The Ray Bradbury Theater brought the esteemed author to syndicated TV, bringing his many short stories (and some originals) to visual form. But being an anthology series, this means some of these entries are better than others.

Retelling old tales collected from legend, the show's nine episodes still centered on the fantastic...but were perhaps too drab, too humorless, for those expecting the zest of a Fraggle or Muppet.
