A great formative influence for the Sci--Fi buff
It was a discrete, wise, quite, charming and weird TV show.Pére Bradbury's filmed sketches were on TV during my adolescence, and they shaped my idea of a SciFi show and of how it should look (and taste, as well ). That's why a later exposure to TV space operas was practically uselessI was lost for the spaceopera ,and educated, as it were, by Pére Bradbury's quiet marvels and paradoxesnice, wise ,gentle things, often with a humorous or a paradoxical side ;and by the '80s TWILIGHT ZONE (whose score still thrills me ).These humble things looked to a 1314 yrs. old quite exquisite and stylish and even maybe somewhat sophisticated; never dull or disappointing. This was my idea of a SciFi show, of vintage SciFi TV. The intro was unforgettablePére Bradbury in the elevator, than entering his small officethe toys, the objects around his office .We were told he never took the plane; we felt that his mind was imposing, and the oldster looked friendly and peaceful.At the same age, I had the pleasure of reading a weekly magazine that sometimes offered a Bradbury short story (it offered a short storysometimes two, if even shorter --each time ), and then the treat was manifold. I think that there, in that magazine, I first encountered Bradbury's literature in its printed form.
I remember your TV show,Pére Bradbury,with fondness and gratitude;it was firsthand SciFi.
It cultivated the taste for the concise TV sketch.
score 10/10
