1990s TV Miniseries Were Next Level (and most are on YouTube) REUPLOAD

DESCRIPTION
By the 90s -- thanks to the rise of cable -- the networks took things to the next level. Miniseries in the final years of the 20th century often boasted cinematic production values, and featured top-tier acting talent, intricate plots, and lush, immersive settings that rivaled big-screen releases.
In addition to the broadcast networks, cable channels like HBO had entered the miniseries game and apparently Stephen King had a clearance sale on his book rights. And that set the stage in the 90s for some amazing TV miniseries. And I have made a list of the very best…my favorite top 10 titles of the decade, along with some honorable mentions.
And let me tell you right now…the number one title on this list is so good and so iconic…There still an entire scenic tour and vacation package based on that miniseries nearly 30 years later…
