In the interests of clarity I don't have Apple TV. I sat down at a mates place who does and we both "tried" watching the first episode. In short, what a disappointment.

What really stood out is this has little to nothing in common with the original film, it clumsily apes. Putting aside the humour found in abundance in the original film, is a lot of, at times clever, at times dark commentary about the human condition.

These aspects, which make Time Bandits what it is, are largely absent from the episodic remake. In short, this is shallow, mostly unfunny fare, that has little to say that's even remotely interesting.

Yes production values are high and there's some quality actors in this series but well, as I've said before that's not enough on its own.

In the end my friend and I switched it off and re-watched the original film instead. I'd suggest you do the same.
