It's the right mix between a perfect cast, a unique retro-futuristic world, and strong writing and storytelling that makes it worthy of your attention. It's the fresh reinvention of Death of a Salesman that we never knew we needed nor did we even think about asking for, and as strange as that sounds, it's more than worth your time.
By the end of the third episode, the studied slow pace of the narrative begins to grate a little, and you suspect the show may be offering more in performance and slick direction (the ‘50s tableaus are seriously impressive) than it is in story. Nevertheless, even as the plot decelerates and you start to wonder where the payoff might be, and if it might come too late, the uniqueness of Hello Tomorrow! is its own reward.
Like many programs of the streaming age, this one probably would be better as a movie – Jack continues to find ways to kick the can of truth down the road into a potential second season — but ultimately “Hello Tomorrow!” made me hope the show will have enough tomorrows to reach an adequate resolution.
It’s worth streaming Hello Tomorrow! for the visuals and for Crudup’s lead performance. But it’s going to need to show us more than what it’s showing in its first episode for us to continue past the first handful of episodes.
There is a whole bundle of talent with not much to do and no direction. As with everything Apple – the show may lack substance, but its production values are impressive.
The slight plot never quite catches up to the concept, and the production design consistently outshines the mysteries. The show plods along at a strangely restrained pace and perhaps should have taken the advice of its protagonist and remembered the “Wow”.
Billy Crudup does a lot of heavy lifting in this, but it’s a wasted effort; I didn’t buy into much of “Hello Tomorrow!” except I was sold on its knockout production details.
