The Storyteller (1987–1989)
10/10
A beautiful and magical series

"The Storyteller" was a very important part of my childhood.

Since I was a kid, I loved the way in which this series made a dark portrayal of fairy tales, in a sharp contrast with the colorful adaptations of such kind of stories I used to watch when I was a little kid.

However, this series wasn't only dark, but it was also incredibly beautiful and captivating at the same time: In many ways, I think that it was thanks to this show that I started to appreciate the beauty of many other "dark" films and television shows that I saw in later years.

Now that many so-called "dark" fairy tales have been released in the recent years (Like for example, that awful "Snow White and the Huntsman" and the "Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters") I think that it would be good for young viewers to see a magical and inspiring series like this.
