Okay, so I recently finished watching 11.22.63 on Hulu, and it’s a really compelling series. James Franco plays Jake Epping, a teacher who gets pulled into this crazy situation – his friend shows him how to travel back in time. The friend tried for years to prevent the JFK assassination, but couldn’t, so he passes the mission onto Jake. Basically, Jake has to go back to 1963 and try to stop Lee Harvey Oswald. But what’s fascinating is that the past doesn’t want to be changed. Every time Jake tries to alter things, it pushes back, and he starts to realize messing with history could ruin the life he’s building in the past. It’s a really gripping story and explores how difficult – and dangerous – changing history truly is.
