Customer Reviews of Highlander The Series - Season 1

Rough Start
While I love the original movie, I'm not one of the extremely loyal Highlander fanboys (the Highlander-verse has always had a strongly loyal following), so i feel I can give an honest appraisal on this. The first half of Season One is downright awful- poor acting, weak scripts, and plot holes you could drive a broadswoard through. THings get better towards the end of the season, as some recurring characters and long-running plot threads begin to take root. Still, ther's not enough here to convince me to run out and get season 2. If you're curious about this show, I'd recommend getting this as cheaply as possible and struggle past the first few discs to get to the better stuff before rendering your verdict

Very good dvd collection ... but....
This is a very good dvd collection but the only complain I have is these dvds don't have subtitles ( neather close captions). Great tv series.

As good as the film?
I was something of a late comer to this show, being a fan of the original 1986 film, i became hooked on the series when it was first screened here in the UK in the mid-nineties, and often felt that the lead character, Duncan McLeod, (played by British actor Adrian Paul) was just a little too cold, and the first season is slow to pick up, but it does get better as the shows progress, with the later introduction of regular characters in subsequent seasons. <
> On the whole i enjoyed the series very much, with some terrific special effects, colourful plots, great flashbacks and special guests, powerful immortals and emotional pitfalls yet to come.
