Steineded How sad is this?

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

itg1910 Did not know that this series was filmed at all. but since I changed from Rogers to a stilt dish,, I can see this excellent program. Living in southern Ontario, around the places where the show plays it is great to see what the first settlers must have had to live with,I really think that was a great undertaking to bring something like that to the screen.I have seen all the programs now at least 2 and some 3 times, and I enjoy them every time,It should be on CVD I would buy them, for my kids and also shown in all schools in the district. for history lessons.thanks again to all the actors to bring it so much to life.the traveler

northword To me, this is one of the best shows ever. I'm sad that it wasn't on longer & that I wasn't able to catch the original run through in its entirety due to being away at college, where there wasn't cable. However, I'm now able to see all the episodes & it's renewed my enjoyment of the show.This series featured some of Canada's best acting talent and was a real showcase for them.This show is historically accurate as well and really brought to light many of the things that pioneers had to go through in Canada's harsh, yet beautiful, landscape. It also brought forth that, despite some people holding on to class, people worked together and, eventually, most people realised that we're all the same and that we're all equal.I really like how the show treated all people, no matter their creed, race or what-have-you, the same. No one was prejudiced against, and stereotypes were done away with.This show is something that everyone can enjoy, a true family show, and that is truly lacking these days. If I was able to get DVDs of this show, it's one that I would most definitely spend my money on.

blakeney-1 This was a wonderful show; educational, entertaining, lively, well-acted, and one you could easily watch alone or with your whole family. The basic premise concerned a scottish family who emigrated to Canada during the early 1800's. The characters were sympathetic and well-rounded; the episodes were well-written and interesting, with just the right dashes of occasional humor, suprise or suspense, etc.The Campbells was one of the major bright spots for me during the 80's and I've been hoping for years that the show will come out on tape. If and when it does, I would strongly recommend it to anyone as a worthwhile viewing experience.

LSC-3 Reflects pre-confederation life in rural Ontario, Canada. I met an actress who was on one episode. She said it was like going back in time. She was a little flustered by a chicken that flew into her during the shooting! I hope it gets aired again soon. I missed the pilot/first episode and sure would like to see it!
