Worth watching or no?

Haven't seen it because it doesn't interest me to.

Yeah, it looked as interesting as the Earthsea promos was to me...
As in, run-of-the-mill fantasy infused with the budget and sensibilities of the Sci Fi Channel.

If they were going to show a loosely-based Wizard of Oz remake, let it be "Six-String Samurai":

Although it uses WoZ more as symbolism, but still... It's light-years more original than "Tin Man".

Gf told me there was a frakking awesome BSG commercial though.

I watched Part 1 (about to fire up Part 2) and I haven't made my decision yet.

I think Part 2 was even better...I say watch it.

Really standout performances by Kathleen Robertson and Alan Cumming. A lot of the others are great too, particularly Zooey Deschanel and Neal McDonough, but Robertson and Cumming should be proud to have this in their resumes.

Yeah, I've enjoyed it so far. Some easily guessable elements, but enough unexpected stuff to keep it interesting (for me anyway).

It was good television series. It gives the story a heavy science fiction/fantasy emphasis and gives only allusive references to most of the original story. I like this Tv series.
