[@mikebenson9423]

First of all the time schedule. In the book, Jake goes back in 1955 and spent almost 15 years in the past, by travelling 2 times through the rabbit hole. He failed to save the girl in the wood (the one Al tried to save from handicap in the tv show), and failed one time to save Harry's family, he goes back to the futur and try again. The Kennedy's murder is in 8 years, and many things happened. He flee the mob, because of the gambling, we spent many more time in Jodie and of course, Billy is not relevant at all ! Jake is all alone except for saving JFK, he is with Sadie ! anyway, many things are differents and the book is awesome !

Finished the show. Oh my god. Since her first appearance in the show I was like "wow she's really hot." Then in episode 7-8. I was like "oh my god... She's outstandingly beautiful/stunning and angelic" maybe it's the excellent music. Her Texan accent was super good. Plus Franco's performance was amazing. The way he looks at her and shit was so convincing. This show was awesome!!!! That ending was WOOOO!!!

[@kbanghart]

Oh good, a comment thats less than a year old. Lol so what do you think the nature was of the old guy who kept showing up and telling them he shouldn't be there, and then explains the story of his child who was killed? I was thinking that he had also found the closet, but developed a mental illness and therefore couldn't break himself out of it. and why was it written on the staircase of the Texas book depository "You are the Patsy"? And why did the two guys he had killed come back to him in visions as they were running in the street right before the attempted shooting?

[@edwardkumarkenway1875]

@@kbanghart as far as I remember..the first guy made going back his obsession to save his child..and it became so addictive that he lost his mind and couldn't face the consequences of living in present world.

[@Wglass90]

Sarah Gadon has to be one of the most naturally beautiful actresses in recent. Throughout the show you could really feel the connection between her and Franco's character. Just amazing performances overall. The conclusion was very emotional.

[@thesavagefishh]

Wglass90 yes, I hope they somehow put together a season 2

[@Wglass90]

+Sp1r1tZ They won't. If you seen how it ended, then you'd know there won't be a season 2. It would be kinda pointless for him to go back in time knowing that it'll only change the future for the worst each result. The whole point of the time warp was for people to observe things, not change them hence why every time they interfere with past events they get a bunch of obstacles thrown at them.

[@tomt6142]

Season 2??? Are you serious? That would be the most ridiculous thing ever. Did you even watch it?

[@thesavagefishh]

Wglass90 ya, I suppose I just love the character of Jake so much, maybe he could go back in time to prevent something else.

[@Cinemabuff97]

Everything you said, I was thinking the same things before you typed them. I'm glad to see that you, and plenty of other people, including the ones that liked your post, and the people commenting, see that not only is this show terrific, but also that Sarah Gadon is a naturally, and astoninshingly gorgeous actress, and the fact that you genuinely felt like James Franco, and Sarah Gadons' characters were actually in love, whereas you rarely feel that connection with too many romances in shows and movies. They are rare. Don't get me wrong, I mean there a lot of romances in shows and movies that are actually really good, and you buy them as a couple, and see they have chemistry, but in this show, it's more than just really good, and it's a genuine love connection you feel with these two characters who are in love with each other, and that genuine romance with a couple that's better than just really good is rare, and hard to find in most movies and shows.

[@bobmat5140]

it`s so beautiful to see Sarah ( Sadie) smiling. Teared up a little seeing her here.. Anybody who watched the show knows what i mean. I hope Sarah Gadon gets many more tv and movie roles. She was so great on 11.22.63 . Greetings from Germany :D

She was gay in Letterkenny

[@bigsniper2414]

She is so beautiful and such an amazing actress, I wish her the best too.

[@nickreynolds8391]

Sarah has no issue whatsoever getting work. She even got to lead/headline a Netflix miniseries (Alias Grace). I do think she's very underrated though. Pound for pound she's probably as talented as any actress out there. And crushingly cute too - so it's a little curious as to how she hasn't fully broke out. That said she has already accomplished a lot and still has a LONG way to go in her career.

[@bigsniper2414]

Her smile is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen ! She's such a natural beauty

[@4GUESTS]

My wife and I stumbled upon this series last night on HULU and watched them to the end. I don't usually expect much from a Netflix or HULU exclusive, but this was done well. I didn't like the acting from the guy who played Oswald, but the other main characters did a surprisingly good job. BTW, she was typical of many of the girls back in the 60's, both in looks, charm, and brains. Lots of things were better back then, not to mention the food.

[@kbanghart]

Actually I thought the opposite, I thought the guy who played Oswald did really well. But anyway, what do you think the nature was of the old guy who kept showing up and telling them he shouldn't be there, and then explains the story of his child who was killed? I was thinking that he had also found the closet, but developed a mental illness and therefore couldn't break himself out of it. and why was it written on the staircase of the Texas book depository "You are the Patsy"?
