Lack of good storyline.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Well, I've read all of the comments posted, and thought I would add mine.I was 4 or 5 years old when this show originally aired. It may be that I saw it during its 1972 re-run, when I would have been 7.Like several others here, this show made such an impression on me that I have never forgotten it. Happened to be watching "Doomsday Machine" this week-end, and it prompted me to get up, visit IMDb and look it up. The fact that there are quite a few others here who share my age (or nearly so) and my experience strikes me as uncanny - almost spooky. We should probably start a club!I'd love to see this one again.

I remember this show as turning me on to James Thurber and his writing. I have been a fan and collector of his books ever since. I remember the series as unique, fantastic-in the true sense-and surreal. Oddly enough it replaced another comic, surreal albeit commercially prone program on the same network in the same time slot. Yes, prior to 1969 when this show first aired it was showing "The Monkees" in that very same slot. It is head and shoulders above most of the slop being offered on TV when there are more networks and is more money to produce and promote. A giant leap backward. If you have not experienced this show demand to see it and you will probably agree.

I remember being thrilled to learn that "My World and Welcome to It" was based on James Thurber's "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty." I recognized the similarities right away after reading the book, which was pretty amazing to me since I was just a kid. I'd love to see it in syndication. Lisa Gerritsen was a wonderful child actress and William Windom was perfect as John Monroe (aka "Walter"). It was well written and well acted. What more could you ask for? It was the perfect mix of reality and fantasy. Most of us live vicariously through television or film a few hours a day, so why not see it through the eyes of the master? We all have a little bit of John Monroe in us. "My World and Welcome to It" is the ultimate in escapism...for just a little while.

I'm so excited that I have found something about this series it has been so long. I remember watching this show when I was between 4-5 years old. I have for the past few years been trying to find the title to it. Have mentioned it to several people all whom say they remember something about it. My husband and I were watching The Hulk today and saw William Windom. I went online found him and the series. Being young I remember the cartoons. I would love to see this show again. Just the thought of it brings back wonderful memories. I'm glad to see that there are other people out there that share my thoughts. I would love to find this on DVD or video. Maybe one day.
