6.5 | en | Drama

From the day two decades ago that young John Clayton's parents died and left him alone in the African jungle, he was raised by apes and has emerged as the fearless Tarzan. Captured by his billionaire uncle, Richard Clayton, the CEO of powerful Greystoke Industries, Tarzan is returned, against his will, to his family's home in New York City. Resisting captivity, he escapes into the concrete jungle of New York City where he encounters the strong-willed NYPD detective Jane Porter. Jane's perfectly ordered life is turned upside-down by Tarzan's dangerous yet profoundly untainted morality. Romantically involved with another member of the force, Detective Michael Foster, Jane is left to choose between reason and instinct, civilization and pure humanity, her head and her heart.

Reviews

kmburgess88 I loved the show Tarzan. It had a very hot looking Tarzan and a cute Jane. I feel that they should try it again or make a sequel series or something. It had a great show song and beginning. I taped the show's episodes when it was airing and I still love it. This series was actually rare because no one was having sex with someone else or anything like that; It's about something. That's what made it special.I was really sad when it ended and they need to bring it back. The subject of the show could be something longer. Maybe add some new characters or different plots. I did like the character development as the story went on. They way that Tarzan looked at Jane was enough to melt any girl because he looked at her with caring and compassionate eyes. A show is supposed make you wish that you in there with the character(s). It's supposed to make you anxious for the next episode and I know that is what this show did for a lot of people who watched it when it was on. It is still one of my favorite shows.It only lasted 8 episodes, but there could still be a lot more that the writers could have done, or can still do. The characters developed over the 8 episodes and they could seriously make this show be #1 in the future!
CPenny2003 Tarzan was a great show and I hope they bring it back. While the storyline was dark and gloomy it was exciting and kept you on the edge of your seat. You would be in suspense for days wondering if Jane is dead or just really injured, wondering if she'll leave the city with him, or if only he is leaving or if they were going too stay in the city and try to clear John's (Tarzan's) name of murder. Totally exciting and a real nail biter. If you are like me and liked this show or if you are just looking for a good show here a my suggestions: Charmed Buffy the vampire slayer AngelThese shows are funny exciting and touching.
kaos_one Ok, all in all, the show is pretty good. I mean, I'm not sure I'd watch it if Travis wasn't in the lead role, but it's not a bad show, really. I think Travis does the whole new-to-the-world thing well. The innocence he portrays is really well done. His talking parts? Not so good, but I think he'll get better with time. I hope.
XTommy I was expecting something not-so-good, but I'm really enjoying it! Despite some of the other comments here, I think the darkness gives the show a classier feel -- let's face it, the Tarzan concept could've come off very cheesy. I honestly think it comes off as more a quality show than something like "Buffy," thought it's not as witty (or intended to be). The camp is matched by the thoughtfulness, and both Sarah Wayne Callies and Lucy Lawless are great!
