Ava Louise Murchison (“Reacher”) stars as Jane Garcia, a 9-year-old budding environmentalist on a quest to save endangered animals. Using her powerful imagination, Jane takes her best friends David, played by Mason Blomberg (“Shameless”), and Greybeard the chimpanzee on epic adventures to help protect wild animals all around the world because, according to her idol Dr. Jane Goodall: “Only if we understand, will we care. Only if we care, will we help. Only if we help, can they be saved.”
Dr. Jane Goodall's Thoughts on Jane:

The program ‘Jane’ spreads a message of hope and reminds children that the environment is something that we all have to be concerned about while also inspiring them and their parents to make a difference,” said Dr. Jane Goodall.

I recently received access to screen Jane and enjoyed episode one, Ursus Maritimus (Polar Bear) so much, I’ve decided to finish the series with my family. We all love animals and feel-good, wholesome TV, so adding this to our family show lineup is a no-brainer. Since Jane a live-action/CGI-blended series, I feel like it will have elements we all will enjoy.
