Rache nach Plan

When I first saw the commercials for Vengeance Unlimited, I knew that this was one program that I mustn't miss. I was right! Vengeance Unlimited was a great series with good triumphing over evil and the wrongdoers getting what they deserved. It brought to mind the old classic series "The Equalizer," but unlike the gentleman avenger Mr.McCall, Mr.Chapel really leaned hard on the scales of justice. ABC, the network which carried Vengeance Unlimited, along with other networks have gone out of the way to prop up flop programs, and defy the tastes of the viewers by canceling some great shows. Examples are Love, Sidney; Joannie Loves Chachi; Ellen Degeneres;along with countless other shows which started out as ideas that belonged in the trash from the start. I wish that Vengeance Unlimited was never taken off the air. A box set would be a distant 2nd best thing to returning to production.

Once in a while there comes along a show or movie where everything just comes together like Silence Of The Lambs, this show is one of them. It's like it was made just for Michael Madsen who was perfect casting. The show was fantastic and the writing and casting was also. The main reason it was not picked up is it was against Friends and ABC didn't stand by it as they should have but never do, the least they could have done is move it. ABC actually screwed the show and producers by hanging them up and not making a decision until the last moment, there were other networks interested in it but ABC wouldn't make a decision until the last minute and then it was to late to get it on another network. There was a big amount of people on the WB Vengeance web page trying to get it to stay on and the producers and creators actually wrote pieces on there updating the news. What a shame and what a waste of great talent and a loss for the viewing public.

This is the all-time great overlooked series that is so little remembered, it doesn't even qualify for cult status. I managed to see it on late-night TV in Sweden, and I was astonished by the quality of the writing. Everything about it was consistently top drawer from episode one, unlike virtually every other great show I can think of. No wobbly, awkward start here.

Some series just come and go under the radar, nobody seems to take notice. What a shame that happened with this show. Don't hold your breath for a deluxe DVD box set, but that's exactly what "Vengeance Unlimited" deserves.

It is super great awesome fantasticorama! I mean that. Super and awesome and fantastic. Michael Madsen is great and all the episodes of the TV show were almost as good as the movie!

I could not believe that they canceled this series. It has to be the worst move in television history. Just one episode would have you thinking the same way. If you never saw it, I can only describe it as a combination of the movies "The Sting", "The Grifters", "Absence of Malice" and "the Pretender" a television series. Of course I'm exaggerating, but thats how I felt about this show. I would be thrilled just to watch the reruns if the powers that be would at least allow that.
