: Any thoughts in the pilot you care to share? I didn't see, so I want to ask if there were any Roxton/Marguerite action worth discussingOh yeah, there is Roxton/Marguerite action worth discuccing in the pilot! It starts already in the beginning when Marguerite offers to finance the expedition on condition that Callenger allows her to come along (of course he had no other choice). Roxton laughs at her because of that ("The Amazon area is nothing for a lady like you" - don't know if that's the right translation, something like that), well, and Marguerite's reaction? She shoots at him!!! You can't describe that really, just watch ... and laugh. Another fantastic scene is when they all have a break on their journey to the plateau. Roxton watches Marguerite taking a bath in the river, a "crocodile" attacks her (the dialog right before that is really funny) and Roxton saves her by jumping on the crocodile. Afterwards he wants to carry her back to the camp because she got hurt, but she doesn't want that at all, so he simply drops her!!! Well, there are several other scenes like that (e.g. in the treehouse- that scene is fabulous, you'll know what I mean when yoou see it), but I don't want to tell everything in advance. :-)))))))) Have a nice week!
