Disclaimer: It's a Stephen King series and you have to buy it.


I'm enjoying season one so far. They are doing a great job of following the books.

It's about an old retired crusty detective vs a sick psychopathic killer.

Anybody else read the books or see this series ?

I read the 3 book series last February. I thoroughly enjoyed all of them and would highly recommend them to anyone.

I enjoy King and Kootz stories. Some might get a little crazy but I haven't come across a clinker yet.

I just finished the 1st season and if you read the books it's a must see.

Getting ready for season 2 (Finders Keepers)

I have watched Season 1 and 2.

I have the clown mask and a tennis ball,

Guess what I will be at Halloween?

I thought the series was well acted, and like the characters. Not bad for an adaptation for King.

Just started watching on “Peacock” streaming. Free with my Xfynity cable.

Pretty good so far, almost done with season 1






What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???

Thanks for the tip. I've been looking to start a new series and after watching S1E1 this looks like a good one.

Thanks, Stephen King may be a lunatic lefty but he writes some good shit.
Going to give it a try.

Started last night, thanks for the heads up. Never even heard of Peacock streaming until searching for this show.

I saw it is going to cost me $20 so I passed.
Luckily I found "the Queens Gambit" last night and it was a wonderful FREE replacement.
Maybe later or when it hits the free market.
I'll keep it on my watch list though. Frown

I'm not a big reader when I'm home, but when we go to Mexico once per year I put some books on my Kindle. I am a huge fan of Stephen King's books and the Bill Hodges trilogy is outstanding. I really hate it that he is such a lefty. I doubt I'll watch the shows if I have to pay for them, because he's a lefty.
