Pirate Islands

I first saw Pirate Islands one day when I had gotten up early and decided to veg out on the couch watchin cartoons. It was the last show on the Foxbox so I was a little tired of cartoons and glad for the humans. I was even more glad when I saw an extremely hot specimen of human. Oliver Ackland is his name and driving me crazy must be his game because as soon as I saw this cute boy I realized I was going to have to watch this show A LOT! Which is exactly what I have done. I have done my best to record shows I wasn't home for but I've missed some. I really hope they will put out a season dvd or tape. I know I'd buy it. Of course Oliver (0r Mars as he is in the show) isn't the only reason I watch the show. It has a general fun quality to it. Also, it is fun just to throw yourself into something that is just childish enough to let you have fun but not so bad that you sit there in utter disbelief. I guess to sum up Pirate Islands I'd have to say that Mars is cute, the plot is inventive, and the dialogue funny. I wish I was an alien so I could give it more than two thumbs up :)!

Well, i don't know about you, but i have watched this show twice already!!! Apart from the fact that Aukland is hot, the thing i love about this show the most is the crazy and creative characters they come up with. I love Blackheart the best, he's so angry and really needs to get a life. Anyway, i'm not really that into Kate, Mars is more fun. I never watched the last episode and am so frustrated because i was looking forward to it so much! I am 16 and i love this show! actually i loved all Jonathon M Shiffs work. Ocean Girl was another of my absolute favorites. You could be any age and still watch Pirate Islands, anyone who thinks differently is silly.

BRING ON SEASON TWO!!!!! :D

I'm not gonna cry if I miss an episode of this... ok... I do timer record it if I think I'll be away :D!!

Okay, so the story is a little far fetched... make that VERY far fetched... a special mention HAS to go to the whole mobile phone working in the islands when there isn't a sattelite to begin with.

Nevertheless, I find that I'm actually quite anxious to watch this little show everyday weekdays, I KNOW it's supposed to be a children's show... I'm 21, and loving it... a major part is perhaps... no, DEFINITELY... Oliver Ackland (Mars), the boy hits us with a couple dose of charisma and charm and I'm glued to the TV set, though the boyish smile he flashes now and again definitely doesn't do any harm!

Its not meant to win Emmys, or even maybe Logies... But once you get pass the plot holes and illogical ... erm... logics, that are often applied, and watch it for the bit of fun it's supposed to be, I think its a show that could be enjoyed by all, good bonding time with the little kids and the mums/dads, a little eye candy for the girls... MAYBE not go so well for brothers or single men in their mid 20s and older though... :)

I know I shouldn't watch it (being after all 16 and above kid's shows) but there's something about this show that makes it really fun to watch. Maybe it is the sense of fun that pervades it, and the fact that most of the kids are good actors and there is real tension between Kate and Mars. Plus the idea of being in a computer game is fascinating.

I'm watching my old videotape of the show now...this program is so minty! me n my sister is are like in love with oliver Auckland or whatever (mars) and i love the assistant of the leader pirate guy (dougall) coz hes so random and funny! anywho I'm getting into the pirate fever now coz of pirates of the Caribbean and this show plus the latest fashions at supre and glassons remind me of pirates! my favourite quote of the whole series is when mars and Kate come back from the river all wet and stuff and the little sisters all like: what happened?! and the girls like: nothing... and mars is like: ...much!! i couldn't stop laughing and my bestie loves it too. anyways even though I'm like 15 this show is waaaay addictive and to tell you the truth i enjoy watching it more than season 3 of the oc...and thats like big for me coz I'm a total OC fanatic.
