see = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agatha_All_Along_(miniseries)

and Yochanan reviewed 'Uglies', a film he also saw on Netflix, as not as well done, kind of a mish-mosh and decent, but not all that great
see = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uglies_(film)
and Yochanan reviewed 'The Crossroads of Time' by Andre Norton as an early attempt at writing about multiverses. It's a fast read & he liked it, considering it a good book
