From another reviewer at IMDb.com:
After re-watching this series more than once I'm going
to do my best to keep this spoiler free of my thoughts,
what I enjoyed most about the show and the final verdict!
This prequel series was so much fun to watch from the
beginning, middle and end! Sean Patrick Flanery brings
the iconic hero of Indiana Jones to life originally played
by the now 80-year-old Harrison Ford who is a charming
and charismatic rogue we all know & love! My favourite
part upon rewatching this TV show was seeing the grittiness
and brutality of the great war during volume 2! Along
the way, this younger version of our beloved childhood
icon will meet historical figures from the 20th century
played by so many celebrities who when you watch at a
younger viewing you'll completely forget they were in
this! Overall I had heaps of fun watching this series
and in 2023 I look forward to rewatching it all over
again that's why I'm giving Young Indiana Jones Chronicles
a 7/10! Hope you like it just as much as I did!!! XD. - samog-98289
