I never considered this, but in retrospect it's really interesting that Ebony organized this gathering, she really seemed to want some sort of cooperation between the tribes.
The tribal gathering episodes are so amazing, they really give you a broader sense of the world the show is set in. The danger, lots of crazy kids running around (love the little girl who tells Cloe "I know where your mummy is"), but also excitement and partying, meeting people, wanting a sense of normalcy... It also makes the whole tribe a tighter unit, Lex shows concern for the rest of his group, everyone is looking out for each other even if they squabble. Then this amazing diversity, seeing different tribes sparks all sorts of ideas of how other kids are living their lives parallel to the Mall Rats. Plus the beautiful beach scenery. I could go on and on... Bottom line, I really enjoy these episodes even so many years later.
Tai San was drilled for dancing in the competition but none of them thought to ask Jack to see the turbine in action before taking it to the gathering.
I love the tribal leaders. They are like 14-15 years old, have been without mom and dad for a whole six months and are already in full slavemaster mode.
The Tribe logic: Living in a mall filled with potentially useful stuff: "We have NOTHING to trade!" Boy talking to a girl who isn't his love interest: "HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE WANTS!" Going for a piss: "He/she ABANDONED us!" Not telling everyone where you're going: "He/she is gonna BETRAY US AND SELL US TO THE BAD GUYS!" Getting beaten up by bullies: "This is it! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!" They're all such drama queens, it's awesome! :D
Some Tribe writing RPGs even pick this up on purpose, it's actually a sort of insider. :D As, also, giving characters a random crush on Bray or Amber. xD In one of our (german) Games we have a side plotline with a pairing having a crisis and she's gonna meet Bray at the streets while he vents his spleen about the crisis with Amber. And joking around with loads of other insiders ... :D Game discussion few days ago was like: "Yeah let's do this, affecting their whole friendship and team spirit, but without the suicide plank from series 3 on!" 😂 It would have been so much easier from series 3-5 just DISMANTLING this thing!!!
My plan is to work through season 1 by the end of the year, give it a break for a few months and then go to season 2. I didn't realise as a kid how many episodes there were.
Instead of asking for a lot more time to repair the turbine, they should've asked for a piece of copper wire instead; & then Jack could've had it ready within 15 minutes. To me that would've been the most logical solution, since the Locos seem to have everything they could ever want/need & would surely be able to find a bit of spare copper wire they won't miss. If they wanted unlimited power so badly, they wouldn't refuse such a simple request. Too bad they're not very patient or negotiable, otherwise all that power could've been theirs. I guess they're getting the karma they deserve, for cheating in the dance competition! 😏
Zandra: Oh my god what happened ? Lex: I just got my ass kicked by a pack of 11 year olds Bray: What happened to you lex ? Lex: WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT YOU BEAUTIFUL AND ACTUALLY USEFUL ASSHAT !!!!!!
15:24 Loco's police car, and a frekin army Armoured Personal Carrier, but not a single firearm in this show, also i felt like i was looking at longer version of Khaleesi's wedding to Khal Drogo from Game of Thrones, just the kids version ... Also, i have been reading the comments on how Selene has belemia disease, when i saw her throw up in the sewers, for a moment i thought she was pregnant. also that whole seen with bray earlier about something that he would keep secret for her. and in much much earlier episodes, when Salene was bragging to Amber something along the lines of "Kissing thats not all we did" so yeah, im probebly wrong she isn't pregnant and this is part of her decease
They can't hire a whole bunch of teens to play every single character for every episode ever. New Zealand is only so big. There's a limit on acting teens there
Adding on to what Benjamin said, any bodies that were lying around were burned. Anyone who has or died from the virus was burned to keep it from spreading.
Also when the virus struck Trudy had only just fallen pregnant. By the time season 1 started Trudy was 9 months through. Season 1 didn't start as soon as the virus did. It was almost a year between the virus and the start of the tribe
It's weird how they have "sectors" and all know what they are and where. That's just not gonna happen. They'd refer to them as the neighborhoods they always were.
I've thought that too. The only way I can explain it is that, before the adults died, the government organised the city into sectors as a way of trying to control the spread of the virus. But even then I suspect the kids would still revert back to neighbourhood and suburb names.
They can still grow old, and the Virus hasn't been active for a while so they can all live longer. Like most of the Demon Dogs who are mostly young adults.
@@hazza3 spoiler!! although in later episodes, we see that when the teens become a certain age, they too contract this virus which killed the adults. The virus isn't dead, just dormant in the kids
Man this shows addictive , just as much so as back in the day
I never considered this, but in retrospect it's really interesting that Ebony organized this gathering, she really seemed to want some sort of cooperation between the tribes.
with Ebony there is always an agenda for her personal benefit with almost everything she does
She probably wanted to become leader of all the tribes. She'd do anything to get the power even make peace

The tribal gathering episodes are one of my favourite stories lines from season 1
Ebony..."What's so special about this Dal anyway.. Can he breakdance?" *dies laughing*
I can't get enough of this show!
Tai San was drilled for dancing in the competition but none of them thought to ask Jack to see the turbine in action before taking it to the gathering.
Just realised The Tribe did the “power is power” lesson before Game of Thrones!
16:36 her face and the way she said it just gave me goosebumps, she was extremely concerned for her close friend.
Beth Allen is such a great actress
I love the tribal leaders. They are like 14-15 years old, have been without mom and dad for a whole six months and are already in full slavemaster mode.
Right😂
IKR
I loved the Tribe. Can't believe how long ago it was..
When Ebony called Amber little lady 😩😂💀
Jack: knowlegde is power...
Bray: power is power
i wonder if game of thrones got that line from here..doubt it tho LOL
They completely stole it from here.
Game of Thrones is a book, you know that right. It's been around since the 80s. Plus the creator is an Asperger's male. So he reads....
@@chayacarney5873 so has the tribe sweetie. Game of Thrones is shite anyhow compared to the tribe js.
I'm too tired to make a constructive comment. I'll just say the tribe is awesome.
I liked to read your constructive comments.
The meeting of the tribes reminds me of the meeting of the gangs in the 70s film the Warriors.
Zandra is a stooge, they were standing there talking about how they needed a copper wire, EXACTLY LIKE THE ONE ON HER FINGER...
+EpicMRPancake i like her top :p
Or those circles on tai sans head
I really miss this show! Thank you so much for uploading.

Schattenvolk Official Ooh, if anyone know an English Tribe Rp, hook me up. Sounds like a fun dramatic time
When Glen said “I learned that on day 1” I know they whooped his ass 😢
lmao
Definitely 😂😂😂
Love how they have those random green squiggles on their foreheads as their tribe symbol lol
SHIRTLESS LEX IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS EPISODE I THINK YES
My plan is to work through season 1 by the end of the year, give it a break for a few months and then go to season 2. I didn't realise as a kid how many episodes there were.
Glenn's acting... holy shit.
8:55 UUUUNLIMITEEEEED POWAAAAAAAAARH!!! :D
The Tribe was a low budget of game thrones and big inspiration to Game of Thrones
thank you for uploading this!! more! more! more!!!
Glenn is so scary D:
Looks like Glenn got his revenge on lex after lex abandoned glenn for getting beat up badly by the locos.
Wow those „kids“ at 06:09..😂
Awesome episode

My favourite episode
Zandra: Oh my god what happened ?
Lex: I just got my ass kicked by a pack of 11 year olds
Bray: What happened to you lex ?
Lex: WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT YOU BEAUTIFUL AND ACTUALLY USEFUL ASSHAT !!!!!!
if only Dal was a bit older
Has anyone noticed that Ebony is wearing the same ear rings that Ryan gave to Zandra?? I wonder if she traded for them? Lol
Or maybe they just happen to be the other pairs that Ryan couldn't find to the earnings he gave zandra lol
15:24 Loco's police car, and a frekin army Armoured Personal Carrier, but not a single firearm in this show,
also i felt like i was looking at longer version of Khaleesi's wedding to Khal Drogo from Game of Thrones, just the kids version ...

so yeah, im probebly wrong she isn't pregnant and this is part of her decease
Not USA
Are those not adults beating on the drums? If not, they must have gone through puberty as 8.
Chavali I think it's just the make up making me seem old
They can't hire a whole bunch of teens to play every single character for every episode ever. New Zealand is only so big. There's a limit on acting teens there
Haha 🤣 so true - they look so old!
I don’t think I would have survived I’d be a slave 4 sure 🤕or at least be hiding in forest or city being irrelevant AF
Sam Wells this show came out in 1999 I was 9 years old if this happen in real life around that time I would be dead
Starr Child Can you imagine being nine and suddenly the worlds hit by a pandemic the wipes out the entire adult population
Starr Child how bad was it?
Starr Child dame bro that’s sucks
Starr Child I’m sorry... 😞
if the adults died where are there bodies this is 1 confusing series i must say hahah XD
Adding on to what Benjamin said, any bodies that were lying around were burned. Anyone who has or died from the virus was burned to keep it from spreading.
on top of that.. u don't see any of the kids chilling in houses.. I'm pretty sure they left their parents bodies there
Also when the virus struck Trudy had only just fallen pregnant. By the time season 1 started Trudy was 9 months through. Season 1 didn't start as soon as the virus did. It was almost a year between the virus and the start of the tribe
Remember when zoot died, Amber said the graveyards were full, they're in the cemetery
@@starrchild4928 was literally about to write this very statement
I just now actually saw what kind of shirt Lex is wearing...XD
Awww ryan ☹
It's weird how they have "sectors" and all know what they are and where. That's just not gonna happen. They'd refer to them as the neighborhoods they always were.
I've thought that too. The only way I can explain it is that, before the adults died, the government organised the city into sectors as a way of trying to control the spread of the virus. But even then I suspect the kids would still revert back to neighbourhood and suburb names.
Is Jackyl Leader wearing the red leather jacket Ebony wears later? She killed him or something?
Why are they burning the money? Regardless, it's money!
currency has no value but what we humans give it. in a societal collapse, paper money would be worthless except as kindling ✌🏽
Money is only worth anything if people are willing to give you something for it. Otherwise it's just pieces of paper
Best Jacket in the series? KC's
It's weird how gross it is seeing saline eat 🤢🤮
I feel more sorry for her than disgusted. It's still an eating disorder and there's much pain behind it.
@Peter Fawkes *Bray. Brady is the baby
What was this episode about?
A few things, Freedom. :) #KTDA
Why are you excited about that?
I'm too old to rewatch can't get into it seems so stupid, from Adults view
That's not glen
I thought all the adults were dead... why are they beating the drums... :\
They can still grow old, and the Virus hasn't been active for a while so they can all live longer. Like most of the Demon Dogs who are mostly young adults.
