Hello Tomorrow!

It is beyond me how many strange reasons i have read here from complaining people.

Hello Tomorrow is a drama about SELLING DREAMS to easy to scam desperate people of the failed american dream flavoured with a beautiful and creative atomic punk setting. No action, no war, no lasers, its a moody drama in a beautifully done alternate 50s sci-fi setting. Very interesting plot about a swindler mastermind's ways to try to built a business based on fairy tales about moon-homes for poor people... Very good presentation of the 50s nostalgic, also fake "smiley" american world filled with interesting inventions. Its like a little tale from Amazing Stories magazine.

NO, NOT STEAMPUNK, stop using that word, it has nothing to do with this series. Atomic punk is from the pulp era, from the America that never was (fallout world without the nuclear desolation).

Also: the trailer was pretty good: I expected EXACTLY that based on that. I dont even know how ppl thought, it will be action packed as they missing that.... not everything is about cheap superheros folks.

This is my review after two episodes. It may change, but I'd be surprised if it goes down. This is the world of the Fallout games before the bombs hit -- 50's aesthetics, hover cars and robot assistants. If you're a video gamer, this setting might already have a place in your heart.

However, we also have Billy Crudup. He's one of those people whose delivery is so engaging that you just have to listen to what he's saying. If you've seen the Morning Show, you know what I mean. Other actors I'd put in this category are Jack Nicholson and Manny Patinkin.

Despite the fact that this is science fiction, the situations are believable, realistic human problems. Shady salespeople, family secrets and people learning lessons later in life.

Retrofuturism is not the point of this show. It's just a device to explain why the future is not as interesting as they thought it should be in the fifties. The reason that future never worked out is because that is not the way that it was meant to be. But in this show let's assume they got the future they wanted, which caused them to miss out on the future we take for granted today, 70 years later.

This is why the social, political and economic turmoil of the sixties through 2010s never happened and things are as boring as they are; their vision of the future solved a lot of those problems for them. But it created a utopia that seems lame because it lacks all of the conflict and drama that we're accustomed to.

It is no different from a lot of science fiction shows. The future isn't all that interesting. What is interesting is how people deal with conflict, turmoil and collapse. This society has no global warming. It doesn't have opioid addiction. It doesn't have mass shootings. Racism does not exist here. It doesn't have a lot of things. So yes it's boring, but that is what happens when technology solves our problems. It is the reason why they're selling empty promises of the moon, because despite their technological advances, they are missing something deep down. This is a human condition that technology will never address.

...... Well now I will be as honest as I can ever be...It's one of those cases when the trailer was sensational and the tv show is just nowhere near it, too simple and sad. I mean it's predictable ok? And just plain boring. Was expecting so much more from this...like some action scenes but it's too melodramatic for my taste i'm afraid... , three episodes in and it's still stuck in this weird and sleepy drama from start to finish....so I'm not sure I will finish the series...but maybe one more episode i will watch . I just hope they come up with something new and far more imaginative than this.

Pretty solid for an Apple TV series there's better ones but I'm glad the credit sequence is nominated it is impressive! Not fully sure why this wasn't appreciated more it's well made, plus I've loved Billy Crudup since he played Dr. Manhattan in Watchman and I loved him in Almost Famous. I absolutely love anything Sci-Fi even though Hello Tomorrow isn't top notch it's nice, Billy is a genius at his pitches in any type of business cinema, and I've seen much sadder shows so I'm not sure about that one I would easily recommend this! I would say some moments are awkward the acting is a little off.
