I suppose it isn't fair to rate a TV show after 1 episode, but the first episode was so dull I won't be watching any more. Maybe it gets better.
Fmovies: There is good and really bad! The good is Zachary Quinto I remember his superb performance in Heroes crikey he was scary and in this equally so. Not read the book so can't compare but to say 9/10 books always are better than any tv/ film adaption due to the individuals imagination very rarely with a lot of time and care and a talented script writer they can exceed expectations. However as much as the basis of the story is quite scary and interesting the script writing is quite bismal and the plot holes numerous! I am on season 2 which is set 8 years later she now has an 8yr old son yet the female lead looks and dresses identically as she was/did in season 1 seriously would not have taken much effort to change her looks ,! I can not count the many times I have questioned reactions etc of characters as stupid and nonsensical and have had to switch off mentally to be able to continue watching it's like the type of show you get angry at but continue to watch to pick at their next stupidity I would still rate it worth a watch if you haven't read the book.

NOS4A2 fmovies. I was kind of on the fence about watching this. And after starting I wasn't very impressed. But about a third of the way through it grabbed hold of me and I was hooked. Its really such a unique and creepy concept as kids are being taken from their homes and in some cases their parents murdered. We than meet a young woman Vic McQueen played by Ashleigh Cummings of Hounds of Love. She has an awful home life and with the help of a young charasmatic psychic named Maggie Leigh played by an impressive Jakhara Smith (Pilgrim) she discovers she has certain gifts. Anytime she wants to find something she can go to her very own psychedelic bridge and it will take her there. I know it all sounds a bit goofy but they pull it off very well. Unfortunately a supposed man named Charlie Manx played by a maniacal Zachary Quinto (Star Trek) is hunting those with gifts to feed his own hunger. I won't say anymore because I don't want to ruin anything but it's surprisingly great, disturbing, creative and quite unique.
4.25/5

NOS4A2 - Season 1 (2019) is an AMC series currently available on Hulu. The storyline is Christmas themed about an old man with a magical car who scoops up children, turns them into monsters and leaves them in "Christmas Town" where he occasionally feeds them adults. A young girl with struggling poor parents and unique abilities discovers this old man after he kidnaps multiple children she knows and does her best to team with friends to stop him. I've been meaning to watch this series for some time as it is written by one of my favorite authors, Joe Hill (Horns and Heart Shaped Box), the son of Stephen King. The cast is absolutely awesome and includes Zachary Quinto (Spock in the Star Trek relaunch movies), Ashleigh Cummings (Tomorrow when the War Began), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Punisher), Jahkarah Smith (The Pilgrim) and Olafur Darri Olafsson (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty). The storyline for this picture is very clever and fun to watch unfold. Every character, good and bad, has inner struggles and checkered pasts they are trying to overcome. The depth of every major and minor character is fantastic and well portrayed and delivered. This is one of the few Joe Hill books I haven't read, so I'm not jaded by the greatness of the book compared to the depiction in the show, but I can tell you the kill scenes are fantastic, the human eating children are well portrayed and I loved all the characters. I strongly recommend seeing this and would score it a 9-9.5/10. I can't wait to watch season 2.
