Welcome back to FANTASY ISLAND! A place where things are not always as they seem and the welcoming staff have their own mysterious stories. This is a darker and more sophisticated place as envisioned by executive producer Barry Sonnenfeld.
Malcolm McDowell brings a new magic to the role Mr. Roarke, who has traded in his white jacket for a dark Armani suit, and a dangerous edge to go with it. He welcomes new visitors to a lush setting, where he changes their lives as he fulfils their lifelong dreams. With his wise sense and droll touch, Roarke guides his guests through the most provocative adventures of their lives, but each experience has its price, lending new meaning to the old adage to be careful what you wish for -- you just may get it.
Trips are booked through a rather eerie travel agency, a dim and musty place that seems to exist in no
particular time.
Fisher does as his name suggests, catching unsuspecting prospective guests in his net and sending them off to Fantasy Island. Fisher has a magical ability to divine each person's deepest thoughts and wishes, which are copied down in detail by surly secretary Clia and then whisked by pneumatic tube to Roarke's island office. These papers are essentially Roarke's weekly marching orders, and he does not exactly relish their arrival. While the other staff on the island are in Roarke's service, Fisher is Roarke's nemesis, as week after week he shoots new challenges Roarke's way via tube.
Indeed, the Fantasy Island staffs' ultimate fantasy is to leave this lush place, to which they have all been banished to serve for mysterious reasons that will now never be made entirely clear. Except perhaps by our writers. ABC cancelled Fantasy Island after 13 episodes.
