I really wish this show had more fans

This was my favourite nicktoon, I loved animals and foreign cultures so it was a dream come true. I liked most of the characters too, everybody but Eliza really. It's a shame it's one of the less popular nicktoons; I'm afraid that they might not bother releasing all of the series on DVD what with the greater interest in other nicktoons. Still, season 1 is out - although to watch it in the UK I have to buy a special DVD player because it's an American "Region 1" DVD :| lol not complaining though, I'll do whatever it takes to see it again.

Yeah agree! I was shocked to see that this has such a low rating on here, it was one of my favorites!

Aw I'm sorry to hear that. Over here the season's are getting released pretty quickly. Season 1 and Season 2 pt. 1 are out and Season 2 part 2 is coming in April.

i agree I absolutely loved this ,a bit too much actually and it was so sad when it got canned the way it did. When I first watched it Eliza was my favorite character, but I am sure that was because I was about her age then. Hehe. I hope they start releasing them where you live soon.

I thought it was boring when it first came out, but I do think this show has more fans than you'd think. It was popular in the late 90's.

I wasn't that big on it when it first came out either, though now I like it quite a bit.

Same. I've actually been watching episodes over the last couple days and I like it way more today than I did back then.

I liked this show as a kid but didn't get around to seeing the movie or some of the later episodes until recently.

I've always loved animals, but this show was a catalyst in making me interested in learning more about them. I was more into nature documentaries than most kids my age, and this show also made me want to work with wild animals.
