Sheena is an action-adventure television series that premiered in 2000. The show is based on the comic book character Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, who first appeared in 1937. The series follows Sheena, a young woman who was orphaned as a child and raised by a tribe in the African jungle. Sheena has a special connection with the animals and uses her skills to protect the jungle and the creatures that call it home.

The pilot episode of Sheena introduces us to the main character and her world. We first meet Sheena as a young girl living in the jungle with her parents. She is out exploring when she comes across a group of poachers who have captured an elephant. Sheena tries to free the elephant but is caught by the poachers. Her parents come to her rescue, but in the process, they are killed by the poachers.

Fast forward to the present, and we see Sheena as a grown woman living in the jungle with her tribe. She has taken on the role of protector of the jungle and has become a legend among the local villagers. We also see that Sheena has a unique bond with the animals of the jungle, who seem to trust and obey her.

The episode's plot revolves around the arrival of a group of tourists to the jungle, led by a man named Cutter. Cutter claims to be a naturalist but is really a poacher looking to capture a rare and valuable white tiger. Sheena and her tribe are suspicious of the tourists and believe that they may be up to no good.

As the plot progresses, we see the tourists become increasingly sinister in their actions. They capture several animals and set traps for others, including Sheena. Sheena tries to stop them, but she is outnumbered and outgunned.

The climax of the episode comes when Cutter and his men capture the white tiger. Sheena, with the help of her animal friends, stages a rescue mission. She manages to free the tiger and lead it back to safety, but not before a thrilling chase and battle with Cutter and his men.

Despite being a bit cheesy at times, the pilot episode of Sheena is enjoyable for fans of the adventure genre. The show has a unique setting in the African jungle, and the character of Sheena is a strong and capable hero. The show also features a good amount of action and suspense, making it an entertaining viewing experience. Overall, the pilot episode of Sheena does a good job of setting up the show's premise and introducing us to its key characters.
