The first episode talks about the heroes of the story when they were teenager and the second one is at the present time. for many people they found the first episode great and and the second a flop, and i really can understand why.
After watching each of the episodes i was a kind of unsure about this show i found it as a whole an OK TV Show, even for the first episodes.
the main problem for the first episode was the adult actors who were really terrible although there were some of my beloved actors such as: John Ritter, but the biggest problem was their reaction which was so unrealistic and it became more at the second part. to be honest it was the children who saved the show and brought to the screen a brilliant performance that no one can ever deny.
As for the second part i only can say that i only watched it because of Tim Curry, he was the only guy to be featured in both episodes and was the only one who carried the whole second show.
it was so nice to see one of the earlier performance of (Jonathan Brandis) who really had a unique acting quality (I still wish he was still alive today so we could see a lot of his performance), although i laughed a lot when i saw one of my most beloved actors from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Seth Green) . At the end it's an OK show with some memorable and enjoyable moments, but don't expect that much, and i only recommend it if you really a fan of the new version of this film (only if you want to make a comparison between them)
