That is a Nickelodeon show from the 90's I believe, called "Land of the Lost."

The Land of the Lost has been around a long time. Longer than Nickelodeon. The furry ape kid they hung around was named Shaka and their enemies were these alien like creatures called Lisacks.

There were two "Land of the Lost" shows, one an updated 90s version on ABC which was sydicated on Nickelodeon, and the original show was from the 70s on Saturday mornings which ran on NBC.

Yep. I remember when it first came out. I was all excited but when I actually got to see it I thought it totally sucked. The original "Land of The Lost" was tons tons better, along with a lot of the other Sid & Marty Kroft shows. I plan on getting the 70's LOTL Volumes 1 and 2 on DVD, but I'd love to see the whole series on DVD

Actually in March, Rhino Home Video has plans to release a "H.R. Pufnstuf" complete series box set on DVD and the entire first season for "Land of the Lost" sometime in Fall 2003!
