Les Chevaliers de Tir Na Nog

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.

As a fan of history, mythology, and fantasy "Mystic Knights" show pulled me in from the get-go. It has semi-decent scripting, the costumes are fantastic (there are exceptions), it has pretty good acting, and the heroes and villains all play well off each other.

SCRIPTS--Half a script is pretty great, the other half falls flat, but its all mixed together, meaning many episodes turn out so-so. Also, some of the key players are repeatedly being given dead lines (King Conchobar and Angus for instance) they need to be given something... more. I'm not sure what but the writers should be able to come up with something. ACTING--Apart from some over acting by villagers (horrid lines they end up putting too much effort into), casting did extremely well in choosing their leads and so on. Everyone, good and bad, works well together! COSTUMES/WEAPONS--The everyday clothes that everyone wears are spectacular! Mystic Knight armor that falls short are Deirdre's and Garrett's. A chainmail bikini would probably have better protection in her case... and wouldn't look as plastic; his looks like bunch of snap-it-together pieces of brown plastic, when it should look bronze. Ivar's trident looks like it was bought at a discount store and while Garretts weapons look cool, they also look plastic.

Recently "Mystic Knights" has taken on too many "Power Rangers" traits, if you watch the show, you'll know what I mean. As the series progresses, though, it should find its niche and perfect its style. Overall, it is a wonderful show that all ages should enjoy (most of my friends and I watch it and we're all 20+). The plot thickens and twists, though it gets a bit juvenile in places, and everything just keeps getting more interesting. It might be of some interest to fans of the movie "Willow" or the T.V. series "The Adventures of Sinbad". A lot of adventure, a dab of mystery, a dash of romance, a sprinkling of forces at nature... Check it out! (My Score: 7/10)

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.

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
