I've read the book too. A number of years later and it was interesting. Not sure if I remember there was a someone narrating the show. It's been years as I said since I have seen the original.

This thing came on tv when I was in high school. I even watched "Centennial"

StarWars and StarTrek stuggle to sell

Time Bandits? a strange choice...: Lisa Kudrow To Lead Cast and maybe a change Sean Connery ocne did King Agamemnon, John Cleese a wacky Robin Hood there was David Warner Evil Genius or Clement Iain Morris, and Taika Waititi as “evil” actors with dwarfism banned for other SJW politics
and election years this time period is usually bad for tv

Is Time Bandits scifi or Comedy?

financed by ex-Beatle George Harrison's HandMade Films, the original grossed $36 million on a budget of $5 million.
a cult hit

the era of hard scifi or space based science fiction seems over

maybe more fanatsy comicbook-ish the cartoon genre

Looks a bit silly but some thriller 'fashion' family plot, French tv on Apple, La Maison TV Series être aux premières loges or the premières loges are the places closest to the scene...doesn't have the same ring as 'Front Row'

Netflix seems to have dumped Hollywood and now shows Korean dramas

oh well...I guess scifi will continue dying



maybe they could do travel shows or documentary?



the Nature Documentary format
National Geographic or BBC's David Attenborough would be ones to learn from


sometimes Marvel Disney had ok shows, for now DC Warner Bros has Penguin
