Don't Miss Out!, Jun 24 2004
This review is from: The Lost World: Season One (DVD)
You can't really experience "The Lost World" until you've seen it from the beginning. I'll freely admit that I, at first, found the show to be a tad weird, but I continued watching and it didn't take long for me to fall in love with Lord John Roxton...*clears throat*...uh, I mean, the show. It has action, intrigue, romance, and beautiful scenery. The characters are well developed, complex, and loveable. My personally favorite aspect of this exciting series is the at-times-strained relationship between Roxton and Marguerite Krux. From the first episode you can tell there's chemistry, but definite conflict. However, being trapped on a plateau has its excitement, also. They face many unforseen dangers all the while trying to adjust to living together. It is certainly one of the best TV series ever created!

Lost World Fun, Feb 29 2004
This review is from: The Lost World: Season One (DVD)
This is very loosely based on "The Lost World" written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. So loose that if you took away the character names it would pretty much lose all resemblance. That however does not take away from the wonderful stories and characters. The acting is quite good and the sets, special effects, and music are better than adequate. The dinosaurs may not be up to Jurassic Park standards, but they are fairly good. My whole family enjoys this series. Devout fans of the book may find it a let down, but anyone that enjoys light TV series like Hercules with Kevin Sorbo, Zena, or Mutant-X should find it fun. Even fans of more in depth series like Stargate SG-1 will probably like it. The set includes six slender cased DVDs with twenty-two episodes. It is 16 hours and 8 minutes of entertainment. The first two seasons have all the original cast. The cast includes Peter McCauley as Professor George Challenger, Rachel Blakely as Marguerite Krux, Will Snow as Lord John Roxton, David Orth as Ned Malone, Jennifer O'Dell as Veronica, and Michael Sinelnikoff as Dr. Summerlee. After that the Australian TV industry intervened with tax laws at the the end of the second season, both Ned and Veronica had to be guest stars and the series started to go down hill after that. I highly recommend the first two seasons. The picture and sound quality is good and although the set does not includes any extras it is well worth the price.
