But whether you read the book or not, I'm curious what everybody thought now that the whole thing is available to watch, so fire away in the comments. Though the interview was conducted in January, when I'd seen every episode but the finale, we go through a whole bunch of spoilers for both the show and the book, so it made sense to save it for now.īelow, we dive very deep into the minutiae of the book and Carpenter's rationale for various changes.
I promised I'd run the full Carpenter interview when we got closer to the end of the miniseries, ultimately deciding to hold it until today's release of the series finale.
When Hulu's 11.22.63 debuted back in February, my review – which praised James Franco's performance as a teacher who travels back in time to stop the JFK assassination, but was disappointed in some of the changes made in adapting Stephen King's novel – included a couple of quotes from writer/producer Bridget Carpenter about why she chose to gloss over my favorite part of the book, where Franco's character gets to enjoy being a high school teacher in early '60s Texas.
