(Albuquerque, NM) Tuesday, October 31, 2023 - REELZ today announced its November 2023 premieres led by new original documentary Killing JFK: 60 Questions examining the most investigated, most debated and most controversial death in American history which marks its 60th anniversary in November 2023. Killing JFK: 60 Questions answers the enduring questions surrounding the assassination including why there was no live TV coverage of the assassination and whether Lee Harvey Oswald was even capable of inflicting such devastating damage with a bolt-action rifle from a sixth-story window and what happened to President Kennedy's brain after his autopsy at Parkland Memorial Hospital. Killing JFK: 60 Questions answers these questions and many more. November 2023 also features live action in primetime with new episodes of the hit original series On Patrol: Live premiering every Friday and Saturday at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT.
"REELZ is known for its variety of award-winning and groundbreaking programming related to the Kennedy family ranging from documentaries to Emmy-winning scripted miniseries which includes the miniseries The Kennedys-After Camelot featuring Matthew Perry's incredible performance as Ted Kennedy in his final dramatic role. As we bring Matthew's miniseries back to REELZ along with more of our library of Kennedy programming, we join his many friends and fans around the world who are mourning his loss," said Steve Cheskin, SVP of REELZ Programming.
The network's robust lineup of Kennedy-themed originals returning in November 2023 is led by the Emmy Award(R) winning miniseries The Kennedys and The Kennedys-After Camelot celebrating the storied lives and enduring legacy of the Kennedy family. Viewers will also see the return of the groundbreaking documentary JFK: The Smoking Gun focused on the evidence that points to the accidental shooting of President Kennedy by a Secret Service agent riding in the car behind the presidential limousine during the chaos of the Dealey Plaza assassination attempt. Finally, making its REELZ premiere in November 2023 is World's Most Amazing Videos showing viewers the ultimate caught-on-camera moments and thrilling footage from real life explosions, crashes and wild police chases to race cars out of control, stunts gone wrong and much more.
The brutal assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963 is one of the most controversial and debated deaths in American history largely because it's difficult to imagine a single assassin with a bolt-action rifle in a sixth-story window inflicting so much damage in such little time. Now in 2023 shocking new information from a Secret Service agent in the car following Kennedy has reignited the debate about whether Oswald acted alone. More than ever real answers are needed and the new original documentary Killing JFK: 60 Questions premiering Tuesday, November 21 at 11pm ET/ 8pm PT answers questions that have long lingered as well as new questions that reframe what happened on that dark day in Dallas. Killing JFK: 60 Questions features interviews with Bonar Menninger who is the author of Mortal Error: The Shot That Killed JFK, Ruth Paine who was friends with Lee Harvey Oswald's wife Marina and in whose garage Oswald stored his rifle prior to the assassination, Jim Marrs New York Times bestselling author of Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy which was the basis of the Oliver Stone movie, JFK, Dallas Morning News reporter Hugh Aynesworth and Abraham Zapruder via archival interviews.
New in November 2023 every Friday and Saturday night are episodes of On Patrol: Live at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT. On Patrol: Live follows live news-gathering protocols as its cameras document for viewers in real time the everyday work of police officers on patrol. Host and Executive Producer Dan Abrams, alongside Sgt. Sean "Sticks" Larkin (ret.) and Deputy Sheriff Curtis Wilson, provide minute-by-minute live analysis and context, offering unique insight into the experiences of the men and women of law enforcement appearing on the show. The live show content is complemented by segments dedicated to tracking down America's most wanted criminals, as well as finding missing people through the help of weekly "Missing" segments that air in conjunction with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and the Black and Missing Foundation (BAMFI). During these segments, the show calls on the viewing public and OPL's broad social media footprint, known as #OPNation, to reach out to NCMEC's and BAMFI's special hotlines, should they have any information related to the missing persons. Segments are also shared via the show's platforms on Twitter (@OfficialOPLive), Instagram (@officialoplive) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/ReelzOfficialOPLive/). Before every new episode of On Patrol: Live is a new episode of On Patrol: First Shift, airing every Friday and Saturday night at 8pm ET/ 5pm PT and providing updates of past stories covered by the show and presenting a look forward to the coming live episode. On Patrol: Live is produced by Half Moon Pictures for REELZ. Executive Producers are Dan Cesareo, John Zito, Lucilla D'Agostino, Paul Gordon, Joe Venafro and Dan Abrams.
Making its REELZ premiere in November 2023 is the reality series World's Most Amazing Videos showing the wildest moments ever captured on camera with heart-pounding footage of stunts gone wrong, high-speed crashes, intense police chases, near death escapes and more. World's Most Amazing Videos makes its REELZ premiere Tuesday, November 7 at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT. Kennedys-themed originals retuning in November 2023 are led by the Emmy-Award(R) winning miniseries The Kennedys on Saturday, November 18 with all eight episodes airing back to back starting at 6am ET/ 3am PT. Boasting an all-star cast led by Emmy Award(R) nominee Greg Kinnear as John F. Kennedy (JFK) and Barry Pepper who won the Emmy Award(R) for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries or Movie for his portrayal of Robert F. Kennedy, The Kennedys also features powerful performances from Emmy Award(R) nominated Tom Wilkinson OBE as Joseph Kennedy, Sr. and Katie Holmes as first lady Jacqueline Kennedy. Nominated for 10 Emmy Awards(R) with four wins, The Kennedys relives the public and private joys and tragedies of the most influential family in the world including fraternal rivalries, mob associations, the drugs and the women. The miniseries recreates the political crises that John F. Kennedy dealt with in the early days of his presidency including the Bay of Pigs invasion, the Cuban Missile Crisis that brought the world to the brink of nuclear war and the Civil Rights Movement. Viewers will see every twist and turn of this family's extraordinary story up to and including the assassinations of JFK and RFK.
Sunday, November 19 marks the return of The Kennedys-After Camelot with Katie Holmes reprising her role as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Matthew Perry starring as Ted Kennedy. Both parts of the hit miniseries air back to back starting at 8am ET/ 5am PT on Sunday, November 19 with Part 1 "Family Bonds" followed immediately by Part 2 "New Beginnings" at 10am ET/ 7am PT. The Kennedys-After Camelot is based on the New York Times best seller, "After Camelot: Personal History of the Kennedy Family 1968 to the Present" by best-selling author and biographer J. Randy Taraborrelli. Jon Cassar (The Kennedys) and Katie Holmes directed from scripts by Stephen Kronish (The Kennedys) and Sandra Chwialkowska (Lost Girl). The miniseries covers the years from 1968 to 1999 and uses public events as a background to tell the intimate story of this iconic family as it struggles to come to terms with what Jackie Kennedy Onassis herself called 'the end of Camelot.' From the tumultuous events of 1968 after the assassination of Robert Kennedy to the marriage of Jackie to Aristotle Onassis and the tragedy of Chappaquiddick, The Kennedys-After Camelot follows the family and shows the great personal price paid to live up to the Kennedy family political ambition.
The groundbreaking documentary JFK: The Smoking Gun returns on Tuesday, November 21 at 9pm ET/ PT. The two-hour documentary is extensively researched by veteran police detective Colin McLaren and is based on his four-and-a-half-year investigation into JFK's death including inspecting more than 30,000 government documents - totaling millions of pages - from the Warren Commission, FBI files, Dallas Sheriff's Department files, media reports and the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) report issued in 1998. Detective McLaren's research marked the first and only time a qualified homicide detective had carefully analyzed the complete catalog of evidence, testimony and witness statements surrounding the JFK assassination using state-of-the-art investigative tools and research methodologies. After reading Bonar Menninger's Mortal Error: The Shot That Killed JFK which details the 25 years of painstaking work done by ballistics expert Howard Donahue, McLaren committed himself to digging even deeper in the case with the discipline of his crime scene investigation experience. McLaren uses gun and bullet evidence and witness testimony from those on the ground as well as those in the presidential and surrounding limos coupled with the 25-year probe by Donahue to provide what is by far the most convincing evidence-based explanation for what happened on November 22, 1963. He managed to solve a crime that is every bit as shocking and incredible today as it was when it happened 60 years ago. McLaren believes he has found the "smoking gun" that killed JFK.
