Of course. Too bad Connor only appeared in the first episode and the endgame movie.

Two thoughts about the Highlander TV show

1) Xavier St. Cloud was great
2) I'm glad they killed off that lame immortal kid who was constantly hanging around Duncan. I think his name was Richie or something. It was even funnier that Duncan did it himself, on accident, no less!

Duncan seems too self righteous compared to the others.

Methos is where it's at... the most realistic of the bunch.

Dude seen some shit.

Highlander was awesome. In the pre-internet days I remember my dad and I reading the tv guide and getting up at like 2am to watch reruns of episodes we hadn't seen yet. I still think of the show every time I hear that "Dust in the Wind" song, they always played that with a montage whenever a regular character died.

Duncan was a sanctimonious bastard, but the show threw it in his face sometimes so it was ok. The 4 Horseman mini-arc was the best, but there were tons of other good episodes. The lead singer of The Who was pretty good, too, Hugh Fitzcairn. Methos, too. The sword fights got pretty damned good past the first season, too.

He wasn't full immortal for awhile until the shoot down episode.

Too bad he got cocky and batshit crazy.

Also wasn't Duncan possessed from a quickening from a extremely evil immortal ?

Yeah, the Evil Duncan 2-parter was great. Adrian Paul chewed all the scenery. That wasn't when he killed Richie, though, that was when some Highlander 2 type immortal was fucking with his head.

He was actually a pretty regular character early on, he was in way more than one episode. Joan Jett and some other musicians were villian of the weeks. Daltrey could actually act, though.

Put on the last great Super Bowl Show.

The Who's 9/11 tribute concert was great too.

Yeah, Highlander was great. Too bad the last movie, Highlander: The Source was such a steaming pile of shit.

It wasn't even an immortal. It was some ancient spirit or something.

Adrian Paul does a fitness, basic sword training, and choreography program called The Sword Experience. I attended the one in Carbondale Illinois. He was a really cool guy and it was a fun experience.

Didn't they have some big deal sword trainer for the show to coach the actors so they didn't look like shit ?

I also read where Miami Vice had police trainers come and teach the actors to use their guns properly to not look like shit.

They probably did early on for everyone and for the later seasons for the actors who didn't do tons of sword fights. Paul himself had a martial arts background going into the show but that doesn't necessarily translate to sword fighting.

Must have been a licensing issue because when I watched it they always used Queen's "who wants to live forever"

Duncan might have come off that way I guess, but always he tried to do the right thing, even when his unique circumstances made that almost impossible.

Theres a few good ones in the first two seasons, but seasons 3-5 is the good shit, especially season 3. Almost every episode that entire season is gold. The Kalas arc was the defining era of the show...a good arc by itself, and introduced and laid groundwork for lots of stuff beyond. Fitzcairn and Methos were both introduced during it and Amanda got alot of good stuff. Peter Wingfield was perfect as Methos.

Loved Highlander....

My 8 year old nephew was named after him. He got to meet Adrian Paul a couple years ago and had his photo taken with him.
