The Librarians: The Next Chapter

I've always felt that Slavic mythology and folklore are criminally underrepresented in modern television, which is why this show instantly caught my attention. Right from the very first episode, we're introduced to an interesting Serbian/Slavic legend.

And such an interesting choice of the place to film! Belgrade, filled with beautiful sceneries and historical landscapes, is such a refreshment in the sea of shows with huge skyscrapers and the sterile corporate backdrops.

Happy to see someone is finally tapping into the vast cultural heritage the old Slavs left behind across Europe. There's a lot of stories, symbols, and forgotten lore waiting to be brought to life, and this show seems ready to explore it.

Also, I like how they stayed true to themselves in the terms of filming style, without too much use of CGI. It's giving 00s and 2014 vibes again and I'm all in!

It's ok could be better not the same appeal as the original it's just not keeping me glued to the screen-they had the Jake stone Character kick off the series and then was never seen again, Have some of the other Characters stop by,Noah Wyle is producing but not acting would like to see him in an episode or even another Movie. They could use well more know actors like they've had before the first season they had Jane Curtain and Bob Newhart and then we got Jenkins, played by John Larroquette he kept it interesting I don't think it will make it without one or at least get guest stars that our known.

The story is a bit all over the place. While it was some years ago, I have fond memories of the original series and I was hoping for the same level of quality. The way the characters were introduced or more importantly - NOT introduced leaves gaps in information and instead of enjoying the story unfold, I am left wondering how and why.

In one episode there was a scene where ballet slippers had char on them from being burned, in the next scene no char, then char again when they were being examined in the scene following.

I don't mind corny when it is done well and sadly, this falls a little short in my opinion.

I'm going to keep watching in the hopes that it will improve and we get some of the holes in the story filled in.

The writing is juvenile , the acting is amateurish, there is no chemistry between the actors .

The lead is a ham who thinks overwrought facial expressions are Shakespererian .

Olivia Morris is the only likeable main cast member.

Its not the actors i gather i am sure they are all accomplished and are capable of more than what they deliver here .

It is everything else.

Maybe its on the director(s) or studio meddling ....

it feels cheap and shoddy at every level. It is ill spent craftsmanship and ressources

it is a waste of popcorn and a beer, on a night with nothing to do and nothing to watch.

If its a choice between this and watching bacon fry in a pan , or watching my dog chase a stray fly, then its no contest , those win, every time.

When I heard the next chapter was coming out, I was so excited cause I really enjoyed the original. The characters chemistry, the acting, the story lines, there was no sense of boredom in any of the episodes in all four seasons.

When the first episode dropped and I saw Christian Kane, I was totally stoked. Then the rest of the cast showed up and I was like, ok, let me give them a chance.

There is no chemistry between the cast, like the original Librarians.

When the next chapter came out , I went back to watch the original, then I started watching the next chapter and was wholly dissatisfied. They should use better actors for The Librarian and The Guardian.
