| ahhh...but that would mean hiring more people which wouldn't be cost effective...especially considering that most of the fans are going to watch it anyway regardless of any holes in cannon |

(this is probably why Law & Order is so successful - there isn't a lot of 'canon' -- character-wise anyway -- to keep track of, so there's less chance they'll screw up) btw -- are you aware that Highlander was cancelled b/c Adrian Paul wanted to persue 'a movie career'? yep - that's why we had no further eps of Highlander (and probably why season 6 sucked so bad - AP didn't wanna do it anymore) --- (this is kinda one of the other reasons i don't like Duncan very much - his actor was an @$$) | |

hehe -- pretty much --- As of 1997, there were these (let me know if you've heard of or seen any of them): Dead Men Can't Dance (very very bad film - don't bother - it sucks) Susan's Plan Convergence Merlin: The Return (he plays Lancelot - somehow i think this wouldn't be good either) Highlander: Endgame (we all know how well this one did) The Breed The Void (the last two say 2001 as release date, so i'm not sure if they've been released yet or not -- oh - and i'm NOT looking for them) next post -- Peter Wingfield stuff!! | |

|  Peter Wingfield okay - this is probably a much more impressive list -- not in quantity, but in quality --- Peter Wingfield: (since 1997) Noah's Ark (tv series) (never saw/heard of this, but that's ok) Cold Squad (tv series) (available only to our Canadian viewers - and possibly some in the UK) Strange World (tv series) (have no idea on this one either) The Man Who Used to be Me (tv movie) Highlander: Endgame (a waste of the man's talent if you ask me - he could have done something better w/ his time) Queen of Swords (tv series) (which PW didn't want to be a part of anymore b/c he felt he was carrying the show when he was on and not the main character) The Wedding Dress (due out on Showtime sometime this year) The Miracle of the Cards (due out sometime this year also) almost forgot -- PW's guest appearances on Stargate SG-1 as Tanith/Hebron and The Chris Isaak Show -- he played an auctioneer - he was very funny! First Wave - guest appearance (this was good too) Cold Feet - guest appearance (haven't seen this - don't even know what it is - but i'll wager he was wonderful in this too!) hmmmmmm -- i'm much more impressed w/ Peter Wingfield's group of productions than i am w/ AP's - why? b/c AP only knows how to be Duncan MacLeod - he's kinda like Tom Cruise - he's the same guy in every movie/production --- w/ PW - i can clearly see the difference in his characters - the man has great talent!! |

| yep....he is so character typed now...mostly because he seems to behave the same way in anything else I've seen him in..but then again...if they kept going the way they did with season 6...which other than a couple of episodes really sucked....it might have been better that he wanted out anyway |
