  • this show is amazing, so far from the shit you get today on tv, i watched i few days ago and it was mesmerizing, even today

  • I wouldn't lift my butt from the seat even at 3am if they put this Tv show once again

  • Why can't they make programmes like this anymore??

  • oh, the memories. Thanks for uploading!

  • We all know how good this show is so I'm not gonna sing it any praises myself.

    I will say one thing tho, all the shows I watched in spanish as a wee one I prefer without question over their english dubbed counterparts.

    This however is the exception. John Hurt's voice man, cannot be beaten.

  • Can't believe i've found this after so long!

    Thanks from Slovenia

  • OMG I FOUND IT!, i only havefaint memories but I spent hours and hours on google wrting down what I remember and it brought me here...I was like 8 or 9 when I used to watch this I think, I'm 18 now O_O

  • @gweneveereknightley Hours???? lol . Google , type storyteller = 30 seconds

  • @baldplums I didn't know what the show was called...lol

  • @gweneveereknightley Lol , sorry was in a cheeky mood ....... Absolutely Quality show though . Thank You

  • @baldplums It's fine :)

    yeah I watched all of the episodes again, so shattered there were only 9 made, They don't make shows like they used to *sigh*

  • I have been looking for this for years. I loved them as a kid. And now I want my children to watch them over. (and me) :D

  • i love this, i love this, i love this.... <3

  • Thank You, thank You, thank You..........

  • what brings sadness to me about this is that such good,joyful tv-show is gone forever.

    please bring this back to the tv!!!!!!

  • @mabelxxxbsb it is on netflex :)

  • @Amaterasu234 for real?? would you be kind and tell me what channel is it?

  • @mabelxxxbsb No, they won`t ... because then, none would watch "Big Brother" Show...

  • There is no other thing that brings me back so fast to my childhood...

    22 year old "kid" from Serbia / Srbija.

  • @GardaSrbije U potpunosti se slazem sa tobom ;).

  • Wow! I used to love this show, but now I can only remember two episodes (fearnot and the one about the giant who had a hornet's nest for a heart).

  • Can anyone tell me the episode/ name of the creature at 0:11? This takes me back many years, and I cannot remember it. Also, does anyone else think the creature at 0:13 resembles the Fireys from the Labyrinth?

  • ich hab es immer mit meiner mutter und meiner großen schwester geschaut allerdings auf deutsch :) ich hab mit leztes jahr die dvd gekauft und ich liebe sie sooo sehr *-*

  • it was wonderful ....it was magic....these stories were amazing...it reminds me of my youth...

  • there never make tv like the 80s again...true masterpiece!!!

  • OH MY GODDDDDD!!!!!!

    this completely sucks me to my childhood!! i wads mesmerized by this fantastic show!!! OMG i'm so excited right now!! that music, that dog..those creepy effects..and john hurt of course...what a show, what an opening theme!!!

  • wow. i remeber watching this show about 15 years ago, but had no idea what it was called until today.

    Great show! it remained very clear in my memory until today

  • great show.

    i was traumatized by the episode with the hedgehog man.

    gave me nightmares for a long while!

  • omg the one where she burned his prickerly skin? I remember that tooo lol

  • HAHAHA ME TOO! I had nightmares for so long! Wow! everyone who watches this has a mutual understanding of this show..

  • @willybrown2309 lol same here i was afraid of hedgehogs for the next couple of years.

  • oh geez! we watched these in english... they're sooo cheesy... the best one that ive watched was about the three ravens lololol... whenever we watch these me and my best friend crack up laughing at imitating "the storyteller"...

  • props!

    i was just surfing looking at old themes to kids shows and i was like this sounds familiar.

    too bad kids these days only have educational or animated futurisitc war tv shows.

    this looks scary.

    i remeber being scared watching the goblin ep of noddy and the clown ep in round the twist.

  • Genius tv series.

  • Holy shit. I have been trying to find out what this was. I had vague recollections of being extremely scared by an anthology tv series as a child. It feels so weird to watch this.

  • Jim Henson was ace when it came to puppetry and his stories, but there's another children's film from ages ago I'm trying to remember, I'm wondering if anyone here might know of it...the opening title was animated and the character used to sing,"I'm the storyteller and my stories must be told...and it went on...does anyone happen to know what I'm talking about? Also the stories were usually narrated by a female with a british accent or at some times a man..hope someone knows what I mean.

  • Can someone upload the actual episodes? You'd sure make a lot of fans of this show very happy. Best show to grace television. Too bad it didn't last. :(

  • Comment removed

  • 0:08 ... Creepy.

  • yes scary but perfect!

  • the best place by the fire is kept for.....the story teller.the best show ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in greece have great succes!!!!!!

  • I think my favorites out of the Storyteller series are "Hans My Hedgehog," "The True Bride," and "The Soldier and Death." These stories (all of them,really) were so excellently scripted, cast and visually wonderful. And Miranda Richardson as the evil Queen/Witch--perfect!!

  • OH! I Wiss The Old Days=[

  • *sigh* i miss those days

  • This was ace, totally forgot about this series until i stumbled upon this clip.

  • i remember this tv serie.one of the best ever

  • I just brought the dvd from amazon. I can't stop watching them! :D Love them haha

  • i love this my dad scared me shitless with it when I was really young but really loved it once I was a bit older (still young though). Its awesome

  • OMG!!!!

    I'm so happy I found this!

    thank u so much for uploading it!

    omg!! it was so easy but I couldn't remember...

    juts the storyteller[El cuenta cuentos in spanish :)] for about 13 years I tried to remember...

    anyway..I'm so "freaking" happy!

    this is the kind of TV shows that kids should watch not that crappy new tv shows that seem to be make for retards[not all, but what do u think about teletubies n barney ¬¬]

    <3 this!

  • same here!!! 13 years? beats the hell out of my 9. i was just expecting to say a lower number. it's just hit me how long ive missed this!

  • i know...

    but it was really hard to remember the tv show name... I was 5 when i used to watch it with my sis n my bro... :D

    this show brings me a lot of good memories :D

  • I am so glad other people in the world know this!!!!

  • it's sad really.. how shows today are all the same. Someone out there somewhere... SOMEDAY might meet up to the same level of imagination that Jim Henson possessed, but until then... we're shit out of luck!

PRICELESS GEMS! .. i also saw a bit of it on tv.. but i've never really been big on the telly..

  • anthony minghella? wow, had no idea he wrote and episode of this. small but wonderful beginnings for a tragic end.

    beautiful show

  • i love this show!! miss it so much

  • I don't know why, but the ring scene reminds me of 'The Hobbit'. It might have been influenced by John Ronald Reuel Tolkien's works.

  • thank you sooooo much for uploading thi vid ^_^ Does anyone know who're the authors of these compositures??

  • I used to love this show!!! Do they show it still? What channel? I want to see it again!! :(

  • My class on Children's Literature watches about one of these every week. They're very good. Something I noticed though is that the voice of the Storyteller's dog changes halfway through.

  • man i loved this show.

    kids today have no idea though.

    arm.. does anyone have the endings?

  • screenplay by anthony minghella?!

    so it goes.
