Crusoe

The right story, the good performances. the flash backs . and the humor. few virtues of a serie who could be defined as decent in the sense of old fashion work. because it is not one of serie proposing eccentric new perspectives about a classic book. it is not one of series looking for impress. it represents a good example of well crafted serie. using original lines, proposing smart questions about contemporary problems. being useful. a serie for entire family, embroidery of beautiful performances, adventure in old fashion style and wise pledge for fundamental values.

It's a good enough family series.

A bit clichéd pirates, shipwrecked sailors, treasure Island.

Tough nut girl pirate is the real brains whilst the men are a bit dim wits.

Quite good fun.

This is a great series and I'm annoyed that I never knew of its existence when it was on the air. It is one of many that could have done well but ignorant executives of these networks again sabotage a good series because they think they know what people wanted. They gave it bad time slots and little marketing.

The series has many great actors we all know from other great series and movies. In additionto the big obvious names they also have actors from shows and movies like Black Sails and Pirates of the Caribbean. The she show was out in between the great success of Pirates of the Caribbean. Yes there are some cheesy parts at times or not that great of extras, but what show doesn't. The story line is great and all of the main actors are good. It pulls you in and gets you vested fast and keeps you entertained.

Its been too long so no matter the love it gets thanks to streaming we will never get a season 2 and that is very saddening.

Stuck at home on a Friday night, I saw a trailer for this way back in the summer and thought "oh this is gonna be sweet!!!!" so I popped the popcorn and began to watch it. The second the character Robinson Crusoe started talking, I thought "What the hell? Is that supposed to be a British accent?" Phillip Winchester did terrible, I thought, and the Friday character wasn't very interesting either. The pirates sucked. In all, the acting is god-awful. I felt like the whole time i wanted to just scream at them to get off the set. Hopefully, throughout the season, the acting and the plot will be more sophisticated and enjoyable.

If you like this kind of thing, you'll like Crusoe but you have to get over the "cheese".

Its predictable, and the acting isn't the greatest.

The sets are incredible.

All of these things can be said exactly the same for Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (which I own the first season on DVD so I obviously like it) and Xena: Warrior Princess.

Since I liked both those shows, I guess it remains to be seen whether I'll like it for this one.

I find the show passable, and amusing if you're looking for something light and fluffy thats obviously not meant for anything serious.
