I saw the movie when i was in high school and i was impressed but I think this show was more like Hercules or Xena than the Beastmaster.First Dar was the long lost son of a king not a lone survivor of a tribe.They make Dar to be more of a wanderer than a warrior in this show.Next I think Marc Singer should have reprised the role.Now I know he's getting too old but he was much better than this Australian guy they chose to replace or succeed him with.Singer did do a good job with his role in the last few episodes and that's the only part I like about this show .Next one of the ferret's died with Rip Torn in the first movie.Sure this Daniel Goddard has some talent and is a promising actor but this role is not for him.Next hat happened to Kiri from the first movie.I wish she would make a guest appearance played by Tanya Roberts of course.Also whatever happened to Tal,I wish we could have seen him make at least a cameo appearance.Finally the symbol on palm of Dar's hand isn't the same symbol as in the movie plus it's on the opposite hand in the TV series.I do however think it was better than most reality show that are on nowadays and give it credit for following the novel a little more than the film though.Word of advice watch this show if you're bored.
