Sydney Fox l'aventurière

This show finished on the week before I graduated from high school in 2002, after knowing about it, I decided to watch this show that my high school teacher recommanded. Relic Hunter is about a woman name Sydney Fox(Tia Carrera) that is like Lara Croft and Indiana Jones combined, as she goes out with her associates to find old ancient relics that other people and historians want. This is fun at its best, and what I like about this show is that it gets it right for being a Tomb Raider wannabe. And the idea that Sydney never uses a gun.

Thanks Mr. MacAulay

I don't think it's a rip-off of Tomb Raider. It's more like Indiana Jones. Sydney and her assistant, Nigel, go searching for artifacts and such. The one 'rip-off' would be that Sydney is a Teacher at a University. But other than that, the show plots are pretty original. [There's nothing really NEW that ever comes out anymore. Almost ALL the ideas have been used. This is a pretty good re-make, if you wanna call it that.] It's very interesting and the action scenes are pretty good. Good Show.

Relic Hunter is sort of a cross between Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider, Tia Carrere is the "Dr Jones" character of the series who goes on adventures to solver mysteries, find ancient relics, of course she runs into the occasional rival relic hunter and normally ends up fighting herself and her colleges out of dangerous situations.

Not a bad show, certainly better than some of the shows that currently air on TV these days.

Enjoyable light hearted action series about a sort of feminine Indiana Jones travelling around the world in search or ancient relics. The series greatly benefit of main character Sydney Fox, played with conviction by Tia Carrere, accompanied by her assistant Nigel Bailey (Christien Anholt) and a right humour touch that makes it a nice entertainment. A predecessor of the librarians in the same line as Hercules and Xena without monsters. Recommended to spend a good time. If you like this series will probably enjoy Hooten and the Lady.

"Relic Hunter" is a really nicely done, fun TV show. People are obviously going to compare it to Tomb Raider, but other than the female protagonist, RH is a lot closer to Indiana Jones. But the best thing about Relic Hunter is that it doesn't take itself too seriously. There's lots of loose humor mixed into the interesting plotlines, which, again, are very Indian Jones-like. Tia Carrere and Christien Anholt are great actors and have great chemistry, although they aren't ever romantically with eachother. Lindy Booth was a great complimentary character as Claudia, and it's a shame that she left the show. The new girl(s) just don't do anything. I didn't expect much from this show at first, but the cast is really great, and Sydney and Nigel feel like good friends. Overall, Relic Hunter isn't a hard-as-stone drama or a throw-away action flick. It's an entertaining, fairly realistic show (in relation to a lot of what's on TV) that isn't afraid to laugh at itself in the process of doing its thing. I don't go crazy if I miss an episode, but I'm always up for watching it when I'm around. And Tia Carrere is a fabulously talented woman. She is a beautiful model, a talented singer, and a smart actress. "Nigel, duck!"
