Call of the Wild-Complete Series Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I saw this show when it was originally shown on The Animal Planet. I believe it was their first drama series, but not positive. The show isnt actually the same as the book Call of the Wild, but is an old fashioned western type series like some of us oldies used to watch as kids. Miles is a 15 year old boy with his mother and stepfather, John Thornton. They moved to the Yukon where John Thornton and his wife run their own store. John was a hero back in the days before he married and still is. The story centers on Miles trying to become his own person outside of the shadow of his stepfather and of his adventures with his dog and other characters from the town and strangers as they come in. Some of the shows were humorous and some serious....you slowly got to learn more about each of the characters throughout the series and all of the scenery is breathtaking. There are a lot of good scenes with John Thornton and his wife and she was one of the first career women. In one scene a man tells John and his wife that when he comes back he'll take him up on that homecooked meal he promised and Mrs. Thornton quickly remarked that as soon as John learns to cook then he can offer the homecooked meal. It's too bad it ended after only 13 episodes, but what a treat to have it all on dvd.
