The Infinite Worlds of H. G. Wells is a six-part 2001 television miniseries conceived by Nick Willing and broadcast on the Hallmark Channel.
Each episode adapts — and sometimes quite radically alters — a short story written by Wells: The New Accelerator, The Queer Story of Brownlow's Newspaper, The Crystal Egg, The Remarkable Case of Davidson's Eyes, The Truth About Pyecraft and The Stolen Bacillus.
