The Girl from Tomorrow is an Australian science-fiction television series that first aired in 1991. The show was created by Film Australia and Chip Taylor Communications, and ran for two seasons before concluding in 1992. The show was aimed at a younger audience, and as such, it included educational and moral lessons woven into the science-fiction storyline.

The show's protagonist is a girl named Alana (played by Katharine Cullen), who is from the year 3000. Alana is accidentally transported to the year 1990 while fleeing from a group of rebels who believe she is the key to their success in overthrowing the evil government of the future. In 1990, Alana encounters a boy named Jenny (played by Melissa Marshall) who becomes her ally and helps her survive in this unfamiliar world. Jenny and Alana quickly grow close, and together they try to find a way to send Alana back to her own time while avoiding the rebels who are hunting her.

The show is separated into two distinct parts, with Alana's arrival in the past acting as the catalyst for the first half of the show. The first season of The Girl from Tomorrow deals with Alana and Jenny's initial attempts to send Alana back to the future, while the second season deals with the consequences of their actions and the changes in the present that occurred as a result of their time-traveling antics.

One of the most significant changes that occurred was the introduction of a new character in the second season named Mek (played by James Findlay). Mek is a robot from the future who is sent back in time to retrieve Alana and bring her home. Mek's arrival becomes a major plot point for the rest of the show, creating friction and tension between Alana, Jenny, and Mek. Throughout the series, the characters must learn to navigate their complex relationships and work together to ensure that Alana can return home safely.

The show's villains are members of the evil government from Alana's future. The primary antagonists are Silverthorn (played by John Howard) and his sidekick Vasco (played by Andrew McKaige). Silverthorn is a power-hungry politician who will stop at nothing to maintain his grip on the future. Vasco is a brutish enforcer who carries out Silverthorn's dirty work. Both characters are bent on capturing Alana and preventing her from disrupting their plans.

Overall, The Girl from Tomorrow is a fun and engaging science-fiction series aimed at young audiences. The show uses time travel as a storytelling device to explore issues of friendship, loyalty, and morality. While the special effects and production values may seem a bit dated by today's standards, the show's heart and charm remain as appealing as ever. Fans of classic sci-fi shows like Doctor Who and Star Trek are sure to enjoy this charming and quirky series from down under.

The Girl From Tomorrow is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (24 episodes). The series first aired on January 5, 1992.
