I caught this show on during the wee hours of the night one weekend, and now make it a point to watch it as much as I can. The show takes place in Africa, and even though it is obvious that it is really filmed on a soundstage, the show has a good amount of variety in sets. The two male leads have a really nice chemistry and play off the supporting cast pretty well. Geena Lee Nolin is nice to look at, although she is a little boring. Did I mention she was nice to look at? I recommend this show solely on her wardrobe, and is still a very competent show otherwise. Check it out!
I watched this show at night and thought it was pretty cool.You have Sheena (Gena Lee Nolin)who can morph into animals.Shes tough,not an air head acting tough like others(Pamela Anderson).I use to watch Tarzan with my grandma and this was just as entertaining,actually more.You also had that thought of wanting to see Sheena and Cutter (John Allen Nelson)let down their guard and become a couple.I would like to see this show turn into a movie.On the big screen the action,morphing,and characters would really work!!This was an hour long show and was entertaining from start to finish.i wish they had brought in more animals like the chimp they were suppose to.Animals can make things so funny.the cast was strong and it felt to me they all had that chemistry.
First I want to say so the people trading the story line of a white girl in Africa are just tools. Sheena as a character goes way back to the 30s... Just like Tarzan. No one seems to mind that.
I used to watch the first Sheena in Black and White on TV IN THE FIFTIES... Along with Rama The White Hunter, Tarzan, Jungle Jim and countless other Saturday morning escapism shows. I like Gena Lee Nolin's interpretation the best.
She and. Cutter had great chemistry, the action was family friendly and she always held a moral high ground, especially about the sexual tension between she and Matt Cutter.
Yes the costuming and creature effects were not as good as they would be by today's standards, but taken in context, they were appropriate for the time and audience.
Look for Sheena to return to the big screen. Fans will recognize that Sheena hails from the same area as The Black Panther. Same jungle, same red healing earth, same names of some of the regions and of course... The magic of transformation into animals.
Gena was sweet, played her role a bit tongue in cheek but never played the character down or dumb. It's a fun ride. Just go along and stop looking for reasons to hate on a pretty girl in a jungle costume.

Sheena is a strong woman that can beat up most men and gets things done at the same time. I had a crush on Nolan, for sure but still a very interesting TV show for me! It more of a woman Tarzan character! I going to be buying the two season show for the fun of the episodes! Hope you understand that it about sex appeal and escapism!
The actress who plays Sheena was on Baywatch for a little bit, but I like her a lot better as Sheena. She is very smart and heroic. I don't care for her clothes though, they are very shaggy and bulky looking, like bags. She reminds me of Veronica on the TV show The Lost World, though Veronica has a better looking costume. I think both characters are more realistic than Xena (I really love Xena though), but Sheena definately lives on our planet and in our time. The show is very exciting with interesting characters. I think I would like to have Sheena's job when I grow up because I love animals and would like to save the planet like she does, but I would rather wear Veronica's clothes. I would like to be Sheena's friend and I think it would be neat to meet her. She really cares about the people she helps. I think the show is very good for all members of the family to watch because it is teaches good things, but it does have violence that some people may not like. My favorite shows are Sheena, The Lost World, Xena, VIP, Jack of All Trades, Hercules, Young Hercules, Buffy, and Cleopatra 2525 (kind of lame acting though). These are great shows. I don't like Angel or Dark Angel because they are too dark.

- TriviaBoth Gena Lee Nolin and John Allen Nelson were cast members on the hit TV series Alerte à Malibu (1989) which Douglas Schwartz was the co-creator and co-executive producer.
- GoofsSheena has been raised by Kali for roughly 20 years, in an African village, with no electricity and little if any contact with Western Civilization. Without exposure to radio or television, and without an Anglo-American role model, it is far more likely that Sheena would speak English with Kali's accent (if she spoke English at all) rather than with a North American accent.
