A classic for the children of nickelodeon.
This is one of the TV shows I watched as a kid and it brings back tons of memories. The person that reviewed this before me must not know this was a TV show made for nickelodeon long before jurrassic park came out. This is a children's video in a children's section and how dare you rate it so harshly. Kids will love it, I did, actually i still do and I am going to buy it right now.

Q:How can you tell if a big dinosaur film's due out soon?
I haven't ever seen the original Land of the Lost series, but I can only assume it's better than this. Dodgy puppets, contemptable know-all kids, a cliched cavewoman and people in unconvincing costumes all battle to make this series one to forget. It was all obviously no more than a cash-in on the then soon-to-be-released Jurassic Park anyway. These two episodes, as if anyone gives a pedipalp, include a volcano, the green(!) larva of which is stopped by magic, and a rather pathetic 'knight', who looks about twelve and quite obviously isn't a real knight. There are a few good scenes, but overall this is aimed strictly at undemanding kids, and as they'll just laugh at the feeble special effects after seeing Jurassic Park what exactly is the point of this?
