  1. I like The Librarians. Christian Kane has been a favorite of mine since Her Minor Thing.

  2. 11/22/63 is supposed to be an excellent book, glad to hear JJ Abrams has a hand in it. Hopefully it will be good.

  5. I heard the King book was a good one and I already have Hulu, but thanks to Franco being attached to this, I probably won't watch it. I can't get through five minutes of him, let alone a series.

  6. The book was very good, so I'm going to have to get Hulu to watch it.

  7. I loved the book but I'm with Unknown, if Franco is the lead, I'm out. Not even Abrams can make that smarmy tool shine.

  8. Agree @ pink cashmere. The book was excellent. King has a way of making the unbelievable so easily believable.

    And, with you, too @ Seven. Franco is sickening to me. Bad casting call! Will not watch. :(

    1. @Dizzel & Unknown, I just had a thought - what if Franco is cast as Lee Harvey Oswald instead of Jake? Now THAT I'd watch. Book Lee was a complete tool.

      I wonder who they'll cast as Sadie.
