I can’t believe I’m the first to start a thread on this–it was all the buzz a few months ago. Okay, I can’t say much about the series yet, Adrian is getting used to his human form and is not the suave character he plays so well, but I have hopes. Besides, in this episode, he walked around in a pair a briefs, and his chest and back are everything I remember from _The Highlander_. Oh it’s good to have him on screen again (I can think of other places I’d like him [sigh], but I digress). The fight sequence showed evidence of _The Matrix_, but cheaper, but it’s not sword work, so I don’t care if it’s not great.

Anyone else catch this show? 10:00 SciFi channel–hopefully they’ll leave it in one time slot.

I saw it. I’ll probably keep watching (I just leave the dial on SciFi on Fridays—I watch it at work).

Honestly, I don’t know if I thought much of it. I think it needs to have time to find its “legs”. Adrian Paul of course is very attractive, but that’s not enough to carry a whole series! But I’ll certainly give it a chance.

I dunno, yosemitebabe. I willingly set through _Merlin: The Return_ more than once because Adrian Paul was in it.

I like Tracker. It’s been on awhile. I know I was watching it several months ago before I ditched cable. One of the last episodes I remember he had gotten used to his human form to the point where he was stepping in to sub for a male stripper at a bachelorette party.

Good to know he’s does get used to his body! I thought it was supposed to be on a while ago, but I never saw any ads for it. I caught it by accident last night, but it was the first episode, so I figured the release had been delayed. Well, at least SciFi is unlikely to cancel it until all the episodes it has have been shown, so it will be on for a while. Is it still in production?

I can’t for the life of me figure out why Adrian Paul hasn’t made the leap to movies–I’d pay money to watch him, and that’s more than I’d do for Brad Pitt.
