highly recommended

A stunning sci-fi epic that re-envisions the future of mankind, this top-rated, action-packed original series is "intriguing" (Associated Press), "fascinating" (Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel) and "deep and intense" (Science Fiction Weekly)! Luke Perry ("Beverly Hills 90210," "Oz") stars as Jeremiah, one of the many young survivors of the "Big Death" that claimed the lives of every adult in the world 15 years ago. Now forging his way through a bleak wilderness fraught with danger and conspiracy, Jeremiah and his most trusted friend, Kurdy (Malcolm-Jamal Warner), are plunged into thrilling adventures that test every facet of their humanity?and ultimately the fate of the human race itself!

Jeremiah, season 1

Absolutely outstanding show! Waiting impatiently for the release of season 2 in a box. Can rent from NetFlix, but really want to own the box set. I'm really bummed that the show folded after 2 seasons though. Wish they'd bring it back.

Among the best DVDs I've ever watched

Excellent. If you liked the CBS show Jericho, you'll like this one just as much, and the acting is better.

Far too short a series run.

A very interesting post-apocalyptic (but not depressing) series from the man that brought you "Babylon 5". This box set is season one of the two season series. Each season has stand-alone stories and a season length storyline with a good wrap up at the end of the season. In other words, there is no cross-season cliff hanger. Each season is a stand alone storyline. Well written, well acted, and with interesting characters. Two-thumbs up.

Luke Perry? Who Knew?

Like many other reviewers I discovered this great show by accident browsing through the Netflix SciFi section. So 5 years after the show was cancelled I'm discovering Jeremiah and Kurdy's world for the first time. Yes, the first season is a little slow. But I've decided it's supposed to be slow. No lights, no electricity, no running water and no television. The viewer travels with Jeremiah and Kurdy at their pace (where DO they get the gas for that truck, anyway? I guess we're not supposed to ask.) Follow along with them and learn about life and human nature. Rent or buy it, but enjoy it. If I have one complaint it would be that the characters often use slang or expressions they probably wouldn't have had time to learn before thier parents died. Might they not even have their own popular culture jargon by now? Just wondering.

Not being the right age to enjoy his earlier work, I had no idea Luke Perry was such a good actor. Through season one and two he grows his Jeremiah character--often with a great deal of protest--into a leader. Jamal is also great. He's perfect in this role. Just perfect. His character also grows and matures and it's plain entertaining to watch. I have just four episodes left to watch of season two. I don't want it to be over! The addition of the new characters in season two was also an excellent decision.

The clean underpants scene had me laughing so hard I almost rolled off the couch. What an imagination. Two favorite moments: Theo discovering the hotwater and toilets in the Thunder Mountain ladies room and "When was the last time you even saw a pair of underpants, Jeremiah?" --Kurdy.

Enjoy.
