I remember telling my mother that "Auntie Velma looks like Mara" (In retrospect, she doesn't look ANYTHING like her.)

My God!! Im not nuts. This was my favourite show as a kid. It did exist. I mention it to people and they're like "What? ... When?"

Thanks for posting. I loved the episode where they discovered salted meat.

Someone replied to drfunk444 and I tried to reply to their question but accidentally hit "remove" instead of "reply" - 2nd time I've done that (the other time was when Christopher Man who played Tane on the show posted here! aaargh).

Anyway, to the poster I just deleted: you were asking about the futuristic show with jetpacks, it was Ark II, if you go to 70slivekidvid (.com) you'll find info/youtube links (including link to buy that series on DVD).

@themanacting thanks!  Hadn't heard about the episodes being made into a movie, will have to check into that. Strange if they don't put them on DVD's if they bothered to re-edit for tv.

Oh man I used to love this show!!!!! :)

[jaszam]

Watched this sometime in the 1970s. Recall liking it, but it didn't last very long. 1970s TV. Those were the days ...

[dsrocknroller]

GREAT SHOW! Loved it.

Everyone was going dinasaur crazy during the 70's and 80's. This show was one of others that were on like Land of the Lost. It came on though late in the morning..and by the time this show was on...I was already ready to go outside and play football or basketball with the neighborhood kids.

used to have the board game from milton bradley. really poor game

with cards like 'no value card' skin & bones of a fish. Get ne out of this

time warp!

[MONGOOSE1ful]

Well,,it wasn't "THE FLINTSTONES"-but the people at Hanna-Barbera sure had

some unusual ideas back in 1974,,as did ABC's "Funshine Saturday"-although it

had a remarkable concept of Prehistoric survival,"KORG:70,000 BC" just didn't

have the sort of "punch" to make it as a Saturday morning series. and,,do we really

know exactly what sort of language that Primeal man relly used? even though using

Burgess Meredith as a narrator,this didn't go very far! "VALLEY OF THE DINOSAURS" was way better!

[Capt777harris]

How did this show ever get produced? When was it on?

[megashuttlecock]

DVD anytime soon , bootleg?
