This show isn't trying to be great. It's not trying to be serious . It's just fun and silly. It also isn't a Warehouse 13 ripoff. It's spunoff from a series of movies called The Librarian from 2004, 5 years before Warehouse 13. Watch the movies first and you'll enjoy it more. Everyone rating this show 1 star just didn't get it. Also, who rates a show 1 star anyway? Be real, very few things are really that bad.

I was intrigued by the promos for this series, but after watching the pilot I was afraid it was a dud. But after a shaky start it quickly gained its footing. The action is cheesy, the characters have yet to dig beneath their surfaces, but in the meantime, this show provides some wonderfully quirky storytelling. To me it's reminiscent of the very early seasons of Buffy or Stargate SG-1. The production value isn't great, but not in a bad way -- it adds to the charm.

On the whole, this show uses a lot of time-worn tropes but always manages to add a fresh twist. I'm afraid it won't last in this world of too-shiny programming, but I sincerely hope that The Librarians continues for many years yet. Possibly my favorite new show of 2014.

NATO counter-terrorism Colonel Eve Baird (Rebecca Romijn) is hunting WMDs in Germany when Librarian Flynn Carsen (Noah Wyle) suddenly shows up. It's a world of magic which exists along ley lines across the globe. Magic has been fading away as it gets contained by artifacts. Librarians have been collecting those artifacts and knowledge to keep the world from falling into chaos. The Library sends Baird an invitation to be the new Guardian. They save new librarian candidates from attackers bend on stealing artifacts. The three new librarians are oil rigger Jake Stone (Christian Kane), thief Ezekiel Jones (John Harlan Kim), and janitor Cassandra Cillian (Lindy Booth) who has a brain tumor which gives her visions of knowledge. When the main library is lost in an alternate dimension, Jenkins (John Larroquette) brings them to a satellite branch.

This is perfectly fine silly TV fun. It's enjoyable without being too substantive. I've never seen the preceding movies so I have no connection with Noah Wyle's character. That's probably why I don't see the purpose of Wyle's back and forth. He comes in, he leaves, he comes in, he leaves. I'd rather have him do the pilot and leave the show to the newcomers. The group has fine chemistry but he keeps them in training wheels. This show reminds me of Warehouse 13 and it should be fun for any fans of shows like that.

I read that TNT has made the stupid decision to cancel The Librarians after this season and that the creator of the show is shopping the show around to other networks. That is the dumbest idea TNT has had in the history of the channel it seems they only want to air procedural cop dramas and shows about the drug industry or gangs these days. We have more than enough procedural cop dramas already and The Librarians is a unique franchise that I have watched since the very 1st movie The Spear of Destiny. With a show like this it could go 10 seasons with a strong following because everyone I know loves the show. My nephew and I watch it every week and play the repeats on Hulu every weekend and he is just 15 so millennials obviously love the show too. And their are so many stories that are left to tell literally hundreds of storylines can be told that haven't been touched on yet with all the ancient stories of magic and gods/goddesses and magical creatures that have never been mentioned in the show yet. So why is TNT pulling the plug on the show? It is about the only show I watch on that network anymore. Like when SYFY pulled Warehouse 13 I stopped watching it until Krypton just started playing. Maybe if TNT doesn't come to their senses and renew the show you can try Netflix, Hulu or Amazon if nothing else try WGN to continue the show, so don't stop writing and filming because I bet their is a network that will be smart enough to know a good investment when they see it and we will be there to watch it. Good Luck finding a new home for the show I desperately hope you do or hope TNT realizes what it is that they are losing and green lights it again.

I've purchased three series to watch, Eureka, The Librarians and Warehouse 13. I've watched most of these on cable, but not all episodes - and since I like to own DVDs and watch whenever I want without relying on the mood of streaming companies, I preferred to buy them.

The Librarians are good - if you don't expect much. Eureka was better, but Librarians are likeable too - the acting was meh from Lindy (annoying most of the time), and surprisingly good from the young John Harlan Kim. The major character played by Noah Wyle was not very convincing - it was like a "generic Doctor Who", who would never get to stay with the hottie X-Men Mystique... come on... the actor is very dull and far from attractive. Jenkins played by John Larroquette was excellent - he is a very well trained actor. Christian Kane is so, so (much better looking then than the recent "auntie" long hair showed on online pictures...). And Rebecca Romijn is... well, hot and beautiful as ever. If Jerry O'Connell ever gets tired of her, I'm available.

The effects were - most of the time - reasonable.

Resuming, good to watch as long you are not too demanding.

While the premise of the show isn't completely original they do a GREAT job of masking this. I started watching this show after it was cancelled which is a d*mn shame. I had never heard of it until I stumbled upon it on Hulu. Shame on TNT for canceling such a great show after they clearly didn't advertise it very well. If you like Supernatural, Warehouse 13, Charmed, shows like that check The Librarians out

I really enjoy the non fiction light hearted detective shows. This is a great example. While the first 2 shows were a bit rocky I have really enjoyed the season but it was so short! I actually had not heard of the librarian movie prior to reading the post. I have a lot of professional friends in their 40's who also enjoy this show. Maybe it's because there is a bit of creativity and problem solving but after a hard day at the office it's an easy and fun way to unwind. I hope it returns for many more seasons that will be an actual season.

Also wish it wasn't the last season of Falling skies. That is another favorite!!

I wasn't sure what to expect firing up the Librarians. It's got some elements of Dr. Who (sci fi), Indiana Jones(adventure), and Harry Potter in it (magic). Sound ambitious? Well not really. The show is extremely light hearted to a point it hurts the shows potential.

I guess the best thing you can say about The Librarians is it knows what it wants to be. A family show aimed at younger teens but with witty enough writing adults will get a few kicks out of it as well. There are some educational tidbits thrown in regarding science and mythology. Also not one sexually charged joke or innuendo yet regarding its attractive female cast. Gotta give it points for that.

No show starts out great. The Librarians has laid a foundation to be pretty good if it can explain its story lines a little clearer, and show more human side to these characters than just the adventure side. Right now I'll give it a generous 7/10 rating.

Love the show, simple as that. fun and new and hope to save the show from the rigid men and their quest for profit and scandal. it was a slow start with some strange and not pleasant performances but it came to be and now it is here and must stay for another season. please suport the show .

Television has been missing something and it's called The Librarian. It's a mix between The Warehouse, Indiana Jones and Relic Hunter with a little bit of Lara Croft thrown in for good measure. It's a ridiculous yet serious adventure drama with plenty of action and supernatural themes. If this sounds up your alley then I definitely recommend you watch it.

When I first started watching the show I realised that Noah Wyle's character who is the main librarian in the movie series was not featured in the lead cast which worried me a little. Thankfully the show works well with him being a supporting star. In fact his incredibly over the top theatrics may have brought down the show if he was in every episode.

I honestly look forward to watching a new episode of this show each week. It's lighthearted adventurous fun.

After reading the bad reviews here, I had to chime in. Most of these reviewers have obviously never watched the movies, because the first movie predates all the shows they say the library is ripping off (except Indiana Jones of course).

That being said, if you liked the movies as I did, you'll like the show. The same quirky humor and history lessons are in the show. Noah was in the first 2 episodes before leaving the new Librarians to hold down the fort while he himself takes care of some other business. As for the new characters, If you liked Leverage, you'll like Christian Kane in the Librarians. He brings the same great sense of humor. The other librarians will grow on you by the second or third episode.

Dan from Night Court, does a decent job filling in for Newhart and Rebecca is great!

This is the TV sequel to ¨Librarian trilogy ¨ with the likable Noah Wyle , this series dealt with the sympathetic adventures of the mild-mannered as well as botcher Flynn Carsen who starred three popular episodes titled ¨The Librarian¨ franchise 1ª: Quest of the spear -2004- directed by Peter Winther and 2ª: Return to King Salomon's mines -2006- by Jonathan Frakes and third ¨The Curse of the Judas chalice¨ -2008- again by Jonathan Frakes .

Rating : Acceptable and passable, this exciting adventure has all the imagination , magic and silliness this kind of amusing demands .

Okay so I had to make a profile to say this about this show, NO it is not a knock of Warehouse 13, that came out in 2009, the first Librarian movie came out in 2004, the concept was knocked off by Warehouse 13, do your research. Now on to the show!

If you saw the three movies, which I have, you'll already know that this show is spot on with the movies. Same cast, same tone, everything you liked about the movies is there. It's supposed to be cheesy the concept is a library with mythical objects, Flynn is a complete nerd with 20 something degrees, he was a shut in. If you want a damn uninteresting monotone action star who thinks he's acting go watch the hundreds of Crime investigation on the air. But if you want a fun upbeat story with good characters you will like this.

I like this tv series so much,funny,educational,good characters,interesting adventures around the world and also magic and mystery.old school type of fashioned tv show , absolutely worthy to watch.

The is how reminds me of a couple of the '90s syndicated series like "Sinbad: The Seven Seas" and "Young Indiana Jones Chronicles." Kid-friendly adventure series with a bombastic score and cheesy special effects.

Times have changed though and TV has grown in leaps and bounds. Next to the output of J.J. Abrahams and Joss Wheedon, the show's attempts at building some grand mythology is so vague ("we must recover 'the magic'") it's kind of laughable.

It's nice to see Rebecca Romijn doing something different on TV and it's nice to see Noah Wyle on TV at all, and Cassie (the frazzled redhead) is the kind of character I tend to fall in love with on screen (see Emma on Glee). but the characters are all a little flat. The jewel thief is a one-note antagonist in someone else's movie, not someone who has as much screen time as this guy has, though I do give the show points for combining their token Asian and token Brit into one character.

The above two paragraphs, however, are written with my head. On paper, this show doesn't cut it against so much great programming that's on TV right now. However, I do find it watchable and am continuing to watch it, 3 episodes in.

It's definitely a show that knows what it is (a bit cheeky, tenuous grasp on reality, stock kid-friendly characters that act rather predictably) and runs with it. If it's cartoonish, that's because it's made in the style of Sunday morning cartoons. Coming at the show on its own terms will definitely help you enjoy this.

The librarians was a great show, I can't believe they canceled it! TNT is a joke, they cancel all of the good shows and keep the crap.

Never having watched the movies this series were based on I went into this series with the sole understanding it was a fantasy series about magic. That's about the simplest summary there is really, it is an enjoyable, family friendly fantasy. There are moments of humour and Acton to keep you interested, the plots are simple and fun but don't stand up to any logical critique.

All in all if taken at face value it is good fun entertainment, buy don't expect major plot twists or a complicated drama.

The acting is good and characters are likable, the stories are self contained episodes that don't require you to have watched those prior to them. The tales tend to be a take on known myths or legends, and seems to be well aware of the silliness of some of them, made apparent through the gentle humour.

I find myself hoping for another series!

Realizing that The Librarians spawned from the same minds that created Leverage, I was not surprised (pleasantly) in seeing the resemblance between the two television shows. I loved Leverage due to its character development past the traditional "task-oriented" crack-team setup. The characters grew close with each other as the show progressed and their antics never stopped coming. I predict that the Librarians will be the same way, and I love that each character in this show has their own quirkiness about them. I also appreciated that the show's creator did not confine the Librarians to the stereotypical nerds plagued with social awkwardness and anxiety issues. These are well thought-out individuals with their own types of personalities.

Too many TV shows nowadays have dark brooding themes and serious drama within them. I appreciate that The Librarians come off as much more light-hearted, friendly, and fun. Enjoy it for its silliness and magical wonders!

Edit...watched the show again for the third time. I forgot I wrote a review already and I read what I said, and it still stands 100%. Cassandra is still the most annoying character. And no, it's not a hate female thing because I like Eve Baird.

There are no swear words, no bloody violence or other things that would offend those with kids. It might not be for those 5-6-year-olds but would be OK for everyone else.

I would rate the show higher except for the Cassandra character. She was annoying the whole time. Sure she had a "brain grape" but the character was all about her. She was told not to use magic, and she pursued it anyway. She betrayed the group the first time and one could argue multiple times due to her doing her own thing and ignoring what the group wanted. Whenever her little seeing things in the air gig I always fast forwarded it. I would take Ezekiel (who is supposed to be the selfish one in the group) over Cassandra. I think of Cassandra as the Sooki from True Blood. Someone you watched the show and hoped would be killed off or went on her way.

If not for her it would have gotten 1-2 more stars. I just figure that any show I have to fast forward past that character needs to drop a star or two. In a way, I would say they could have done fine without her character since all her skill really was doing math fast. They could have figured out the math at a slower pace.

It had interesting stories each week bring back the myths and monsters we all read about growing up. I especially loved the mythological stories I read. Greek myths were my favorite, but I also read them from other genres. And of course, the fairy/horror tales were also things I enjoyed reading. So, to see them brought up each week and I actually knew what they were referencing was a nice treat.

I was looking forward to this show, but the pilot was dire. It was like they'd used a story Warehouse 13 had binned. I've loved Christian Kane since Angel so I was most disappointed. At first it was quite a surprise to see Noah Wyle acting like a mad professor, but that wore thin after 5 minutes and just became irritating, though I gather he will only be making intermittent appearances in future episodes. I was hoping for more of an Indiana Jones type approach to this series, and maybe if the writers had produced a more serious and well researched script it could have worked. Maybe kids will enjoy it, I don't know.... I won't wax lyrical about how bad the first 2 episodes are, so I'll sum them up in one word; moronic.

This is a very uplifting, fun fantasy series. The basis isn't necessarily new - many shows have a team of gifted people solving crimes, mysteries & puzzles. But this most reminds me of great films that were before their time: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and The Time Machine, adding some of the youthful whimsy of Charmed and Harry Potter.

I have to mention that I didn't know this series existed until I did a search for one of my favorite tv characters: Elliot Spencer (Christian Kane). This makes me think that streaming platforms attempting to show me what interests me get too stuck on one genre while ignoring others. In the old days, we would see all ads at some point eventually. But I never saw one ad for this clever show.

Even though Wyle is one of the more well known names, Flynn is actually not the best character. I'm not sure if it's the way the character was written or the way it was played. He would have been more believable with a slightly disheveled appearance. But the writers try to give each charcter a viable backstory with interesting quirks or gifts. One could say another more seasoned group of actors could have pulled this off better yet it's engaging and charming nonetheless.

Larroquette is great as Jenkins, and Kane is enjoyable although Leverage is still his best vehicle. I'm disappointed that Math Girl is so criticized by reviewers yet that is true in real life, as well: average people disliking the smart kid. But I did think they are remiss in not having at least one regular black character - which would have actually made more sense for Ezekiel.

Some episodes are better than others but it follows the tradition of wrapping up each episode with minimal cliffhangers.

A great carefree family-friendly show that tweens and up can enjoy. Maybe even younger but it does have upsetting gouls and situations.

What do you get when you cross Warehouse 13 with Doctor Who, in a bad manner? This series. It has the characteristics of both series, but ist just doesn't cut it. The Librarian is as ADHD as Doctor Who and the artifacts come straight out of Warehouse 13. Let's be fair, the movies were funny and exiting, this series is a bore, has too much sentiment (that makes you sick) and is far too predictable. Noah Wyle, great in Falling Skies, does a descent job but the script is to thin to make anything of of it. Christian Kane played a tough cool fighting machine in Leverage (a great series I watch rather over this series any day) and now plays some nerd in The Librarians? That just does not match. Rebecca Romijn, why did they cast her? Can one play a role with more repulsion? So, with all the other fantastic series nowadays, why should you bother with this one?
