BeastMaster was a Canadian and Australian co-production, largely scripted by Canadian and American script-writers, but with a number of Australian actors and with Australian directors. It followed the adventures of Dar, a warrior with a telepathic link to animals, and his companions Tao, Arina, and Kyra, as they dealt with a violent world in which tribal ties and magic were slowly giving way against the increasing power of technology.
Australian star Daniel Goddard contributed six scripts to the program, some sole authored and some written in collaboration with American script-writers. See note below for details.
