Old School: Wizards and Warriors

Been seeing some older TV series recently. One such is: Wizards and Warriors. Made in 1983... and it definitely shows. However, it was a children's show, so let us not judge it too harshly. Well, except for the fact that it is really bad. So far, I've only seen The Unicorn of Death, and have been informed that the next two episodes are far better. I have them to watch, so may yet say "first episode, they were just starting out, let's move on".

However, I haven't seen them yet. But, I don't want to be too critical. It is watchable in a rather bizarre way, completely over the top fantasy, with very basic characters (sword wielding heroes, annoying princesses, evil dark mage...). It even stars Jeff "Zack Allan" Conaway (no wonder everyone refers to his Grease performance as opposed to this). And many of the episodes are directed by Bill "Hulkster" Bixby. With talent like that, and that it was made by Warner Bros, I am surprised it only lasted eight episodes.

The first episode is not one to challenge the hard of thinking, hopefully the later ones will actual develop potential.
