    Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
    Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
    Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
    Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
    info-12388 I don't know which diety to thank, but all three seasons are now out on DVD, and I have been binge watching them and reliving my own early days as a Canadian at the same time. I loved this show. The production values were top notch, the scripts well written, the interplay between the three leads tense without being over-bearing. Dramatic when it needed to be and wildly funny when it didn't. Historically accurate in even the smallest of details, just all around stunningly executed to the point of perfection. And now I have all three seasons in full and can go back to Bordertown anytime I want, which will be pretty gosh darn often. Yay!!!
    KathN37 Bordertown, the Family Channel original show, is now available on DVD. Go to Amazon and type in "Bordertown" as your search. The DVD's are very affordable and are well done. They don't have any extra features, but who needs them for this price. This was a great show that lasted 3 seasons. It is watchable by children and adults. I am hoping that they will put out all of the episodes on DVD eventually. I wish they would put out the other Family Channel shows; Zorro, Rin-tin-tin, and Black Stallion. Although, this was my favorite and I am very glad they choose this one to release.
    ford_moose I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said by everyone else; this was a lovely series filmed in B.C. that everyone in the family could enjoy. My mother and I often watched this on the Family Channel.I enjoyed watching the characters develop and grow, which doesn't happen often enough on television.For any PTB's that are cruising, please either release it to video/DVD or syndicate it out again.
    thousandisland I was only 11 or 12 when this show was on, but I loved it and never missed it ! It was on The Family Channel here in the U.S., and only lasted about 3 seasons. It was all filmed in Canada, and so is full of beautiful forest and mountain scenery. It was a wonderful and unique take on Western life in the 1880s, set in lush wilderness instead of the dry, crusty desert of traditional western shows. The culture clash of American and Canadian characters made it special and different as well. I thought the cast was great, the stories very interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed 'Bordertown' and was so disappointed when it got the final axe in the early 90s. It's easy to see how this show paved the way for series like Due South, Dr. Quinn, and the more recently canceled "Peacemakers." There are now many episodes available on DVD. They are awesome and it is great fun to have the opportunity to see this show again !
