Another great episode! I just wanted to say that I loved the Quickening data analysis! I look forward to seeing how the quickening to episode ratio continues!

My favorites: "The Gathering" ( because Lambert) and "Lady and the Tiger" duel Tessa vs Amanda is so beautifully written!
Bad Day at building A - is simply Die Hard ripp-off and Andrew Divoff is always good as bad guy. maybe that is the reason the episode in top 10?

Thought this was a reaction to the actual episode.

I was never a fan of Duncan MacLeod but I recently rewatched the series and the character has grown on me. I agree that the first season is a little ‘iffy’ in places. Duncan basically plays the role of a vigilante/crime fighter (yet seems to talk his way out of being involved in EVERY crime that takes place!). Just a thought; you guys should do an episode based on the unofficial Queen/Kamen soundtrack from the first film - I’d like to hear your thoughts on it.

Yeah, Grant is a man of great taste. The Gathering is the best episode purely by dint of Christopher Lambert, though I think it really setup a necessity for him to return to the show to give us flashbacks to Duncan's training that not even Endgame fulfilled.

I completely agree with Amy, “Nowhere to Run” was a terrible episode of season 1. I was so annoyed watching the episode again recently.
Duncan repeatedly goes outside the law when it suits him and when asked if it was Tessa who was raped instead what would he do, he won’t answer.
It’s a nightmare for a woman to prove rape and get a conviction in the courts, and when they do, the guy only gets a year or two inside. The legal system js a joke.
“Band of Brothers” was my favourite. It was nice to see Duncan truly worried that Grayson was going to beat him.
I kinda wish the show had a big bad who pursued Duncan throughout time. He needed his own Kurgan.
