Info

The Man from Snowy River is an Australian television series based on Banjo Paterson's poem "The Man from Snowy River". Released in Australia as Banjo Paterson's The Man from Snowy River, the series was subsequently released in both the United States and the United Kingdom as Snowy River: The McGregor Saga. The television series has no relationship to the 1982 film The Man from Snowy River or the 1988 sequel The Man from Snowy River II. Instead, the series follows the adventures of Matt McGregor, a successful squatter, and his family. Matt is the hero immortalized in Banjo Paterson's poem "The Man from Snowy River", and the series is set 25 years after his famous ride. The first season was very much a soap opera with several story arcs, but the primary one concerns the arrival of Matt's American nephew, who's bent on revenge, certain Matt cheated his father out of the station Matt now owns. In subsequent seasons, there were shorter story-arcs, often featuring guest stars over a few episodes, and some episodes stood entirely on their own. Stars and guest stars of the series included notables and future notables Andrew Clarke, Guy Pearce, Josh Lucas, Victoria Tennant, Olivia Newton John, Tracy Nelson, Lee Horsley, Dean Stockwell, Chad Lowe, Jane Badler, Wendy Hughes, Hugh Jackman, and Frances O'Connor.

The Man from Snowy River Audience Reviews

Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
tverkaik-20532 We just found this on our Roku...The scenery is lovely,the cast members are interesting and the plots are engaging. I wish there were more than 4 seasons. My favorite characters are Matt McGregor and Kathleen O'Neil. I enjoy a woman who can speak her mind in a classy way. If you want to watch a great drama filled with adventure and some romance...check out this series. You won't be disappointed.
nadani This film is so interesting.All the characters are interesting.My favorite character is Luke McGregor.First of all he is very good looking and of course good player.Congratiulatons to all the crew and the cast! Its so exited to watch this film,because it gather all my family in front of the TV.I sow it for the first time before two or three weeks,and i really love. The only thing i feel sorry for is about the character of Luke,because his personage is just in the first season. If anyone can tell how to get in touch with Josh Lucas,please write.I am his biggest fen and wont to know something more about him. Congratulations again for the best film you have done.Do more best films as this.
radz2682 This was a good family, which is rare. Except for a few episodes its the kind of show the whole family can watch without feeling embarrassed.I remember watching it years ago and loving it. Josh Lucas was quite obviously my favorite as well as Guy Pierce. My favorite character apart form Josh Lucas' was Danni McGregor and i was sorry there were not more episodes with her. After the first actress left, i found the new one to be a bit over the top and occasionally screechy and immature which was very different form the head-on- her-shoulders mature version played by the previous actress. Their portrayals of the same character made it seems like a completely new person and not even a very nice one. It definitely was not a Jessicas Bowman-Erika Flores situation (Dr Quinn Medicine Woman) where i liked both portrayals of Colleen equally. In this case I never warmed to the new actress.The series also got a bit stale after Josh Lucas' character's story was complete (which was the entire basis of most of the series) and his character was no longer on the show. After that it seemed to veer off track a lot. old characters left, new ones came on whom were not as easy to identify or like because they arrived so late on the scene. The new story lines seemed to be trying way too hard.All in all i loved it but perhaps it should have ended after the Josh Lucas story was complete. Another sad thing about this series is the inability to find it anywhere, even though i'm sure it has a fan following.
ALI-32 I do not believe that the series is a good one. Every time the end of the film is predictable, as "Mat" succeeds, "Danni" smiles and their enemies are all defeated.And except from that, can anyone help me how to have a short visit or chat with "Danni"? I appreciate her.
