Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

dancinglarissa Ocean Girl is about a teenage girl called Neri (Marzena Godecki) who can communicate with a Whale which is called Charlie. Neri makes friends with two boys who live in an UnderWater research community called Orca. The boys are Jason Bates (David Hofflin) and Brett Bates (Jefferey Walker) who throughout all the 4 seasons (series) introduce Neri to a load of new people and the world. Together they work out who Neri is and where she comes from, Find Neri's long-lost sister, save the world (not once but twice), and bring up some important issues concerning the world and the people in it. This show has a fun, entertaining and it also teaches you a few things all at the same time. It keeps you entertained and you always seem to want more. It was and still is a great and amazing show to watch. :)It follow Neri and the Jason and Brett as well as their mother Dianne (Kerry Armstrong/Liz Burch) (two seasons each)and her Research Assistant Winston (Alex Pinder) on some amazing adventures and meeting some amazing people. They are constantly trying to keep Neri's secret with the help of some other ORCA teenagers and protect the oceans. they constantly have to ward off UBRI, which is another research company that is after Neri and Charlie, as well as PRAXIS, which is an Alien Intelligence Agency who is after Neri........did i mention Neri was an Alien from a planet in our language 'The Ocean Planet' and it is revealed in season 4 that she is the Princess of her planet!!........ and they save Earth (and the Solar System) with the Syncronium.....When i say the Solar System i do mean the Solar System as Earth would have spiralled out of control and hit other planets which would hit other planets and hit other planets and so on and so on..... as well as in season 4 the Earth and the Ocean Planet from the 'Red Virus' which was created by Malikat a Evil person from the Ocean Planet. Once again i loved this show and i still do (I am only 15 years old at the time of writing this) and i wish that their were more episodes. i would/ have told my friends about it who also loved it and i hope you do too.Thanks :)Enjoy the show!!! :)

sunny lovett (dwtaxi) Ocean Girl is the most enjoyable and certainly one of the most intelligent children's series that it has been my good fortune to experience. Made in the time before now, when the producer's of children's TV believed in quality rather than budget, it carries well on all levels.Far more than just an "alien on earth" program. Ocean Girl deals with friendship and bullies, the environment, family and life. There is little call for special effects in the story lines, but those there are have neither pretensions nor inadequacies. The plots are in interesting, inventive and attention catching with a strong emphasis on the necessity of protecting our oceans.One of the most important aspects is the high quality of the acting from the main and supporting cast members. A strong attachment to the characters is easily developed and one genuinely cares about what happens to them.The strong performances and excellent visual effects lend a strong sense of realism to the tales and unlike modern programs adults can enjoy it nearly as much as their children. It is truly targeted as family entertainment, not just for children. While there are enemies to be overcome and some rather scary moments, the stories are not dark and a happy ending is always around the corner. The beautifully shot scenes of The Great Barrier Reef, the ocean and the islands also lends a sense of loveliness to the happy scenes.Ocean Girl is a science fiction program, but the language and ideas are no different from today's and the technology is mostly current, although with elements such as AI computers which are perhaps a few short decades beyond us.

alejandra I was very young back then when I watched this show, but I remember that it was one of my first TV addictions. After that followed Dark Angel, Alias, Lost and most recently Prison Break. Ocean girl was into that category somehow. It was intriguing and the audience didn't know the deal most of the times. Back then I was totally into that show. It was actually pretty interesting for being a kid's show. The plot lines were twisted and the characters were compelling. I also remember the cast changing a lot, but that kept it interesting. Also the actress that played the lead was great on that role, I wonder whatever happened to her. I would watch it any time again if I have the chance and I highly recommend it.

william-charles wenham While it's been too long since I've seen this show (I was a mere 7th grader when it was on the Disney channel), I remember this show being very intellectual for a children's primetime series. Neri was a mysterious girl who lived in the ocean (and a nearby island) could communicate with the whale. Meanwhile there was a group of scientists, complete with an underwater city that boasted a school for the teenage children. Neri befriended two of the teenage boys of the ocean city, and together they tried to help save "Charlie" - the whale that Neri was friends with. The show had it's villains - a group of scientists that were competing against the Ocean city for whale research. This is pretty much all I remember about the series - aside from the fact that i was completely in love with the complicated stories - but it was canceled shortly before it's mysteries and loose ends were finished (Neri's island was a spaceship of sorts, suggesting she was an alien; and she had a sister - and a brother if I'm not mistaken). If you get a chance to see this show in syndication sometime, trust me, it's worth your time. Then again, maybe I just remember it being my only alternative to the looooong half-hour before Melrose Place on Monday nights.
