Summary: 5 Stars
I grew up watching Fantasy Island as a kid and I came across the dvd set of season one by accident. I watched the entire series and loved it. I was reminded of the catch phrase "The The Plane" shouted by Tatoo whenever the plane would arrive with the guests. The series was aired in the 70s, which you can tell by the clothes and guest stars of each episode.
I would higly recommend this series to anyone, especially if you grew up with it or those wanting to discover the series for the first time. I would describe the show as a mixture of supernatural, fantasy, action, drama and humor, something for everyone.
The premise of the show is that each guest will pay the host Mr Rourke whatever they can afford and have a fantasy of theirs come true. They come to the island by plane and the guests are from all walks of life and ages.
Often the fantasy they paid for does not end up the way they anticipated, some of the fantasies paid for by the guests can become dangerous, however Mr Rourke and his able assistant tatoo are always on hand to make sure things to do not become life threatening. They often step in when required. Mr Rourke takes a personal interest in each fantasy and he will help guide the guests when the need it and he will teach each person a life lesson if they need it.
Mr Rourke may not be human, he could be an angel or something more mysterious, because some of the fantasies he creates can come from the guests past or from a period of time in history and the way they are created does lead the question, who is he really? Even his assistant tatoo has his questions.
While I was thrilled with season 1, I still have not seen season 2 and apparently sony who distributes the series has no plans to release it due to poor sales. So everyone who has bought it and has seen review to keep the hope alive of season 2 being released.
Movie Review: Memories Galore!

I loved this show when it was on Network TV. I love it just as much on the DVD. Fun to see all the stars that I haven't seen for awhile. "Da Plane, Da Plane!" Great entertainment.
