Flight 29 Down

Flight 29 Down seems so familiar to me because I'm from Hawai'i and looking at where they filmed it reminds me on when I actually swum there. And I use to camp there with my family. It was great! Anyway as I watch the show I see how the director uses the beautiful landscape of Mokuleia. He could develop the story from just the place where the kids are stranded. And the story line is great. But what actually got me to watch was when I read the newspaper. It said a kids show filming. I found that Hawai'i shots a lot of shows and movies here and that it does make it feel real as if we were there. The actors must have had fun filming I mean even I find something new to do here. But I live here. So I hope that Flight 29 Down will last a long time before going off air.

This is the best show that ever hit the earth. I'm not allowed to watch Lost, and this is pretty much the kid version and I really love it!

I have three things to ask: 1. When is a season 1 DVD coming out? 2. When does season 2 start? 3. I still don't understand Lex. What is his secret? Why is he so smart?

Jackson is my favorite character because he is very mysterious.

The worst character on the show is Eric. He is annoying, dumb, and the meanest kid there. He shows people's secret to other yet he wants his own privacy. Why should they give it to him?

Whoever thinks this show is totally lame is wrong!

"Flight 29 Down" is an excellent family show. It's sort of a mixture of "Survior", "Lost", and "Gilligan's Island". This series focuses on seven of the eleven passengers of the crashed plane 29 DWN. It is about their trials and how they cope and survive until rescue comes; if it comes. I'm not that great at explaining how awesome this show is in a nut shell so this is a description from a webmaster named Gwen "This show focuses on 7 of the 10 teenage survivors of a plane crash. They're all from LA but not all of them are friends. Their plane lands on some island in the South Pacific. 3 of the teens and the pilot go off in the jungle to explore it leaving the other 7 to worry about setting up camp and finding enough food and water. They have a radio but it is a long time before they get any contact with anyone. Each episode takes place within 1 or half a day of them being on the island. Drama occurs between the castaways revealing their insecurities, crushes, egos, and social problems. Surviving becomes more than just finding enough food and shelter. They eventually become like a family, having to learn to live and work together." Also here is my own description of each of the main characters:

-Nathan: Nathan is Mr. Popular. Captain of the football and track team, he feels he can do no wrong being that he's an experienced Boy Scout. Having been the class president for the last few consecutive years, Nathan feels the need to take charge of the odd band of cast-aways, but not if his rival has anything to say about it! Nathan soon finds out that doing things for scout points and badges is completely different than real life.

-Daley: Daley's fiery spirit and true sense of organization and competition earned her the position of class president. But do those things really come in handy on a deserted island? Yes and no. she makes a big effort to keep the group all on the same page at the same time as keeping an eye on her little step-brother, Lex, but always seems to fail. With her tragic family background, she has learned how take care of herself and others. But the real question is, can she ever become close to someone again?

-Lex: What does E=MC squared REALLY mean? Just go ask Lex! He's a ten year old prodigy child. when he's not studying for exams in his high school classes or adding to his butterfly collection, Lex uses his time to make his older sister and the "other big kids" listen to him. Only when they're really in trouble do they turn to him, but Lex is always glad to help even though he's preoccupied with the same problem his sister has: making friends.

-Eric: He's a low life, evil, manipulative rat. But that's why we love him! Eric's attempts to charm his crush, Taylor, plans to avoid work at all costs, and well-placed sarcasm always add comic relief to any situation. Even when faced with life-threatening situations, Eric always comes up with a remark that will have the audience doubling over.

-Taylor: Taylor is the princess of the group. Like Eric, she will avoid work at any cost and is the definition of a "dumb blonde"... or so we think! could there really be a caring human being under all that pink? If so it will need a lot of coaxing, less snide remarks by the others, and one very special person. Then maybe, just maybe, she can change the status quo.

-Melissa: If you ever wondered what an optimist is, well, here you go. Mel is a fountain of encouragement and endless patience. She always tries her hardest to make the best of a situation in the form of a compliment, a hug, or maybe even a cupcake. Think she's the perfect "good girl" right? well she was, that is until Jackson came along. Can she keep her mouth shut or will it slip that she can't stop thinking about him.

-Jackson: Jackson is basically one big question mark. Or at least he is in the beginning. Can anybody reach him? He's only been at school a few months and got in on a specialty scholarship. There are rumors going around that he's been in a gang and maybe still is. But that's just the question, are they really rumors? Due to the fact that he keeps to himself, they may never know. Is there a super big brain behind those sapphire blue eyes or are the lights on and nobody's home. Your guess is as good as their's. But despite everyone's opinions of this mysterious guy, they might just have to huddle under his street smart wing if they are going to survive. (he's my favorite!)

This show is so awesome!!! It is suspenseful, funny, and dramatic. I don't think there is another show like it. Okay sure maybe Lost is like it but still. I mean lost is for older teenagers and adults. This show is for kids and young teens. The acting is the best part. I think the best actors in this series are Corbin Bleu, Johnny Pacar, Halle Hirsh, and Kristy Wu. The rest of the actors are pretty good too. I hope this show stays on the air for a long time. I know it may not be as good as The Suite Life of Zack and Cody or That's So Raven, but it's still good. Besides most shows you see today have the same old plot. Teenagers trying to make their way through a confusing and frustrating life. Dealing with school, family, friends, and dating. But this show is both creative and real. At least give it a chance. I promise you won't regret it. I don't. I watch it almost every time it's on! 9/10 for Flight 29 Down!

I love this show it is SO great. people say its a cheap cut off of LOST but we all know its not. I love this show! Every that says it is coping off of LOST ha not around for a while. First what about Gilligan's island , survivors, the real Gilligan's island (the remake of the older version) and a-zillion others but no one pays attention to that. DO THEY? Anyway i like the video diaries heres way : 1)iget a close up of Corbin Bleu's face(aka Nathan) 2)It show how the character really feel. Some think that kids my age don't like the show i do because i seriously think that if me and 9 of my other classmates were strand on an island we'ed act the same way!
