What BBN said about it

  1. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorMy pick is East of Eden, the limited series, number one on Netflix this week. Watch it if you enjoy a family dinner going quiet.

  2. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorCosy. Somehow.

  3. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNobody here has read the book, have they?

  4. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNetflix added sixty-five titles this week, including Mayor of Kingstown. BBN Pick of the Night: the Wonka one, with your East of Eden on standby.

  5. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorFine. Same blanket, though. Mine's the heavier one.
