Growing up with American Girl dolls and period dramas like Little Women meant I always wanted to time travel. (Siri, play "I Hate It Here" by Taylor Swift). That feeling never quite went away — and thanks to Bridgerton and My Lady Jane, not only do I want to check out another time period, but I'd love to experience a little magic along the way. Enter: Apple TV+'s new TV show Time Bandits. The series follows a group of thieves who take in an 11-year-old history nerd and set out to save his parents. The trailer is colorful, fun, and is exactly the kind of summer adventure you've been waiting for!
Is Time Bandits being remade?
Yes, there's a new Time Bandits coming to Apple TV+ this summer! The comedy, which stars Taika Waititi and Lisa Kudrow, follows a less-than-popular 11-year-old who's obsessed with history. But he gets a whole new look at his favorite time periods when he joins a group of time-traveling thieves in a quest to save his parents.
This plot got even better when I remembered all of Phoebe Buffay's past lives in Friends. I wonder if she was a time bandit too? ;)
