Listonixio Fresh and Exciting

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

vaykaramba I remember as a young boy watching this show breathlessly, and in Turkey!. No wonder none of my friends in US have no idea about this show, I now realize that it is an Australian product: an excellent one. The song stayed with me, and I noticed that the lyrics are available on a web-site TV Nostalgia. I wonder if they are available online somewhere. As far as I recall the suspense was amazing, the Q character was invincibly evil. There were some innocent islanders suffering in the hands of the pirates who control the islands. IT created a sensation in Turkey. To find this one was easy, but I also remember an Italian show about some people stranded on an island. There were some evil people who created a sense of supernatural cause for several murders. A very beautiful blonde falls to the island and she tries to escape to no avail. IT was a pretty scary show. I hope I will find the track of that one too. I wish The Lost Islands will appear on DVD some time soon.

robotb9-1 The entire series of The Lost Islands is being released on DVD by a French company and will be available April 2005, cant wait. I remember watching this highly adventurous series when I was very young. It combines excitement, adventure with an atmosphere of mystery around the entire show. My favorite episode would have to be one of the last when the youngsters happen upon an old amphibious army vehicle (army Duc), restore it and eventually use it to free the villagers and themselves from the terror of the mighty "Q". It will be great to finally see this classic piece of Australian television history that was made for children but I bet many adults were addicted to it as well. If only more children's television programs were being made like this today.

ubercommando This show made it to the UK as well. I've not seen it since 1979 and yet that theme song is imbedded in my brain forever! This is the best kids tv show to have come out of Australia; way better than Skippy! A great premise, teen heroes that aren't too annoying, great villains and genuine excitement in each episode. It was also very well filmed in exotic locations. My regret is that it only lasted one series; we were left hanging in suspense as to what was going to happen. Maybe a remake is in order?

Pawlo This show centered around 5 children who used there combined efforts to take control of an island inhabited by people still living in the past. It combines the realism of what if time travel was possible. It demonstrates the kids ability to work together. Catch theme song.
