Excellent mini-series!

Even though I'm a King fan I didn't watch this for ages because I thought it would bring in one of the kooky conspiracy theories. I should have trusted Stephen King more. He's too intelligent to fall for that rubbish. Lee Harvey Oswald acting alone killed Kennedy, taking advantage of the motorcade route to stake his claim to a place in history. When he read that the President would be passing right by the Depository he must have seen the hand of Destiny at work. How could he not? All his life he'd felt special and here was his chance to prove it.

Folks like you, King and myself are in the minority here.

As I said in another thread, I used to believe that Oswald was part of a conspiracy to kill JFK, but after looking, I found that there is no credible evidence to support this belief.

I just got the DVD and I am starting the second disc today. Enjoying it so far. I read the book and really liked it. Have you read the book?
