Title: Riverworld
Product review: I had heard about the books from a friend years ago so when I saw the title on TV I immediately sat down and watched. I wasn't disappointed. It was obvious it meant to be a pilot for a series but unfortunately it never got picked up by the networks. Ashame as I think this had potential. Hopefully someday someone may retry to make a series based on the books. In the meantime I suggest you check this movie out. A modern astronaut finds himself on a beach of a strange world. The people he meets are fairly similar to what he has known on Earth but the era seems like a conglomeration of eras from Earth's past and the planet economy is centered on river travel. In order to get around he takes passage on a steam paddlewheeler. My only complaint is this was obviosuly a pilot for a series that never happened. To bad as I think this is pretty good pilot and I would have liked to see at least one complete season of it. If you enjoyed this catch "Earth 2".CA Luster
