The 'Highlander' Discussion Thread

I occasionally tune in around midnight to see the episodes but I'm quite disappointed in Sy-Fy. I recently saw the episode Revelation 6:8 and couldn't help but notice that they cut out a lot of stuff, and it's not like the usual 'we have to make time for commercial' cuts, at least I don't think so because when the show aired on Spike TV, so far as I know it was full and in tact. Of course that episode I don't know about because oddly enough, EVERY time Revelation 6:8 was scheduled to be on Spike, something would come up and Highlander wouldn't even be on that day.

But I digress, anybody else catching it late at nights these days?

Which MacLeod do you prefer from the movies and TV series?

I say Connor.

Absolutely Conner. I refused to watch the mover when he was killed off, I still get indignant thinking about it.

Agreed, they would've done better to kill off Duncan, that'd be one less self righteous egotistical nut running around, that's what I liked about Connor, he wasn't what you'd call morally confused, he knew what he did and why he did it, and if memory serves he didn't change his mind at the flip of a switch because it depended on a situation.

Who liked Comes a Horseman and Revelations 6:8? They're about my favorite episodes, and I think that it's a damn shame that they didn't do more episodes which would've flashed back to the Horsemen thousands of years ago as they had had planned. If they would've done that instead of that stupid red eyed demon crap followed by the atrocious whole 6th season, they could've saved a lot of face on that one.

This is an unofficial poll since the question contains spoilers for those who haven't seen the episode. If you didn't see the episode Leader of the Pack from the 4th season, read no further.



Should Richie have killed Mark Roszca at the end of the episode? I say hell yes, he should've dropped that son of a bitch, he blows away a woman in cold blood because he's high as a kite, a choice HE made, and he gets to blissfully forget all about it and move on with his life and his own family never mind the one he ruined and never had to answer for? Screw mercy, go for justice.

One of the biggest wastes of time in television history, second only to the movie series' last installment, The Source. I can't believe there was never anybody reading the scripts and going 'wait a minute, no, this won't work,' whatever.
