It's the right mix between a perfect cast, a unique retro-futuristic world, and strong writing and storytelling that makes it worthy of your attention. It's the fresh reinvention of Death of a Salesman that we never knew we needed nor did we even think about asking for, and as strange as that sounds, it's more than worth your time.

By the end of the third episode, the studied slow pace of the narrative begins to grate a little, and you suspect the show may be offering more in performance and slick direction (the ‘50s tableaus are seriously impressive) than it is in story. Nevertheless, even as the plot decelerates and you start to wonder where the payoff might be, and if it might come too late, the uniqueness of Hello Tomorrow! is its own reward.

Like many programs of the streaming age, this one probably would be better as a movie – Jack continues to find ways to kick the can of truth down the road into a potential second season — but ultimately “Hello Tomorrow!” made me hope the show will have enough tomorrows to reach an adequate resolution.

It’s worth streaming Hello Tomorrow! for the visuals and for Crudup’s lead performance. But it’s going to need to show us more than what it’s showing in its first episode for us to continue past the first handful of episodes.

There is a whole bundle of talent with not much to do and no direction. As with everything Apple – the show may lack substance, but its production values are impressive.

The slight plot never quite catches up to the concept, and the production design consistently outshines the mysteries. The show plods along at a strangely restrained pace and perhaps should have taken the advice of its protagonist and remembered the “Wow”.

Billy Crudup does a lot of heavy lifting in this, but it’s a wasted effort; I didn’t buy into much of “Hello Tomorrow!” except I was sold on its knockout production details.

A show that grabs you, and leads you to that nostalgic 60is dream of the future. Combined with a historic lead about selling the moon... And yes, you feel that the series is still finding a little bit of its identity, But give it a chance, let it pull you into a world of make-believe where you can have that dream of living on the moon!!

Billy Crudup plays the leader of a team that travels to various cities selling lots on the Moon. What makes this series look appealing is the retro-futuristic 50s style that adds sci-fi elements like robots, gravity defying cars and funky electronics. These glimpses are cool, but once the novelty wears off, this turns into a more traditional narrative. The wise-crack interactions of the sales team provides a smidge of humor and mildly entertaining fun characters, but Crudup's character obsession with a young new sales trainee dominates the drama. Despite Crudup's effective portrayal, this show starts with promise, but mostly abandons its cool factors for more traditional fare. This review is based on the 1st 4 eps, but there are hints about secrets yet to be revealed in the remaining 6 shows.
