    I decided to re-watch it, and It was even better the second time round.

    I thought it was going to be about the original librarian which was the only reason I watched now I don't know if I should continue since it looks like he isn't the main character

    Noah Whyle is currently doing Falling Skies (also for TNT).
    I think he might be promoted to regular if the show is renewed for a second season

    He will be a main character in season 2. Confirmed somewhere (don't remember the source).

    Should I wait until I see the third movie to watch this or does it matter? I caught up with the first two movies this week and I was gonna buy the third movie and watch it before starting the show, but I'm very intrigued.

    Not bad. Rebecca Romjin is a terrible actress and her character is annoying, which bogs the shown down since her character is the main character. But it's not bad, a good first two episodes.

    That was a lot of fun! The opening sequence was awesome. I like the Libraionettes (with the possible exception of the thief. He felt underdeveloped to me.) Christian Kane looked like he was really enjoying himself. :-) I had a couple of logic blips but overall it was fun and charming.

    Light escapist fun with a few good one-liners, but poor action scenes and absolutely terrible VFX....
    I love John Larroquette, but not even he could make me watch this again!

    It was pretty good, it gives a nice old fashioned action/adventure vibe. I hope they will find the library proper by the end of the first season.
    Btw, whatever happened to the crown at the end? Flynn dropped it, and then it seemed to have disappeared....o.O

    I was so happy to finally get to see The Librarians last night. It seems like we waited forever. Christian Kane was amazing as always. He is my favorite, but the whole cast was great. I loved the show so much that I watched it again as it was airing twice. My family will definitely be watching every Sunday. It is great to have a show that the whole family can watch together.

    I loved the show! I watched it twice on Sunday! Looking forward to
    watching this show. The whole cast was wonderful. Christian Kane was

    that Dean Devlin is behind you know it will be outstanding

    Very entertaining. A light hearted escape from the regular blood and guts shows on television. I am not a big fan of Rebecca Romijn's acting so far, hopefully she will loosen up as the show goes on. Loved Christian Kane and Noah Wyle. Looking forward to next weeks adventure.

    I'll be giving a few more episodes, shows can often change a fair bit after their pilots. I found the music the most annoying part of the show, it was absolutely terrible and took me out of the scene on many occasions. It was like they thought they were scoring a pantomime in places. The edit didn't do it any favours either imo.


    I do like the premis of the show, and there are parts I did enjoy. I wasn't sure that such an iconic British myth was going to be the best starting point for it before watching, and now I do wish they had gone with another subject matter if I'm honest.

    Yes, it was almost cartoon music at times, used to emphasize just how silly a scene was. We can already see how silly everyone was acting, it really didn't need to be underlined. At least there wasn't a laugh track.

  26. DarqueMode8 December 2014 at 21:53

    I expected bad VFX as well since I have seen the movies, but the VFX were so terrible I found it distracting.


    It really did feel like a made for kids show with how bad the writing, the visual effects, the music, and the fight scenes were. Just shockingly bad for primetime TV.


    I think there is a definite niche for a family action adventure series liek this so I can understand why people enjoy it, but like you I am surprsied by the praise of it as well.


    Even if the writing were to improve in the next episodes I think there will be too many negatives for me to enjoy the show. I don't think I will watch i again..

    I am a lover of history and I usually can accept how loose the movies were with reality and real history, but I will admit, these episodes tested my suspension of disbelief!

    I haven't seen the films so I was flying blind here a little I must admit. My feeling is that if you can't make something look authentic on screen, it's probably best to choose a different subject. The crown jewel and the henge, for example, were ludicrous :s

    I very much enjoyed it! I've seen people say that it was just Warehouse 13 with a bad budget and I have to say as a huge fan of W13, while it may have had a slight Warehouse 13 vibe, it was very different. I watched twice and picked up so much the second time around. I loved the movies and was really glad to see the characters in the movies on the show. Christian Kane was amazing, love seeing anything with him in it and this was no exception!

    The original librarian Flynn is in it! He will be continuing as a frequent character through out the season from what I hear.

    While the movies introduce you to the show the first episode that is 2 hours long gives a great set up for it.

    People are saying that the Librarians is a knock off of Warehouse 13 which is funny considering that the Librarian movies came out before Warehouse 13. I love both shows/movies regardless

    I agree that Rebecca needs to take so fighting lessons from Christian Kane . I think her character was supposed to be stiff. I think she'll loosen up later. Love this show.

    I have never been able to catch the Librarian movies but I loved the tv show! Wish that Bob Newhart and Jane Curtain were going to be in more of it....I can't wait for the next episodes where, I assume, that it will be more predominantly the "new" Librarians....love me some Christian Kane:) " My" only negative was so much of it was Flynn and Rebecca's characters. I understand that it was the "passing of the torch" and I would probably have felt differently if I had seen the movies.
    All in all, my new favorite show:)

    Oh, and being from Oklahoma, the bucking bronco (or bull, can't remember which) hasn't been in any bar that I've been to in about 25 years:) But it was a nice shout-out to Christian's home state!

  43. she10 December 2014 at 20:41

    I was pretty excited about this show, but...Not too keen on the continuity and logic fails; a little more attention to detail at least in the pilot would be nice. EX; given that everybody at the end keeps saying Bob Newhart char is gone, WHILE various characters are actually talking to him, I'd like to have some better reason for that other than "it's in the plot". The antiterrorist char is awfully stiff and not well acted/written, there's literally no set up for the antagonisism / sudden kissyface thing between her and the librarian, just as there's no real explanation for the synesthete char's betrayal, inconsistent treatment by SB, or rewelcome to the fold, or for Kane's sometime refusal to be an art historian, etc. Doesn't bode well for a long running series.

  44. DarqueMode10 December 2014 at 21:15

    I felt the same way honestly...
    I had seen the movies and while I recall them being low-budget I do not recall them being so badly written. Even in a magical world there needs to be some grounding force. Most of the magic in this was just childlike with little or no connection to reality... or even this show's version of reality.


    Another example that irked me was Excalibur melting away as it did. It was a real sword before being embedded with magic and would likely remain a real sword after losing its magic. Maybe it would break or shatter in pieces on contact, but melt and vanish? Ugh.. No


    Glad I was not the only one that thought that last kiss was so out of place.

    ReplyDelete
  45. she10 December 2014 at 22:03

    Yes, I thought that too- the sword was made of metal, not magic (which still cuts, even when the magic goes away, so no grabbing by the blade and shoving it up against wounded bellies, for heaven's sake!) The fake pathos- with- dogwhimper was very poor too- not to mention that Excalibur's sheath had healing properties, which is another thing the librarian or Library would have known- along with the current location of relevant art, etc. *eyeroll* I think the show has potential, but I doubt most of the target audience has a superstructure capable of keeping such a weight of disbelief suspended for the duration the show seems to require.

  46. LoriD10 December 2014 at 22:13

    I really love Bob Newhart and Jane Curtin as well as Noah Wyle and cannot see the new cast being able to carry the torch without guest appearences by them. That being said the sword melting was heart breaking and unrealistic. Christian Kane came off dorky(not sure even his large following could save this show). Hopefully Flynn will find the main library and lend a hand at the development of the characters and show.

    Was a little worried at first, but the cast seem great together and the story was very engaging. A win for Devlin

    I loved it just as much the fourth time I watched it as I did the first. That isnt surprising since Dean Devlin is great at what he does and Christian Kane was great as always. Everyone did a great job and I will be watching this Sunday as well.

    The Librarians is a well written, smart, funny and action packed show. We definitely need more smart TV like this. Plus watching Christian Kane is awesome!

  51. Julie11 December 2014 at 17:28

    Noah Wyle's character seemed "unlike" himself, as compared to his portrayal of the character in the Librarian movies. Christian Kane's character seemed silly and a little unworthy of his acting skills. Rebecca Romijn's character is supposed to be a highly trained and skilled "fighter", yet her fight scenes were badly done and unrealistic, and she was very "stiff" in them. The whole point of the Librarian was to collect and protect the magical artifacts, yet Excalibur got "killed." I hated that on top of everything else. The Librarian(s) failed at every turn...unlike in the movies. Overall I was disappointed. I hope that future episodes come together better, and that the Librarian(s) might actually be able to succeed in their mission. Otherwise, what's the point?

  52. Boris B12 December 2014 at 01:33

    From what i understand the sword was laying on the stone that released magic so basically it disappeared into the stone returning the magic. Truly must of not been the real Excalibur for if it was then it wouldn't disappear and return the magic unless the sword was forged out of magic which explains why it just melting back to the stone.
