This is a thing I had on a "watch later" list for years, after discovering it on the Internet, which I finally got one day (and it was amazing). Apparently a really good composer wrote the score, as well as really quality songs. That was good enough to remember.
So I watched it, and I liked it. Yes it's dated, but in a way I like. It came from a mind of a visual genius and a lover or classical music, and a man very much stuck in the 60s/70s, Mike Jupp. He put together a team and somehow managed to get funding tow make 2 seasons, and lucky enough to get commissioned for 2 more. Oh, and it's a show from Britain.
The premise is that on a planet (just a planet) one half is the Land of Dreams (see: utopia) with little to no conflict and the residents getting pleasant dreams at night from a wizard, and the other side being the Land of Nightmares (clever name) with a population being more-or-less parody of working class british men ruled over by lord of all nightmares. Pretty much every episode the lord of nightmares sends his very british minions to the other side of the planet to steal the Dreamstone, a dream transmitter or close to it, to send everyone constant nightmares. The underlings frequently succeed, but thwarted at the end by various means.

>>242284 The wizard feels VERY british to me. Maybe it's because I consumed enough british media, but I think if americans were writing the show the Dream Maker would talk completely differently, and have different dialogue.
I remember the big Tarrasque-looking main villain just sitting on his gigantic throne all the time and sending the comical big nosed Troll things out, and never doing anything. I only recall one episode when he finally got off his ass and got soundly beaten.
Making a thread about the new Disney show Stugo. If you don't know what the show is here's a quick bit about it. >Six gifted middle schoolers are invited to a mysterious remote island in the Caribbean for what they believe is an academic summer camp. However, they soon discover that the camp is a ruse orchestrated by Dr. Lullah, a mad scientist who resides on the island. Unable to leave for three months, the kids must navigate the island's fantastical and dangerous flora and fauna, much of which has been created by Dr. Lullah.

>>481707 Thanks for the detailed reply. Very helpful. Black Island looks like the more interesting of the two books, but I'll check out the Congo one first.
