The Tribe season 1 part 1 dvd set


As I mentioned in my last review I got hooked on this TV show back in the early 2000s. Well up until recently it wasn't out on DVD in region 1. Thankfully Shout Factory has corrected that.

This set covers the first 26 episodes of the first season. We start off with Amber and Dal making there way through the destroyed city and heading out the woods to try to have a better life. They end up running into some very young kids and through some stuff find their way to a old shopping mall. Here they meet Jack who has started living in the mall. Slowly this group of various kids and teenagers form their own tribe. And they do whatever they have to to survive.

When describing this show to people that have never heard of it I always tell them it is a weird mixture of Mad Max and Degrassi. Sure this is a teen soap opera of some sorts. But it is also a post apocalyptic show. And I love post apocalyptic stuff. I like how the show covers some subjects that until recently were not covered in most USA based shows for teens. Now I will admit that some of the acting isn't that great. But the atmosphere of the show more than makes up for that. The Tribe Season 1 part 1 DVD gets a A.
