DVD Reviews of Flight 29 Down, SEASON 1

DVD Review: G version of Lost is a winner with tweens!
Summary: 4 Stars

My 10-year old daughter happened upon the show when on a trip visiting the grandparents and loved the series. At first it snagged her attention was because it had Corbin Bleu from High School Musical and Jump In, but she soon loved the way all the characters had to work with each other and overcome differences.

Since we didn't have Discovery Kids channel at home, I researched the program and decided to purchase it for her. We sat down together to watch it and I found it overall wholesome and enjoyable. No bad language and the characters (while sometimes static and fall into the same behaviors) were able to problem-solve and "use their words" to create solutions.

It can be predictable at times and who knows what would have happened if the boy genius hadn't been along to point them in the right direction--how come so many shows have the one know-it-all character these days??--but it also teaches tolerance and patience can make friends and colleagues out the least expected people. The show demonstrates that people are more than the labels kids (and adults) so quickly use on one another.

DVD Review: A fun story
Summary: 4 Stars

I really enjoyed watching this show and I'm glad it's available in its entirety on DVD. The relationships between the kids, both good and bad, make this very watchable and worthwhile. Great for the kids and adults.

DVD Review: CORBIN BLEU!
Summary: 5 Stars

Great cast and show. The show has kids from all backgrounds in a crisis situation using common sense, coming together in a positive way to ensure their survival.

DVD Review: Lost for Kids
Summary: 5 Stars

I can't say enough good things about the series Flight 29 Down. My kids and I watched the first season on broadcast television and loved it. The cast is outstanding. When Discovery Kids decided to drop their affiliation with CBS, we anxiously awaited the release of season 2 on DVD. Season 1 finds the castaways stranded on an island after their plane crash lands during a storm. The pilot, along with a few of the kids, sets out to explore the island and the story follows that remaining kids as they attempt to set up camp near the crash site. They must search for food and water and establish shelter. A power struggle develops as various members attempt to direct the activities of the group. Themes include the development of survival skills, leadership, team building, and the concept of democratic rule. The idea of democratic rule versus anarchy is especially prevalent in season 2, which is also highly recommended.

(Parental Note: one of the characters wanders around in a bikini in a couple episodes of seasons 1 and 2)

DVD Review: Great Show!
Summary: 5 Stars

This series is a great family show. My girls (16 and 11) both enjoy the the plot line. It even has my husband and myself anticipating the next epoisode. I would recommend it!
