    I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

    It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

    It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

    I give this show a 9 only because some are better than others. It is a series after all. Thanks to Roku we are able to subscribe to Acorn.TV which is all about British television and movies. Coming from Germany the regular Hollywood fare leaves much to be desired. Unlike in the UK and in Germany, here everything is over dramatized and sensationalized. This show as so many is refreshingly real. Emotions of joy and sadness are often displayed the way it would be in real life too without adding or taking anything away. Over all Wild at Heart is a show as refreshing as they come. What is also surprising that certain things do happen with the main characters that are so uncharacteristic for American shows. Without giving anything away it is what not everyone would expect from daily American TV entertainment. I give foreign movies a thumps up anytime.

    Mr D.Stewardstone and Miss H.Mills pull "Wild at heart" from unacceptable sentimentality to perfectly acceptable sentiment.It is not - nor does it set out to be - cutting edge drama.Most of the performers are - to put it kindly - of the journeyman level,standard Weekend TV material,happily earning their corn then moving on. Since "Daktari!",Africa has been a happy hunting ground for programme makers wishing to top up their tans and keep their ratings nice and high. Picturesque landscape,exotic animals and careful post - colonial attitudes,beautiful sunsets,rainbow nations...what's not to like? Perhaps it bears little relation to real life,but many people have had it up to here with real life and want a break from it now and then. "Wild at heart" is ideal for them and for me. Vet Danny Trevanion(Mr S.Tompkinson,lugubrious and fey for the most part,takes his family to South Africa for a new life on a Game Reserve owned by Anders Duplessis (Mr D.Stewardstone,hugely enjoyable whilst chewing the scenery). Er,that's about it really. Visited by those two impostors triumph and disaster most weeks,a 60 minute episode gets enough animal action to satisfy even a picky viewer,although the story lines are often a little banal it is usually good natured enough to retain interest. With the arrival of the marvellous Miss H.Mills it all moves up a gear as she effortlessly sneaks away with every episode she graces. Good family entertainment doing exactly what it says on the tin.

    Wild At Heart Was Absolutely Brilliant In The First Series. Moving, Drama And Cliffhangers Were Perfectly Acted And Planned Out. Series 2 Was The Same And Again Provided Everything You Would Expect From This Type Of Show. Series 3 Was A Little Weaker But The Last Episode Was Brilliant, Even Though They Killed Off Sarah Trevanion (Amanda Holden).But To Be Totally Honest The Show Hasn't Had The Same Sort of Spark As Other Series. When The First, Second And Third Series Were On I Was Hooked. But Now I Rarely Watch it. It Isn't The Same Anymore.I Suppose The Drama Is Still There But The Feel Of It Isn't. The Only Other Good Thing Is The Superb Acting From Stephen Tompkinson (Danny Travanion) And Deon Stewardson (Anders Du Plessis). Olivia And Evan, Who In My Eyes Held The Show Together, When They Were Young Were Adorable And Very Well Acted. But As They've Grown Up The Show Has Fallen And Fell Apart.Im Sorry Wild At Heart But Now It's Isn't Really Worth Watching. Sorry.

    When Wild At Heart first came on T.V. I was like "What is this??!!" But then I watched the first 3 episodes and I just fell in love with it!! It is about a British family that goes to Africa to tie up some loose ends. The father of the show is a veterinarian and what do they have no shortage of in Africa (Yet)? Animals!! Now this premise may sound slightly strange, nonetheless it is about the family and the various forces that can and sometimes do happen to help or hinder. It will make you laugh and will probably make you cry. This series is in it's 5th season now and it is truly a refreshing television show!! If you cannot see it in America on T.V. try Netflix or Blockbuster. This is one series that you will truly fall in love with!!
