OMG I've seen this show before! I used to watch it when I was a kid. I can't believe it!
Okay, so I finally get around to it on my list of shows to watch and I decide to choose an episode to see if I'd like it. So what happens? I choose this episode called "The Mission" cause it sounded interesting and for some reason sparked my interest! I watched it and I can't believe it...for Years YEARS I've been trying to find this episode...though I honestly thought it was a movie for all these years.
It was my favorite film I remember watching when I was little, all I remembered was a man being stuck somewhere inside a plane and was going to die, but then he drew some wheels for the plane to land and survive. You wont believe how many airplane movies I've seen throughout these years just trying to find this one episode when all this time it was part of a tv series. I see why I got confused though, since the directing was done like a movie and there were so many famous actors in it.
But WOW! I can't believe this was actually one of my favorite shows to watch. I looked through the episodes and found so many that I remember...though I used to think they were movies, or episodes from Goosebumps that were really well made.
Okay I'm rambling on...but after so many years of trying to find this show i'm really excited.

Lol!. Isn't it great how things turn out like that?. "The Mission" was a wonderful episode. Very film-like. That episode was directed by Steven Spielberg, so that explains it. Lol. It was just a cool, special episode from a cool, special television series. Glad you saw the ep and are re-discovering other episodes. I love it when you stumble onto something and it's like OH MY GOD!!. Lol.

Believe me, you were not rambling on. When it comes to this show, ramble away!!.

Going to get this for Christmas with my usual stack of gift cards. Lol. Such an amazing, magical show. I urge everyone to check it out. Vintage 80s Spielberg!

Barrybgb

I ordered season 1 yesterday! I can't wait to get it.

One of my favorite Christmas episodes ever came from this show. The episode was titled "Santa '85". I'm sure it's on YouTube. In it, Santa is arrested after setting off a burglar alarm in a house. The kid of the house finds his sleigh and reindeer and knows that it was the real Santa. He then tries to break Santa out of jail. It's very Christmasy and magical and a lot of it was filmed on the street used for Wisteria Lane in "Desperate Housewives".

I fixed the OP.

Is it just me who remembers this? Lol.

Melis

The OP looks good.

I don't know it, Barry.

Barrybgb

Thanks!

I'm always going to be promoting this one. Lol.

Melis

Hope we can see it again.

Barrybgb

It would be nice. Only 1 season came out. There is only one left. SyFy used to air them all the time but they haven't for years.

Melis

I hope it does.

Barrybgb

Imagine getting a Spielberg influenced, Amblin Entertainment feel of an episode every week and that's Amazing Stories.

Melis

Oh that sounds good.

Barrybgb

It is. They aren't all winners, but it's fun. A lot of famous and familiar people were on this show.

Melis

That is so cool.
