the miniseries you would like to watch.
