 Tribe of the Wild

I haven't mentioned this much because there hasn't been much info. Basically Shuki Levy, who was Haim Saban's partner in music in the 80's and producer of Power Rangers. Premise: "In this sci fi action adventure series for teens, five high school friends are abducted by aliens and find themselves in an unfamiliar world where past, present and future are merged into one."

 GABRIEL MARSHALL (Cody Beverstock) - Gabriel is a handsome, charismatic, all-American athlete who is not aware of his good looks. He truly looks like a high school student, and as the football quarterback, is constantly pressured to meet his father’s expectations on the field. While his focus is sports, he’s still smart, making him a natural leader.  

AMANDA STARKS (Nisalda Gonzalez) – Attractive and athletic, Amanda is a booksmart but still sociable and popular girl. She has a tendency to hide her nerdier side, but still cares about her GPA. She has a very loving family background.

ALEX RUSSELL (Andrew Hellenthal) – Intelligent and deeply interested in the supernatural, Alex is a little withdrawn from the more popular high school social circles, but is still friendly and able to socialize with the “In” crowd. He’s a little hesitant to share his belief in extraterrestrials, but if he feels comfortable, he’s more than willing to enter detailed descriptions of his research. He’s curious and adventurous, and is someone who could have several secret admirers.  

ANGELO FRANCO (Jared Hernandez) – Angelo is the class clown who is cute, outgoing, and can’t keep his mouth shut. He’s accepted by the popular kids, but still hangs with the nerdier kids. The son of a widower, he sometimes uses humor to cover up the sadness he feels due to the loss of his mother.  He is just as quick-witted and adventurous as his friends.

KELLY GREEN – Kelly is a young, cute, All-American cheerleader, but she’s far from typical. While she is the first one to want to brush over anything nerdy or science-related and is more interested in her appearance, she has a definite emotional and sensitive side. She is quite independent and with a single working mother, finds herself either alone or at Amanda’s house most nights.
