I miss shows like this. At least we can still go back and watch them again and introduce our younger generations to actual GOOD television shows. Been showing these to my nephew and he is now obsessed with Highlander.
Socucius Ergalla saw a little boy today playing with a plastic sword.🗡 i’m gonna imagine he was pretending to be the Highlander! Keep up the great work! 😘
@@socuciusergalla238 This is one of the worst written shows I've ever seen. I watch it for fun and guilty pleasure, but do not waste your time calling it quality.
@@StarWarsMoments just like Star Wars where all lines are cheesy and most are repeatable like "I got a bad feeling about this" and fights are so clunky. The writing is not consistent why would they even hint Luke and Leia as a couple in the first movie if they gonna be siblings in the end.
Ya it was supposed to fit into the original ending of the show witch would be Mac losing a fight a Connor sense of it explaining why he’s so depressed in the movie
Yes, I love watching this. I only want it back with Adrian Paul though, I don't want too much change. Just like if they brought back Renegade it would have to have Lorenzo Lamas & Branscombe Richmond, Acapulco Heat with Randy Vasquez, Thunder In Paradise with Terry "Hulk" Hogan, anything with Carlos Lauchu, Sea Quest DSV with Don Franklin, Stargate SG-1 with Christopher Judge, Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, Ben Browder & Claudia Black, Stargate Atlantis with Joe Flannigan, Jason Momoa, Rachel Luttrell, David Hewlett & Kavan Smith are also welcome too. The TV shows today are just not as good
@@kindhoneyrose1979 You could bring this series back on reruns on say NBC Thursday nights at 9:00 PM, it would still take the ratings easily. Remember, most Americans still never saw an episode of this series.
Unlike the shit shows on today for the most part. Highlander was actually written very well. And tv is supposed to spark your imagination, so you don't need everything spelled out to you. I love this show. Just the flashbacks alone are awesome. Because you have to use your imagination about what it was to live in those times. That's what lacks in virtually all the tv shows nowadays.
In a way the concept was not new anymore when the show aired for the first time. Series like KUNG FU wered already done in the same syle. Also stories about IMMORTALS wandering through the ages and changing their identities had been commen since the Thirties. But true, this series never becomes old like the HiGHLANDER himself. I enjoy watching it every time. Especially in English. The acress playing Tess does this English-French accent very well. In the dubbed High German the acress their has a similar charming voice but she does it just in plain High German.
I know very well its a story, but an immortal warrior who has fought on most of the battlefields for the last 400 years has a mortal walk in to his store with a medal of blood, a purple heart he earned. The warrior honored his brother, the best way he could and let him retain his honor.
I was looking away at the start of the episode and didn't see Leo, but when I heard that agonizing, guttural, growly scream I gasped, and said, 'Ghost,' as I looked up. 😂 Vincent Schiavelli is a legend.
just him trying to sell his purple heart or what he needs....says loads about the character of that man....the vet was the best part of this episode. my father served in nam..2 tours...not all of him came home...physically he did...but...anyway...
i shed a tear when Duncan slipped Leo's medal back into his pack. I never served because my health prevented me from doing so, but I highly honor and respect those who did and do. To those who served and to those who now serve, thank you for your service.
My pops served 6years 6months in Vietnam and North Korea. I have mad props for our nation's vet's. As long as they really served and aren't stealing the valor of our true vets
This was the very first Highlander episode I watched on tv back in the early 90s. That guy who played the sheriff played a different character in almost every season of Highlander. He also played small parts on various tv shows throughout the 90s that were mostly shot in Vancouver. Good swordfight at the end.
In part his teacher tried to kill him (it’s more or less a unspoken rule that teacher and student won’t fight unless they are the last two it’s why Mac is so surprised when he found out his friend did it in a later season) and that his immortality was triggered during the gathering from the kill count Dawson shows Mac during end game he basically racked up a third of his count over the course of a decade way more then the 400 years before it and to feel safe after max attacked him Richie started hunting to gain as much power as he could in a short time he was burned out
Immortals tend to avoid small towns and favor bigger cities they don’t have to move around as often sense so much day to day Business can be down over the phone or through carriers unlike small towns where every one knows everyone add to that the fact that immortal fights are not that common you can see that in Mac’s kill count the watchers keep in 400 years he has 174 confirmed kills a fourth of that would have been in the 6 year run of the show witch unofficially takes place during the gathering so when one dose happen the cops probably mark it down as a gang killing or a two but jobs playing with swords that got out of hand
Died on his knees begging for his life eh? From the sound of it, Lucas went down swingin. Enough so that even a shell-shocked wounded war vet was able to make his way there. Sounded like someone needed to salvage some pride.
The Sheriff killed Lucas. He got to that cabin pretty fast and soon after the killing happened. He framed the homeless guy. Who's a jury gonna believe, a homeless person or the town sheriff?.
Not really two handed swords like thoses are heavy and not easily used it’s why homeland has two of the most basic fights in the hole franchise they were ment for killing mounted warriors or course not one on one fights
RICHIE: 🤷🏼♂️ “Somebody starts playing a banjo, 🎻 i’m outta here!” 🏃🏼♂️💨💨💨 🤦🏼♀️ Ok, ok. So _maybe_ this wasn’t the world’s best acting. 🎭🤷♀️ But there _were_ a LOT of *funny lines* in this episode! 🤣 And i’m only about halfway thru! 🙆🏼♀️ *LOVE THIS* *SHOW!!* 😘
@11:43 POLICE: “Got a headless body on a city bridge a while back.” i always read comments that the cops don’t notice what’s going on but at least in _this_ case ...
No he shouldn’t military sabers were not actually ment for use they were ment to help enlisted men know this was a officer follow him it’s why if you watch shows like pawn stars and antique roadshow they won’t touch a sword from the revolutionary war or Civil War eras with “battle damage” his sword would have been made for combat and stood out to much
Yes Fred Pal i think so too. i actually recently tweeted Adrian Paul to tell him that with his great looks and amazing athletic ability, he reminds me of Cary Grant. Mr Paul ANSWERED ME (!) and said that he’d read a book on Mr Grant and that he liked him too! So now i’m in ❤️ with Duncan MacLeod AND Adrian Paul!! He’s a wonderful man! 😘
Not true he wouldent have stepped in as it would have made Lucas look weak and marked him as easy prey it would have played out the same just no wrongly accused homeless man
you all catch 5:30 where a can falls out of the bag, rolls off his shoulder. he picks up it up looks at it with disgust and confusion and jams it back in the bag?
I've probably seen this episode a dozen times & never noticed that until I read this comment! By the time my eyes get off of Tessa's ass the can's back in the bag.
The thing that really bothers me about this episode is at about 15:00. The whole interrogation should be inadmissable in court because the cops are very much leading the vet. Seems to me they want him to have been guilty.
I used to love this as a kid. Still do actually for the nostalgia. But looking through an adult's eyes you see how the plots were so 90s and facile. I could tell the sheriff did it since the beginning of the episode.
🙆🏼♀️ Somehow i’d never noticed how _IMMEDIATELY_ Richie became “part of the family”. i know, MacLeod needs to keep an eye on him bc he’s immortal etc. But didn’t he just break in a couple _days_ ago? 🤷♀️
The episodes were not filmed in order, and it was a mistake for the show to put this as the second episode. But, this was the 90s and not a big budget show, that we are lucky made it 6 years.
@@stactionsmedia3318 Yeah. There was an episode where an immortal tells a guy he's something else, shoots watch him get back up to get an immortal sidekick.
Kojin MacJorn try GOIN to a strange country and your government tells you to kill every person there. They tell you anything and you believe it. Next thing you know, your now in too deep. These poor vets never knew wtf was GOIN on. Same with current events now.
They were even forced to kill children. Imagine having to kill a child because your enemy is using them as a weapon. You'd have trouble living with that as well
It was the Vietnam War that we discover what vets suffer is more than battle fatigue but a serious damage to psyche that we now call post dramatic stress disorder. A lot of Vietnam vets fell homeless, drug addicts or commit suicide. We now have programs to help vets with ptsd.
I can't believe there's an n word in this ep Jesus Christ. I loved this show as a teenager, wild to watch it now! The 90s were different lol Ed: ahhhh I just got to the end with the purple heart 😭 Duncan is a big sweetheart, I love him sm

I thought Tessa was beautiful, but I was surprised when I found out that Alexandra (Tessa) was only 3 years older than Stan Kirsch (Richie). I thought they were several years apart, not just 3. Either Alexandra looked old for her age or Stan looked young for his.
As great as the show was it's hard not to say why can't the good immortals just take down the murders and live peacefully. Why does there only havr to be one?
Well, "it's a kind of magic" like with the magic pockets for their swords that they pull from nowhere. I saw an episode where Duncan was wearing a hoodie of sorts and pulled the Katana from thin air. The Gathering is a magic compulsion to seek out other Immortals and fight to the death. They can't ignore it unless they retreat to Holy Ground.
That would be the Medal of Honor but Purple Heart is up there as its only award to thoses who are wounded in battle showing valor and you actually can’t sell them unless the buyer has a license
@bevz2nikki Seriously? From what I learned in constitutional law, it's illegal in any case, including when a cop does it, because it leads to false confessions.
a lot of shows have bad writing, horrible dialogue, not bad actors or poor delivery; but this is one of the gems in t.v. land that is great at least the first half. staying tuned
I'm sad that Lukas was killed .l wish Duncan would reach before and met Lukas may be would have avoid the evil immortal to kill Lukas.or maybe Duncan would have chopped the head of the evil immortal before.
Chun CHUNA it is these if that will pull us apart, but what story would it be if that happens It was really emotional and we made a connection with a man we never saw
Sorry you’re sad Chun CHUNA but if the writers agreed with all those _”maybes”_ you mentioned then there’d be no reason for this episode! Everyone could just go home, take a nap 😴💤 and dream about castles 🏰 and fairies 🧚🏻♀️ and unicorns 🦄! WHEEE!! 🎉🥳
Cool how that Civil War flashback would tie into a season 5 episode that explores more of Duncan's history. Duncan was working as both a Union Calvary scout behind enemy lines and for the Underground Railroad helping to smuggle runaway slaves to Philadelphia and freedom. He is captured in civilian clothing but still spends months in the notorious Andersonville Prison whose commanding officer is a sadistic immortal Colonel who withholds rations and maintains unsanitary conditions that contribute to a great loss of life among the Union captives. This scene refers to that Colonel as the guy withholding rations from the Union soldiers. It's ironic that Duncan made an enemy of one Confederate Officer (The Colonel at Andersonville) and would make his escape with the help of another Confederate Officer (the Captain shown here)
@@PaulXPZ he basically said "I'm taking charge and if the Colonel has a problem I'll be more than happy to take it up with him." Most officers even today, especially today don't have the stones to say much less do act contrary to other officers that high up the food chain.
2:37 VINCENT SCHIAVELLI did a lot of famous roles like in Ghost or in Batman, there as the Pinguin. He died in 2005 in his families old homeland in italy 47 51 I really love the closure part of this episode showing the more human face of the Detectiv and giving Leo and Duncan´s friend a satisfieng end. Just the THING with the Sword on the grave, that is not what it is ment to be in realism. Early on with swords, spears and rifles it was done since the Hundred Year´s War at least to mark a provisorical grave to find back the sites th give the people a more serious funeral in time. BUT the rifles never were ment to stick there permanently. That is something that first came up in ( politcal-satirical ) cartoons and pulp fiction illustrations So einter that was done here by the direcktor out of dramatical value or because he did not have known better.
I've always thought there was a prejudice against the South on television. Notice here. This is supposed to be happening in New York. Yet, both of the rude policemen have an accent from somewhere between Georgia and Louisiana.
@@Astyanazthe sherif was an immortal and his accent from many different places. The other guy, he sounds somewhat southern, but it was supposed to be the Pacific Northwest, so I believe they were going for country boy accent.
Who is to say Duncan didn't take it after it was over? He's not the type to let a perfectly good Claymore go and it's not like the Sheriff will need it anymore.
I've never seen Vincent Shiavelli play such a vulnerable character. This was a great performance from him
Duncan knows principles and morals. Wish that society now learns it. This series always taught lessons of life.

Richie: Where?
This was the only time in the series where Duncan could remotely "feel" the death of another immortal.
The going theory is that at some point in the past Duncan and Lucas had shared a double Quickening like he and Methos did in Season 5.
He felt it because he was close to it, and he got hit by a random bolt.
@@iampk13 Then how would he know that his friend Lucas lost the fight?

I'm surprised there's not more similar stories like this of people and cops investigating these lightning storms...lol
& finding headless bodies.
Probably dismissed as a natural phenomenon in most cases. Also a lot of these occur in random locations so probably aren't noticed as much.

lot???
You mean Juan Sanchez Ramirez?
Yes Fred Pal i think so
too. i actually recently
tweeted Adrian Paul to
tell him that with his
great looks and
amazing athletic ability,
he reminds me of Cary
Grant. Mr Paul
ANSWERED ME (!) and
said that he’d read a
book on Mr Grant and
that he liked him too!
So now i’m in ❤️ with
Duncan MacLeod AND
Adrian Paul!! He’s a
wonderful man! 😘
yeah, he should have had a turn at playing Bond. :)
Yeah, that's one of the reasons Adrian Paul was cast as Duncan McLeod. The other reason was his swordsman skills.
Too bad Mac didn't get there an hour earlier. He could have saved his friends life. I blame Tessa for slowing him down.
Not true he wouldent have stepped in as it would have made Lucas look weak and marked him as easy prey it would have played out the same just no wrongly accused homeless man

I always thought she looked like the perfect MILF.
Both true ,she looked older he looked younger . Which is why she is 30 and he is 17
Saw this when it aired and the Leo and cop portions moved me how the cop protected Leo.
A headless body on a city bridge, hmmmm , Slan?????
As great as the show was it's hard not to say why can't the good immortals just take down the murders and live peacefully. Why does there only havr to be one?
Well, "it's a kind of magic" like with the magic pockets for their swords that they pull from nowhere. I saw an episode where Duncan was wearing a hoodie of sorts and pulled the Katana from thin air. The Gathering is a magic compulsion to seek out other Immortals and fight to the death. They can't ignore it unless they retreat to Holy Ground.
How did they learn the rules anyways?
I preferred the season 1 episodes of Highlander. It was more upbeat, more fun, the later seasons got too dark and depressing to watch.
46:07 The Purple Heart? That's the most highest honors in the US military, he can't sell something valuable
That would be the Medal of Honor but Purple Heart is up there as its only award to thoses who are wounded in battle showing valor and you actually can’t sell them unless the buyer has a license
I love Highlander.
@bevz2nikki Seriously? From what I learned in constitutional law, it's illegal in any case, including when a cop does it, because it leads to false confessions.
a lot of shows have bad writing, horrible dialogue, not bad actors or poor delivery; but this is one of the gems in t.v. land that is great at least the first half. staying tuned
@TDM4895 It's not New York, it's Seattle (well really it's vancouver pretending to be Seattle) but your point about the accent is still valid.
Technically, it's Seacouver. At least that's what the behind the scenes book said.
Awesome!! poor camera operator almost got knocked over in the sword battle @ 44:48
I'm sad that Lukas was killed .l wish Duncan would reach before and met Lukas may be would have avoid the evil immortal to kill Lukas.or maybe Duncan would have chopped the head of the evil immortal before.
Chun CHUNA it is these if that will pull us apart, but what story would it be if that happens
It was really emotional and we made a connection with a man we never saw
Sorry you’re sad Chun
CHUNA but if the
writers agreed with all
those _”maybes”_ you
mentioned then
there’d be no reason
for this episode!
Everyone could just go
home, take a
nap 😴💤 and
dream about
castles 🏰 and
fairies 🧚🏻♀️ and
unicorns 🦄!
WHEEE!! 🎉🥳
35:00 sometimes I am shocked at how good this series is !
18:15 "He shot me here in my face!" Wow James Bond shot that actors character in the same spot in Tomorrow Never Dies!
The body always disappears in other Highlander shows, why was it still there. By the time they come back to get the body, it should be gone.
Colonel Cole stickler lol 😜
Yes, it has to disappear or they might bury it!!
Wait so is Duncans friend still alive? As that energy came through the sword
No he’s not they probably just did that to let you know who was buried there
5:30 That soda can on his neck aheauheauheauheauaeh
Cool how that Civil War flashback would tie into a season 5 episode that explores more of Duncan's history.
Duncan was working as both a Union Calvary scout behind enemy lines and for the Underground Railroad
helping to smuggle runaway slaves to Philadelphia and freedom. He is captured in civilian clothing but still
spends months in the notorious Andersonville Prison whose commanding officer is a sadistic immortal Colonel
who withholds rations and maintains unsanitary conditions that contribute to a great loss of life among the Union captives.
This scene refers to that Colonel as the guy withholding rations from the Union soldiers. It's ironic that Duncan
made an enemy of one Confederate Officer (The Colonel at Andersonville) and would make his escape with
the help of another Confederate Officer (the Captain shown here)
How does that work anyway? I mean, how did Lucas countermand the colonel's order? I thought colonel outranks captain.
@@PaulXPZ he basically said "I'm taking charge and if the Colonel has a problem I'll be more than happy to take it up with him." Most officers even today, especially today don't have the stones to say much less do act contrary to other officers that high up the food chain.
2:37 VINCENT SCHIAVELLI did a lot of famous roles like in Ghost or in Batman, there as the Pinguin. He died in 2005 in his families old homeland in italy
47 51 I really love the closure part of this episode showing the more human face of the Detectiv and giving Leo and Duncan´s friend a satisfieng end.
Just the THING with the Sword on the grave, that is not what it is ment to be in realism. Early on with swords, spears and rifles it was done since the Hundred Year´s War at least to mark a provisorical grave to find back the sites th give the people a more serious funeral in time. BUT the rifles never were ment to stick there permanently. That is something that first came up in ( politcal-satirical ) cartoons and pulp fiction illustrations
So einter that was done here by the direcktor out of dramatical value or because he did not have known better.
Actually, Danny DeVito was the Penguin and Vincent played the role of a organ grinding member of his Red Triangle gang.
He was also acting as Dr. Kaufman in 007: Tomorrow Never Dies
My Grandfather had that same year model Thunderbird ....sweet ride .
I've always thought there was a prejudice against the South on television. Notice here. This is supposed to be happening in New York. Yet, both of the rude policemen have an accent from somewhere between Georgia and Louisiana.
In fact, this whole town seems to be transported from the Deep South. Anyone from New York ever see anyone like these people up there?
I was wrong. Not New York but still in the north.
@@Astyanazthe sherif was an immortal and his accent from many different places. The other guy, he sounds somewhat southern, but it was supposed to be the Pacific Northwest, so I believe they were going for country boy accent.
Who is to say Duncan didn't take it after it was over? He's not the type to let a perfectly good Claymore go and it's not like the Sheriff will need it anymore.
"I am immortal... I have insight on memes and asshole kings" (am i the only one who always hears it that way?).
im not sure even mac could have taken on like 7 guys by himself.... richie probably wouldnt have been much help...
He wouldn't have to. Take down the leader of mobs like that, the rest usually fall in line.
Next time you need help, call a hippie.
Someone was in a hurry to slap a sticker on the one pickup.
What if Leo was the sheriff's watcher? lmao
Love this Series
