Interesting! I guess the studio’s marketing for it didn’t connect with me. I’ll have to watch it next chance I get.
I remember the old series being pretty basic with a Tarzan-like plot that didn’t evolve much between episodes, which is probably why they decided to do a fish-out-of-water story for the 90s film, or so I remember. Then again, I could be confusing it with other Brenden Frasier films from around that time like “Blast from the Past” and “Encino Man”.
