Mystic Knights - Die Legende von Tir Na Nog

While expecting the standard-fare Saban half-hour of cheesy

merchandising, I was pleasantly surprised by the Mystic Knights

of Tir na Nog--Power Rangers this most certainly is /not/. The

costuming is fantastically appropriate, the storylines are based

on true Celtic legends, and the actors are a refreshing change

from the normal appearance-high/talent-poor casts Saban normally

comes up with. While the foley art leaves a little to be

desired, the choreography for the swordfighting is excellent and

a very welcome sight, considering the tendency for kids' action

shows to be merely punch-kick-jab cookie-cutter fare. My

personal kudo? Justin Pierre is not merely the used to make the

cast politically correct--Ivar has a historically accurate place

in the Kell company as a Moorish prince. This is a marvellously

well done show, and I highly recommended it to Celtic fans

I remember tuning into this when it first premiered in the fall of 1998, and finding it to be a delightful surprise. It was from the creators of "Power Rangers," and each episode followed the tried-and-true "Power Rangers" formula, but unlike "Power Rangers," it managed to capture a sense of awe and wonder about it. I loved the armour of our Mystic Knights. So elegant. Just like magic armour in this kind of show should be depicted. Too bad that second season never materialized. I would have liked to see more in the Kingdom of Kels.

Yes, I realize this was not too true to Irish mythology, and that it was similar to Power Rangers...but to me, it was closer to the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers than the shows that came after.

I enjoyed the continuing story lines, and the acting. But FOX canceled it - and when they did, they left a cliffhanger. That is one of the most unfair things to do with a kids' series, but maybe they were hoping for the cult following that then develops - sometimes. This time, I guess the cult following wasn't big enough - there were internet petitions and fansites, but the show was never put back on the air.

This show is a show that is great for adults and children to sit down together and watch. The stories are a little slow for adults but they are still good. There are lots of children in my family, boys and girls, and it is hard to get them all to agree on what to watch, but they always agree with each other when they want to watch the Mystic Knights. It is a wonderful show and I hope that they will continue to keep making it. All of the kids in my family and myself think that Vincent Walsh is the best of them all. We have seen that he has done lots of other work and think that he is doing a great job. We wish all of the actors, actresses, writers, directors, and producers the best of luck and would just like to say keep up the good work.

I loved Mystic Knights from the first episode I've seen, which wasn't actually the first one of the show. Although I like the show so much, I was not satisfied with the finale. I always believed there was some other side within Maeve, which is not that bad, and that Rohan would manage it to wake this side of hers. Unfortunately the show ended bad for Maeve. And the second thing I really missed was the romantic end for Rohan and Deirdre. They'd make such a cute couple.
