Comments: Susan enjoys watching a cartoon TV series. Time Ryder is her favorite show. Susan starts noticing something is wrong.
Time Ryder has vanished, the cartoon. The star, the hero of it is now real. Susan’s adventure begins.
Entropy is the villain and this guy is evil.
Susan, it turns out is much more than she knows. The way the story is going it is easy to guess.
The story runs like an old time corny TV serial. It is an inspiring episode. The theme song for Time Ryder is beautifully done. You will be singing along.
The ending to this is perfect. It will make you smile and feel good.

Comments: An uncle and niece go to watch a movie at a theater. The movie takes a strange twist. Things change fast here from a theater with regular employees to something you will not believe. Things turn terrifying. The world is changing.
In this episode, we see how a simple thing like watching a movie can turn into a nightmare. We also see how love can make one do anything.
The series does have a Twilight Zone feel to it. The acting is of the highest level and
