Legend of the Seeker

[SaveOurSeeker]

As you may tell I am a big fan of the show and I brought the 1st book just the other day. You may or may not be aware that the show has been canceled. There is a campaign going on to bring the show back. There are a ton of people working very hard online to get the show revived and this is my little contribution.The admin on the forum have been kind enough to let me plug the campaign on here, Thanks. There are currently over 30000 signatures on the petition already and we hope to get a lot more to Save Our Seeker. If you are a fan of the show then please sign the petiton that is in my sig and if you're are not a fan sign it any way, we will count it as you're good dead for the day. Hope you can help us, Thank you. (apologies I was unaware of necroing)

Sorry, I should've been clearer in the other thread and told you directly to make a new thread. We did already have LotS threads, but they're too old to revive (we have a one-month rule). I split your post into a new thread.

The Legend of the Seeker is awesome! The cast is amazingly hot. The books are sometimes awesome and sometimes crap, but they offer a kind of story that is hard to find in other books so I've really enjoyed them overall.

No worries, I am like a bull in a china shop at times lol? Sot/lots is so different. We don't get many things like this that done with such finesse. I am well in to the actress that plays Cara, just wow, even her facial expressions are gorgeous amongst other things. They have done well with such unknown actors. Started reading the 1st book a few days ago and loving it. I haven't read a book for 10 years since Lord of the rings. The whole fantasy genre is so under rated and in a way frowned upon so we don't get much of a chance when it comes to the tele. Cheers for sorting the thread out

[Shlup]

Yeah, Tab/Cara's facial expressions are great. I think I like TV!Cara better than book!Cara, though I do love book!Cara too.

Haven't got to her in the book yet but thats what a lot of people say. No contest really with the leather suit slightly unzipped

I know its off topic but if you haven't read a fantasy book in over 10 years then I have a big list of recommendations for you lol, as I am sure many other people could recommend some more for you lol.

Sorry if I misunderstood your comment "I read a book for 10 years since Lord of the Rings" I think you intended to say "I haven't read a book ect ect" though if I'm wrong please forgive my ignorance lol

Aside from that if you are in need of some recommendations then here is a list of what I would say are great reads:

The Wheel of Time series, the original author Robert Jordan (R.i.P) passed away a few years ago and now the series is going to be finished by Brandon Sanderson, I haven't actually read The Gathering Storm as I was waiting for it to come out in paperback as the rest of my collection is also PB, my sister is getting it for my birthday (which at the time of posting was yesterday) and I will have it come the 8th.

Any book by Raymond E. Feist is sure to go down a treat, ever since I read my first book by him he has been my all time favorite author... there are to many books to list them here but I own all of them and buy the new books upon their release as they are just that great.

The Dragon Prince books by Melanie Rawn are also a very awesome series, the first one is one of my all time favorite books.

And at last (but by no means least) is the Song of Ice and Fire series by George RR Martin with characters so venomous you really cant compare the series to anything I have ever read... I have also met George and had all my books by him signed in person with a personal inscription on each of the books... was truly awesome.

Anyways back on topic I fully support this idea and will try to pester as many people as I can to sign this petition to get our awesomely pretty series back on the air!

Cara was definitely a highlight of the TV show, which I was generally unimpressed by. The writing was oftentimes terrible, and this is compared to Goodkind's overall mediocre writing (except for one book). Outside of Cara and Kahlan (and Denna, in her appearances), I was also unimpressed by the TV-characters. So I'm not broken up about the loss of the TV show.

[SaveOurSeeker]

Yeah you were right I haven't read a book for that long, glad you understand my hyper typing, been like it all day after moaning about the football all day on my teams forum, 1 of our best players got his leg broken and I am so about it. Thanks for the suggestions I will look into those when I finish Wizards 1st rule. Cool story about the author you met. I really appreciate you're help in my little mission. The other FF forum I post on just deleted my request, so I will be staying here for now on, people actually converse lol.

I understand where you are coming from. Though the acting was a bit corny at times. Compared to a lot of shows that are on, especially in the UK I can't name one TV show I would rather watch. It was the females that hooked me to the show at first, but they tell a decent story, I have no time for glee, NCIS, Two and a half Men etc and all the soap opera's we have to deal with. It was great to see to see a fantasy show and it really re-sparked my interest in the genre which I am thankful for.

Merged posts. I kindly ask you to please use the "Edit Post" button instead of double posting. ~Shiny

I only caught bits and pieces of the show but it piqued my interest a little. Not enough for me to religiously check it out or anything. But I appreciated the concept. And from what I got of the concept, they were actually <i>going</i> for that cheesey low-budget Hurcules/Xena feel. And from what I saw they kinda captured it. And with something rather independent and probably really original. So kudos to them for that

I've never heard of a petition actually working in these regards. Though I think a move like this is what got Firefly a movie, but it didn't get the series back on. So I guess it can accomplish <i>something</i>

[Raistlin]

Yeah but Firefly was infinitely better than this show.

Don't know that one, I will take you're word for it and have a look online for it

I have low expectations of it working. I am a lazy arse so actualy going out of my way slightly to do something feels quite good. It is a harmless show if you get me, probably more of a boys thing though with all the eye candy.A movie would be good, it is nice to sort of rebel against the tv executives who decide what we watch rasther than us.

If Firefly wasn't able to be brought back, I don't think that Legend of the Seeker has a chance in hell.

[Shlup]

Veronica Mars got brought back because of fan support.

[Vyk]

I'm sure Family Guy and Futurama were of a similar story

[Raistlin]

Ok, Family Guy is an example of a show worse than LotS being brought back, so you got me there.
