"Tales from the NeverEnding Story" is a one season-only TV series that is
loosely based on Michael Ende's novel, "The NeverEnding Story." It aired on
HBO in 2002, and was aired as 4 two-hour television movies in the US and as a
TV series of 13 one-hour episodes in the UK. The first two television movies
were released on DVD and VHS in 2002, followed by a complete series box set
in 2004.
Departing from the canon of the 1979 novel, the overall story in the series
explores the origin story of how Bastian discovers Fantasia from an even
greater point of divergence from Michael Ende's novel than the 1984 and 1990
Warner Brothers films had previously depicted.
Events from the novel occur out of order, and specific plot points are rever-
sed between characters. For example; In the novel and films, it is Bastian
who enters the world of Fantasia, but here it is Atreyu who enters our world.
The concept of Yin and yang is introduced by altering the nature of the
Childlike Empress's relationship with Xayide. In the series they are sisters
with opposing ideologies. The Old Man of Wandering Mountain also takes on a
larger role in the series, becoming a mentor of sorts to Atreyu in much the
same way as Karl Konrad Koreander is for Bastian.
The series also introduces new supporting characters. Lucas and Marely are
Bastian's friends who try to defend him from school bullies, and Fly Girl is
a heroine whom Atreyu meets who is on her own Quest.
"Tales from The Neverending Story" is the first live action adaption not to
feature the characters of Nighthob, TeenyWeeny, or Rockbiter.

While not up to par with the movies, I still enjoyed these little diversions,
and it's always nice to get to see Mark Rendall :)
