Frank Herbert's Dune is a three-part science fiction television miniseries based on the eponymous novel by Frank Herbert. It was directed and adapted by John Harrison. The ensemble cast includes Alec Newman as Paul Atreides, William Hurt as Duke Leto, and Saskia Reeves as Jessica, as well as James Watson, P. H. Moriarty, Robert Russell, Ian McNeice, and Giancarlo Giannini.
The series was produced by New Amsterdam Entertainment, Blixa Film Produktion and Hallmark Entertainment. It was first broadcast in the United States on December 3, 2000, on the Sci Fi Channel. It was later released on DVD in 2001, with an extended director's cut appearing in 2002.
A 2003 sequel miniseries called Frank Herbert's Children of Dune continues the story, adapting the second and third novels in the series (1969's Dune Messiah and its 1976 sequel Children of Dune). Both miniseries are two of the three highest-rated programs ever to be broadcast on the Sci Fi Channel.
Frank Herbert's Dune won two Emmy Awards in 2001 for Outstanding Cinematography and Outstanding Special Visual Effects in a miniseries or movie, and was nominated for a third Emmy for Outstanding Sound Editing. The series was also praised by several critics, including Kim Newman.
The miniseries was shot in Univisium (2.00:1) aspect ratio, although it was broadcast in 1.78:1.

At it's core Dune is a period piece. Feuding noble houses that could be anywhere in Europe. Dune just happens to take place in the distant future on a galactic scale.
Exactly what I was looking for ... fascinating: smoking on set, CRT camera monitors. How come this has only 425 views? :D
Totally Awesome Enjoyed it!
Between the theater and mini series productions, I have to say that the mini series was far better. The acting was first rate, unlike that in the big screen movie. Most of the characters in the movie version were overacted, especially the Barron Von Harkonnen. At least in the mini series he was more believable,
I do agree that neither version ever had a chance against the first book. There could never be enough time in any film adaptation to include all the details Frank Herbert wrote into that Masterpiece of literature. By the time the first film production was completed, I had already read the first four books in the series, and was the proud owner of the Dune tabletop game.
It's a shame so many people have ragged on this series.
I thought it was a decent enough recreation and much closer to the books than the 1984 Lynch adaptation. I value the merit of both attempts.
