I just recently finished (loving), “Forever,” with this guy and Judd Hirsch (Rieger from, “Taxi”).
This may lack the whimsy of immortality, but it has even more room for emotional reactions…. Still, pathologist then, pathologist now — eh, works for me — I’m glad my Mom turned me onto this, and two seasons in the can…cool!

This reminds me of a TV show…hahaha
Good romance/drama/crime show — that keeps getting remade every few years.
Glad to find it again!

Upstream link is English subbed. I really enjoyed this. Having watched, “Naruto Shipuden,” and, having enjoyed it’s message about protecting the King as subtext for protecting the children, as those who will continue and move the society forward, this struck a chord with that. And, looking up the definition of, “vassel,” I saw it was different from, “fealty.” I recommend this show, and looking up those two terms.
I probably wouldn’t have watched this, except that the one review on IMDb I read wrote that they were completely hooked, and recommended not paying attention to the other reviewers who were caught in a quagmire of political and religious differences. Hahaha
So, even if you don’t find meaning in Ruiz’s inner turmoil, if you ever enjoyed, “King Arthur,” movies you can probably enjoy this. (And, hey, “King Arthur,” wasn’t even a real person they now know.)
Don’t let it get you down if you have to pause and rewind to follow along. It’s not a complicated story, but it is worth understanding why the boy’s father was killed.

wtf just happened

Happy for John…!

I really enjoyed this mini-series. Had to pause & rewind far too many times to comprehend the sub-titles, but it didn’t phase me one bit. I always had a clear idea of what and why I was watching: the building & make-up of a champion who had historical significance. I may not be able to read books about, or actually interact with the different Peoples of Spain beyond what I see in movies, and speeches by Professor Richard Wolff about Worker Self-directed Enterprises, but I do enjoy feeling like I am connected to them at some deep level (as with all my fellow Earthlings), and learning about this chapter in their history strengthens that bond in my mind.

I’d watch another season. Looking back I can see they spent good money on the CG artwork and effects only in certain episodes, but I wasn’t bothered by the lack there of during others. Story’s okay…acting a bit better than okay. It’s not, “Lovecraft Country,” but it’s better than, “Vagrant Queen,” (which I’ll also watch if there’s another season). Of course, “Vagrant Queen’s,” campy comedy mixed with drama, and this isn’t comedy.

ending’s so f’ed up…and sad

Really like the inclusion of, “Dot,” in the opening credits (from the, “Short Trek, Ephraim and Dot)! And, I’m feelin’ it…this and the first episode (!)

I found this to be emotionally satisfying. I’ve often said science fiction isn’t about space ships and gear, if it’s “good” it has to be about the relationships of the characters, and their emotional reactions. Somehow I find foreign shows are better at crystallizing experiences we recognize as human. It may’ve been long-ish, but those moments were worth it.

Nice little ditty of a mini-series. Cried almost the whole way through this last episode, but with different emotions (sad, joy, triumph, regret).

So glad I watched this again before moving on to the new episodes…. Really satisfying ending.

I used to watch, “Naruto.” His character was fused with a nine tailed fox, so, same, but different. (I’m guessing Kumiho is a much older story.)
This was very satisfying emotionally!

Educational T.V.

quite a mix of emotions…seeing her again, all hotness and death

This one has heart…shed a little tear.

Raylan gave this book to his co-worker, Tim Gutterson at the end of, “Justified.” He said, “If I tolld you I’d read it ten times, I’d be low.”
People on IMDB rate this movie well, even compared to the book, but it just seems to lack something at the end…guess I’ll have to read the book to “Grok” what the writers of Justified wanted to pass on…unless it was simply to say he reads at least one book outside college.

Been a while…glad I watched this again before moving on to S03, but from someone else’s comment that both Shadow’s parents were gods I think I missed something (I gotta research this before moving on).
:(
Edit: I see from reading online I did not miss something, and it’s still unsure whether they’ll follow the book about this point. whew!

“Hell, I’ze allays plannin’ on given you back the hat…why d’you think I wore it in here?” Too funny.

And, Rayland seems to’ve made some new friends out of that bar fight…kind of reminds me of how Naruto used to have that same power…. Hehehe!

(I’m enjoyin’ this)

Now…that’s a fitting episode description. Not like some ‘coupl’a seasons ago, which were a bit too on-the-nose.

Gotta say a heartfelt thank you to the linkers who continue to maintain availability to such an old show. Seven years old and still a link or two to dood-dot-watch — thanks for the love of the show!

What’s with the spoiler ridden summary?

That last minute or so…and, I’m crying again! Very satisfying emotionally!

Forget any trailer you’ve seen.

Emotionally satisfying! Your mileage may vary, haha

I’m so glad I re-watched the previous episode, to remind me of everything.

I loved how there were so many hooks, or emotional pay-offs in this episode…I felt them…even that earthquake (I’m still feelin’ it).
:)
ps: Looking forward to Raelle & Scylla reuniting — that’s a guess, not a spoiler — but, positive thoughts, right?

Is this a true story?

Him and and all men alike are papier mache, at best. You can gather as much money and material possessions as you like, as many men and women to protect you as you’d like. The more you have, the more pretentious and phony you become. Whether you like it or not, or how aware of it you are. It’s not too difficult to see through. Anywhose, this is a hard watch. Especially if you know anything about anything.

There hasn’t been a much emotion, for me, in the last half dozen eps., but that last scene was upsetting (character I care about).

I haven’t lost that loving feeling for all the characters…maybe I’ve just been tired. Dunno, but I hope there’s more emotional hooks in the future.

Nice, how Loretta’s story resolved though also!
:)

Oh, now that cain’t be good…make me sad, thinking he got a, “Dear John.”

The new file size feature is brilliant!

now we’re getting more information…not that I was impatient, it’s been a nice slow-burn.

Was disappointed there’re no links, BUT, two People on Trakt wrote they were disappointed after watching it…. And, then I noticed the eight minute run-time of each episode. I’m okay now…hehe

This looks interesting - waiting for some links with subs, my Castilian is rusty
