I tremendously enjoyed these reviews, while at the same time admitting to not having seen much of this Highlander oeuvre, apart from the original movie and a couple of the TV episodes. I just can't get past the ridiculously inane, pointless concept, and then there's the nearly complete lack of authenticity in any of the historical stuff, from the costumes to the names to the cultural background. I can't help but take offense at all this nonsense. I can't believe how it was so successful for so long despite that. PS: And the same thing goes double for OUTLANDER!
