An outstanding family miniseries that may be small in size but is mighty in heart, Lost Ollie is a masterpiece. If the week’s, month’s or year’s events have you down, this is certainly the place to get lost in.
Well, if you aren’t aware, it is about discoveries we encounter throughout life. It is a story about melancholy, love, loss, joy, and everything in between. If you really want something that removes you from your living room and easy chair and transports you on a fantasy ride, Lost Ollie is the ticket. Subtly lamenting the transience of magic of childhood; it is about an adrift stuffed toy and the young boy he loves so dearly.

Helmed by Stranger Things producer Shawn Levy, along with Emily Morris and Josh Berry, it follows a rag-tag bunny with droopy ears and hazy memory as he sets out on a heroic search for his best friend, Billy. Further, the four-part limited series is based on William Joyce’s story Ollie’s Odyssey. And it seems like it had fans reaching for tissues as they binged through it. So much so, that they couldn’t stop filling Twitter with their take on the series. And if you haven’t watched it yet, and even the trailer doesn’t change your mind, here are some wholesome fan reactions to change your mind.

Even Shannon Tindle, the storyboard artist, had his mother sobbing after watching the miniseries.
Regardless of how the show is received, my mom just called after watching Lost Ollie, and through the uncontrollable sobbing, I could only make out one word, “proud.” 🥹

#LostOllie is a beautiful limited series about family and friendship and what it means to love. This was an emotional roller coaster that I didn’t see coming. Is it too early to call it a masterpiece? Maybe but it still is. Go watch it on Netflix as soon as possible. pic.twitter.com/4V7tUOJCFE

Fans are also demanding a DVD copy of Lost Ollie and another beautiful animated movie, The Sea Beast.
You know, Netflix could win a lot of people over by putting their exclusives on DVD or blu-ray more now. Not saying it will solve everything or be entirely a win, but I would like a hard copy of The Harder They Fall, The Sea Beast, and Lost Ollie.

A miniseries made for people who loved too tightly and not tightly enough, it is a perfect blend of childlike wonder and mature slow storytelling.
