The series begins with a detailed and exciting look about The strangest tales of madness and farce that relate to love, loss in the dark. It is a Spanish format that tells about the tales of madness. We start with the two brothers who have been reunited, Gabi and Hanna under harsh conditions, and a troubled girl named Kayla is trying to start a new life in her grandmother's house.
"Tell Me a Story" [is] more like the Brothers Grimm meets "13 Reasons Why," a perfect combination of childhood frightmares, teen angst and adult drama.
But if nothing else, Tell Me a Story's got a wicked bite that might serve it well when trying to grab curious viewers on a streaming platform that doesn't quite have anything else like it.
An inexplicable morass of loosely intersecting storylines about irritating people making poor decisions, delivered with completely unearned self-seriousness.
Tell Me a Story is the sixth original series being offered by CBS All Access. While it's a strong drama so far, it still isn't enough to make it necessary to subscribe to the streaming platform.
