Amazing Stories

Yes Episode 1 was dull and Episode 2 was utterly awful but wait... Episode 3 is actually quite charming and has that Spielberg vibe. And great to see Robert Forster in one of his last roles.

Shocked and saddened by so many poor reviews about this series. Know your audience and open your minds. Brilliant for young teens, it's called 'Amazing Stories' - and it's that.

Was a fan and watcher of the original "Amazing Stories" series on "NBC" during the mid 80's which was created by mastermind Steven Spielberg, and now in the present day he's returned with this new "Amazing Stories" series for "Apple TV+" and most of the tales are interesting. Unlike the older one's this new series doesn't have many household names, and many of the episodes feature technology of the present times to make it feel more like 2020. Still the stories all involve twist and most tales are filled with themes of fantasy and imagination and each one has that old sci-fi like feel. Many of the stories involve time travel and connection as they end with a sentimental touch and feel. Overall good streaming series for today's crowd and a watch for fantasy fans and fans of the original.

I hope the first episode is an indication of the quality we should expect to see in the rest of the series. I don't usually write reviews but after seeing all the silly low reviews I owed it to the people who worked so hard on this. If you are so fragile that you were triggered by the mention of climate change or the brief recognition of two men having a family, you may want to pass. If you are a reasonable human being chances are you will find it a romantic story of self-sacrifice.

Episode 1 was very good, But episode 2 a huge disappointment. However, episodes 3 through 5 were enjoyable. Skip episode two and you will most likely enjoy this series.
