Earth 2 is a short-lived science fiction television series which aired on NBC from November 6, 1994 to June 4, 1995. The show was canceled after one season of 22 episodes. (Wikipedia)

When I was a kid I loved this show… I only got to watch a few episodes of it before it “disappeared” (kids sometimes don’t get that a show can be up and canceled without “finishing” the story).

Thanks to the miracle that is Netflix Watch Now (on demand) I was able to watch the entire series online with my kids. They were enthralled with the storyline and drawn in because there are two kids in the show. That really strikes a cord for kids and parents of kids alike.

The Netflix Watch Now sequence is out of order (just like on the physical DVD media) as they tack in two “didn’t make it to air” episodes at the end (which is confuses the timeline).

The series premiered on November 6, 1994 with a one-hour, thirty minute pilot episode that ran from 7:00 – 9:00PM EST (including adverts – it was later split into two episodes for syndication). The following week it moved to a regular timeslot.
