Amazing Stories

by Steven Spielberg
(20 March 1987)

Steven Spielberg brought Amazing Stories to TV in two seasons of an anthology format. At least one time-travel story—Jack Finney’s venerable “Such Interesting Neighbors”—appeared in the second season (20 Mar 1987).

Janet and I bought our first color TV for these episodes, a Sony of course.

Oh, Randy, neighbors are always strange; those are the rules.

Cartoon

Pinky and the Brain

by Tom Ruegger and Steven Spielberg
(6 October 1993)

In their quest for world domination, the pair of gene-spliced lab mice traveled through time multiple times, both in their role as an Animaniacs guest feature and in their own series. Their jaunts include a visit to H.G. Wells and his time machine.

As with the Warners in other Animaniacs episodes, it’s not always clear whether Pinky and the Brain are traveling through time or merely acting out a drama set in a different time period. Such is life within four walls.

Greetings from a post-apocalyptic future. We have traveled back through time to bring you the answer to all of your problems. We are your future selves.
