Was just thinking of this amazing show again when I was rewatching John Wick and saw Bridget Regan. I really miss this show a lot. Hope it can be continued one day :black_heart:.
Come on Netflix, you know you want this!
One of the best fantasy themed TV series. I liked the first season more than second though. Definitely worth a watch.
P.S
If you liked this you might like "Merlin" (2008) TV Series too.
Sehr schade das die Serie abgesetzt wurde, war eine meiner Lieblingsserien!
Waiting for season 3
Ahhh, still so sad that it ended just when it got so good (AKA badass Sister Nicci). Even though the show is entirely different from the books, I liked the direction it was taking and I just watched it as a separate (more fun) entity than the books. And Cara... Oh, Cara, I miss you... :'(
I can't believe this was cancelled, it's absolutely amazing. The fight choreography is among the best I've ever seen on television or film, it's very dark, excessively violent, the actresses are gorgeous, the ageil is the coolest weapon since the lightsaber, the story is completely original, and the dialogue is organic and perfectly executed. This is an HBO caliber show, it's a shame it was picked up by abc :/
Very amazing and clever. It deserved a tenth season.. Nice work there people, bless ya all
This show is the reason for my existence.
I really liked this show.A good fantasy series when there were not many of them.Shame it was cancelled so soon.
i can honetly say this is one of the best series i have ever watched.
ps. Fix the categories. This is NOT science fiction. And Andromeda isn't Fantasy. Stop conflating the two. Is LOTR science fiction? No? Then neither is this.
I loved this show for its wonderfully realized cinematic fantasy aesthetic photography and special effects (thanks Peter Jackson for spotlighting NZ's talent), great set design, and extremely attractive cast (main and guests), and for its campy melodrama. The choreography, photography, editing, and, importantly, tone for the action scenes were actually very good, and the characters were vibrant and compelling, in an indulgent fan-fiction-y way-- and I mean that in a good way. It was enough to engage, but not demand that you take it too seriously. Pure fantasy escapism.
The sometimes asymmetrically shaky acting from the two leads only made the melodrama more amusing to watch, but there were some genuinely good performances and compelling character arcs, too (my favs: Tabrett Bethell as Cara, the Mordsith; and Craig Parker as Darken Rahl was deliciously evil). Parker played the evil antagonist completely straight, with a subtly sexual intensity that, to me, stands out as fairly unique among TV villains, and made for a much more compelling tet-a-tet with the other Craig and the band of overly earnest, ethically nebulous do-gooders.
I remember there being some questionable narrative choices in the second season, but I remember the show fondly and wish there had been more. I've just found it on ABC's site and am starting a much anticipated re-watch.
This show is the disappointment of my existence. In that we only have two seasons to bask in the glory of this amazing cast. Even if a few episodes are definitely dragging a little, it's an overall tight story with caring characters. This is such an easy watch for fantasy fans. Go for it.
The books are better. Terry Goodkind
Saw the show before I read the books, and loved it.
Tried to watch it again AFTER reading the whole series, but I don't like it much anymore, shame...
are there any series like this one?
This is worth a watch?! I think I'll have to check it out.

This show is awesome! But way too under-appreciated :(
