What to Know

Critics Consensus

The adventures of Young Indiana Jones are realized with impressive production design in this ambitious series, but George Lucas' gambit to use his creation as a tour guide through history proves more didactic than informative.

Young Indiana could end up restoring the good name of two-fisted, swashbuckling, prime-time pulp. Go to Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post 05/31/2019
First, the good news: It's handsome, scenic and colorful, produced with a lavish flourish rare for television. Now, the bad news: It's a rompety, clompety bore. Go to Full Review Rick Kogan Chicago Tribune 05/31/2019
You have never seen educational value so imaginatively and colorfully packaged... There is no hard sell, either in the excitement or education, but rather a classy melding of the two: live and learn, and have some fun while you`re at it. Go to Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand 08/27/2023

Boring... The writing largely suffers in its attempts to entertain and educate. Go to Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel 05/31/2019
Young Indiana Jones is a marvelous show. The stories are engrossing, the characters well-drawn and played, and the production values are extraordinarily lush for a weekly program. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
