    I have been watching The Tribe on TV since it first aired in 1999. During this time I was at the same age which also the actors were supposed to be at in the first season. That was just fitting perfect. Now, more than 15 years later, I am still watching my precious The Tribe DVDs every half year. I have to rate 9 out of 10 as I do not like some parts of the story which even become annoying in my eyes after a while. Best example would be the chosen taking over the city in season 3. It takes almost the whole season to fight and beat them, which is also kind of illogic compared to the seasons before or even after where the Mall Rats fought other tribes for a few episodes and then everything was over or settled. Also the constant dying and disappearing of characters causes too many changes in cast, which was of course mostly effected by actors having to quit the show because of school. The fifth and last season has an open ending as season six was meant to continue shorty after. However the filming of season six was not supported by the sponsors anymore as they said the show was not for kids anymore. I think that is quite sad as the audience grew together with the cast.

    i love this show! i always have and always will! please give us a 6th season!!!!!!!!!. I was instantly hooked from the very first episode i saw!.what a shame channel five aren't going to commission a great show like the tribe again, what amazes me most is that they've commissioned the spin off 'the new tomorrow' which lets face it was truly awful!and not worthy of being linked in any way to the tribe!. I for one would like to see the tribe come back with a 6th series, they'd have plenty of story lines to follow, for one we aren't sure if bray is still alive! If you loyal tribe fans are still out there please please please get emailing channel five and tribe world.com and demand another season of the tribe! Always a loyal fan Lauren xxx

    I first noticed this show around episode 20 in series 1 and having the DVD it shows what is a possibilty if a Virus wiped out the entire adult population. In Series 1 it shows a group of children forming their own tribe and that they want to create a better world different to the current one in hich tribes fight for food, territory and slaves. However after Series 2 it begins to go slightly downhill because in Series 1 it is dangerous to walk outdoors by yourself and the fear of larger warlike tribes (e.g. Locos, Demon Dogs) attacking you. Now it is safe to walk down the street and everyone gets along but series 3, 4 and 5 have the same basic storyline of a large tribe taking over the whole city.However this is worth a watch and shows many different characters which have their own personalities and dreams.

    I bought the first series based on the rave reviews I had read. I was looking for another quality kids sci-fi show like Spellbinder or The Girl From Tomorrow. I was sadly mistaken with The Tribe as it is pure soapy with a slight sci-fi twist. The writing is mediocre, the acting is often appalling and the music sucks big time. After watching a dozen episodes I began to wish the virus had taken the kids out as well. I find it hard to believe that this series has managed to survive five seasons whilst quality productions such as Firefly only managed 14 episodes.My advice is if it comes on your TV, change channels.
