    Multi-Everything!

    Amazon is such a great show because of its vast diversity in characters, plot, and appeal for all ages and both sexes..The "survivors" each have their unique persona, and as a group they have such great chemistry on screen. I personally like the Native tribe the best, although I know so many Amazon fans prefer The Ghost Tribe because of certain "nice-looking" actors!! The natives have such great costumes, and they speak the language so convincingly..and they really do help add some spice to the diversity I mentioned. And of course, the set is beautiful. It's a change from the usual sit-com apartment or coffee shop. Congratulations Benchley! It's a wonderful show!!

    Lost influenced by Amazon?

    I can't help but notice that the new hit show Lost seems to be borrowing a lot of elements from Amazon. In Amazon a plane crashes and the survivors eventually meet up with a race of people who are the descendants of the survivor's of a centuries old shipwreck. Last week the black rock in Lost turns out to be the name of what appears to be a wrecked galleon. My guess is that "the others" that the French woman is warning them about are going to be related to the passengers on the Black Rock. Peter Benchley's work seems ripe for picking these days with the new movie Into the Blue starring Jessica Alba and Paul Walker being HEAVILY influenced by The Deep.

    I thought it was cool...

    I saw the first episode last night (in Toronto we get it later) and I thought it was really cool. It was entertaining and interesting. The crash scene was done really well and the sound stage is absolutely amazing. I am kind of concerned about how they're going to drag on the plot line throughout an entire series without repeating too much and without making it another Gilligan's Island. We'll just have to watch and find out. From what I've seen so far, I give it an A+.

    Great show!

    I love this show. Amazon is one my my favorite TV shows.

    I would like to see continuation. I know there was script of 2nd season but only few people saw it :(

    My best character is Karen. I would like to know what happen with her after last episode... I hope she will survive.

    I like idea of Chosen and Morag's cannibals :) Great idea :) My best episode is "Escape" , "Home" and "White Which". These episodes are very thrilling. Hmm.. I wish Mr. Peter Benchley wrote about ending of this show... I wish... Doeas somebody have e-mail to Mr. Benchley? :)

    I like shows and movies about survivors and castaways. I also like LOST, Blue Lagoon, Castaway, Robinson Crusoe :) Amazon is the first show not about island.. but about Amazon rain forest :)

    Great & Original Series That Inspired 'Lost'

    "Amazon" is one of my favorite series. I was shocked when they canceled this awesome TV show. It had a great story line and the acting was wonderful. Not to mention the fact that jungle atmosphere looked so realistic. I'm sure, this series inspired Lost in many aspects but I still prefer 'Amazon'.

    The final episode was kind of weird but I guess, they just planned to make season 2.

    C.Thomas Howell, Fabiana Udenio, Carol Alt, Chris Martin and other actors did a great job here.

    "Amazon" should have been a big HIT!!!
