The Electric Grandmother (1982)

I'm going to be treading on a lot of people’s childhood with this review, but have no fear, I'm a fan. It's based on Ray Bradbury's short story 'I Sing the Body Electric' from the book (1969) of the same name.
A family in need of love gets something that might fit the bill in the shape of Maureen Stapleton, but you can’t please all the people all of the time…
It’s a decent slice of sentimental Bradbury pie that will reacquaint you with your emotions and maybe even birth a tear or two in your eye.
It was also adapted into a Twilight Zone episode twenty years previously (S3 E35), but unfortunately I've not seen it yet.
