In this fantasy thriller series, familiar stories from classic fairy tales are reimagined and set in a dark, scary version of New York City. The series is based on a Mexican TV series and debuted in 2018 on CBS All Access. The series was cancelled in 2020 after airing two seasons. Tell Me a Story takes "the world's most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted psychological thriller. Set in modern-day New York City, the first season of this serialized drama interweaves The Three Little Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood and Hansel and Gretel into an epic and subversive tale of love, loss, greed, revenge, and murder." The second season of the show, set in Nashville, Tennessee, reimagines the princess-themed tales Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. Had it been renewed, the third season would have included adaptations of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Jack and the Beanstalk and Rapunzel.
