Does anyone remember this show? It was the remake of the original show from 1974, and used to be on TV every Saturday morning on channel 7. The show was also on Nickelodeon.

I've seen a few episodes of this version of the show back when it was first  broadcast.  I saw the first version also, also when it was first broadcast too.

I thought Scarface was cool in this show.

I did. I watched that show all the time when I was a kid. Loved it. Still do. Liked the dad, thought the monsters were scary (at the time), and thought the show was solid.

I used to watch it when I was younger. I barely remember anything about it other than a family falls into some large hole in the ground and end up in another world where dinosaurs rule. I remember a girl who was with some dinosaur and I do remember the T-Rex, Scarface.

The only episodes where something causes the dinosaurs to go nuts or something and where they think they returned home but it's an illusion and Scarface is there.

DarkHououmon,

The episodes that you mentioned were "Jungle Girl" and "Dreammaker."

looks like it's not out on dvd yet, only the original series is.

Found a german intro to the 91 series on youtube.  Can't seem to find an english intro for some reason.   The images may bring back memories.

The images brought back a lot of memories for me as I was six years old when the show first came on TV.

They're coming out with a Land of the Lost movie in 2009 apparently.

I wonder if it'll be done serious, or it they'll do it as camp or comedy.
