It was an 1990s Australian TV series for kids. Unlike the American kids series... the Aussie kid series are not so antiseptic or cheery. This one was quite dark actually.

About a Time Capsule created in the year 3000 which a girl uses to go back to 2500 gets kidnapped n both the girl n the bad guy gets trapped in 1990.

Sooo any of you seen it !?

It was an awesome series... 2 parts... n actually finished with a proper ending.

 

If you haven't or don't like time travel... "screw you". :p

If you love time travel n movies like Back to The Future. You should seriously try getting this one.

I'm try to find n get the DVDs but no luck uptil now.

Good god! I remember that show! Didn't the girl have some mental amplifier thing called a transducer or something? I remember there was a guy they'd picked up form some time in between 'now' and then who was the evil guy in hte show.

 

Hehe thats hilarious, wow, i couldn't believe it when i saw your title - wish i could watch through them again though :) The Aussies had some good shows then, the original 'Round the Twist was a classic :)

When I saw you mention it on here I was hoping there'd be a torrent to go with it!

I do remember the series when it was on TV here in New Zealand -- must have been

a few years ago now.

 

NZ/AU had a few other shows that were quite good - there was one called Mirror Mirror

that also had Time Travel elements through a mirror. Kind of like a StarGate but to

different time periods in the same house.

There was also this series called SPELLBINDER... where the kids goto a parrallel world tech is gone n humankind is enslaved by this group called the spellbinders... who are basically the tech users.

Plus there's also this Canadian series called...

 

MY SECRET IDENTITY... tht was another good one. Then the movie... Flight of the Navigator.

 

Sighhh... how come they don't make good stuff like those nowadays !?

Here's a link to the THE GIRL FROM TOMORROW WEBSITE. There's info on the website on who to write about getting a copy of the video. Don't know if it'll help or not.

 

Did a search but came up empty for a torrent for this film. So...

 

Here's a link to where you can buy the video (currently out of stock) - Buy it.

Ah yes, Jerry O'Connell's fist breakout role, a classic of bad lower-than-low budget 80s camp. I remember it well :cyclops:

 

And FYI, Disney put out Flight of the Navigator on DVD a while back, AFAIK it's still in print and readily available. At least I'm pretty sure I saw a copy going for like ~$10 at Walmart last time I wandered through there.

Well I've located copies of all 24 episodes from both seasons on the edonkey network, but sources seem scarce and they look to be a mix of VCD and SVCD-quality mpegs recorded from old VHS tapes. It'll take a while to get them (anywhere from a couple weeks to a couple months I'd guess, edonkey=sloooooow) but if better copies haven't turned up by the time these finish downloading then I'll definitely look into sharing them out on the tracker.
