this was such a intriguing television show it's too bad somebody didn't make it into a series. there are only four episodes here and i could have watched at least thirty more.that always happens to some of the best and most intriguing series potentials. ABC network canceled one of it's most promising new series 'Pan Am' because of lack of audience and critical interest. as far as watching a show about advertising ('Mad Men') Vs. a show about the old transatlantic Boeing airplanes, i'd rather watch the airplanes. funny though H.G. Wells himself was critical of areoplanes.this doesn't always happen with television. back in the 1980's, the movie 'Buckaroo Banzai' should have been made into a series of movies sequels and had great potential for it. i hate when this happens and more mediocre entertainment spawns one franchise after another.of all the authors i've read i've read H.G. Wells the most. my father loved H.G. Wells and had a collection of his stories which i've kept and picked up from time to time. i've always wondered why someone didn't make more out of Well's short stories. then i discovered this mini series and was impressed with what they made of them.i'm sure having Nick Willing involved with this project helped. Nick Willing is among the very best producers of made for television ventures. he's always original in his vision and has a way of making classic authors and stories feel fresh and vibrant.this story was great sci-fi with a turn of the century look and feel of the author's time period. it was also very whimsical and funny as in the episodes about the fat man who becomes weightless and the truth serum segment where the stuffy college Dean professes his amorous affections for a young professor by saying "is it possible for one man to feel this way about another?". hilarious as all hell.great show and great job from expert Nick Willing. it's says a lot when your main complaint is that there isn't more of it.

This was truly an engaging series, a sensational treasure to view. I thought about Steven Spielberg's Young Sherlock Holmes from years ago, which didn't work for me. Infinite Worlds did work wonders on me and I was more of a Jeremy Brett/Sherlock Holmes fan than I ever was an H. G. Wells fan.Infinite Worlds never gets too technical to leave someone out who may not grasp much about science and math, like me, nor does it get too ficticious, reminding one of Doctor Who. It was never campy either and never quoted Shakespeare. The acting never required going over the top, but it was right on level, no chewing up the scenery among these professionals. The feel, the imagery were all splendid.Of the six stories, the first two bordered on the most tragic, especially the first one, which set the stage for the entire program. The third one was reminiscent of War of the Worlds. Try not to think of Aliens too much, but the ending with Mrs. Cave and Davey the dog was very surprising. The fourth story was truly an original one done in an original manner, the last two were very romantic, I think the final one was truly the funniest and had me wishing there was more to see when it ended.An exceptional contribution that set the mood was undeniably Stanislas Syrewicz musical score, as it played each time to signify not that a movie was simply ending, but we were seeing closure in another H. G. Wells chapter.I recorded this program off, not sure if it was going to be a documentary or docudrama, so I didn't know what exactly to expect. I was not disappointed at all.Minus commercials, it runs about four and a half hours. How I would love to see more of this in some way shape or form. I would always say "there are worse things on you could watch" but in this instance I will say "there aren't many better things you can find to watch."

It's not usual to meet a so good work! The three movies are perfect, intrigant, agreeable. The scripts take the audience from the adventure to the comedy. It's not easy to find a so good cast! English comedians have always something to teach. A real good TV product!

I managed to catch most of this 3 part mini-series on Hallmark just a couple of days ago, and I haven't stopped thinking about it ever since. I feel that it's a really great movie, partly because of the great special effects and interesting phenomenon mentioned, and also because of the relationship between the lead characters in the movie. For all those science buffs out there, this would definitely be a good show to watch and tease your little grey cells somewhat. Even though the characters in this show are mostly fictitious (except for H.G. Wells himself, of course), I feel that it's still worth watching if not for the science, then for the romance.
