Amazing Stories

I was a huge fan of the original. I read the reviews on here and was very skeptical about trying this version out. I am so happy that I ignored all of the negative reviews. I have made it through episode 4 and I am just as hooked to this reboot as I was to the original. What wonderful stories so far. I can not wait to get to the next episode. The first episode, the cellar was touching. The second episode, The Heat was simply better than most regular television shows I have seen recently. The third episode, Dynoman and the volt brought me back to my childhood and the last episode, Signs of Life brought back the Sci-Fi touch. After re-reading the reviews, I guess that this type of show may not be something for everyone because it is a self contained story for each episode. I recommend that you put it on for yourself and make your own judgement. I personally loved everything about it so far.

The stories remind me of some of Ray Bradbury's short stories. They have heart and a sweetly reminiscent quality. I enjoyed the first two stories the most. Maybe people were expecting more, but I felt each episode was enjoyable, if not "amazing."

First episode ''the cellar'' I loved it. Very good story and a series produced by Steven Spielberg. Come on guys, giving bad reviews just to give a bad review is so sad! Can't wait to see more of the few episodes he produced on Amazing Stories.

I hope Apple TV+ becomes as popular as Netflix. Netflix is all about quantity and not quality. Apple TV+ does a great job on quality so far.

Just watched the premiere episode and it was a good watch. Sadly, it didn't leave me with the same feelings as the original series. It wasn't an Amazing Story, only a Good One. The basic plot had everything you could want. But, the dialogue was a little too PC (aren't we all getting a little tired of that?) and the acting wasn't top notch. I'm hopeful for future episodes though. UPDATE: Just finished watching episode 2 and it was okay. That's about it. Being brutally honest, this reboot could be renamed 'Mediocre Stories'. When the original series premiered 35 years ago, it was ground breaking. They were spending over $1 Million Dollars an episode on the best talent to do the best stories. That's just not happening on the reboot. They're okay shows and I've enjoyed both of them. But, they're nothing special. I wouldn't want to watch them again. You know how some shows are so good that you want to watch them the next day just to see if you missed anything? You don't get that here.

I have to admit halfway through I thought it was just recycled story of "Somewhere in Time" staring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour which I liked so I was entertained even if it was going to be the same end. But I think the ending was fantastic, and somewhat of a twist. I was like wow, that's different, plus they added something I found pretty cool to the end, especially if your a collector. So give it a go and watch the first episode, it may not be amazing for all, but it's entertaining, and some will love it. Now I need to see the next episode, and maybe that's a dud, maybe the rest are duds and I have to revise my review of the entire series. I'm certainly not going to trash the entire series without seeing them all. I think the Twilight Zone is a 10, but I don't like every single episode. So I will see how many I like and I'll come back and update how I feel. So far episode 1 was good.
