'Methos'

[ithildin]

So it looks like Alison is on board for the discussion of the Methos episodes here. Just a little recap, she's a new fan of the show, so this is all fresh, bright, and sparkly for her and she was looking for people to talk to about the show:)

My plan -- at least at this moment -- is to post a recap of the episode and let the comments take it from there. Any better ideas on how to set this up are more than welcome. Depending on how it goes, I'll do two a week.

Methos, Air Date: 03/95

When two Watchers end up dead by Kalas' hand, Joe realizes that Kalas is looking for Methos, the mythical "oldest Immortal." MacLeod knows that, with Methos' quickening, Kalas would finally be strong enough to defeat him. Kalas and MacLeod race to be the first to find Methos.~ Recap via tv.com

There's a bit about Richie and the pointless race backstory, but we don't really care about that, do we? Heh!

Next up for discussion will be Finale 1 & 2, in case anyone had the urge to go watch before we talk :)

One note: you can comment here without being an LJ user, but if you do comment anon, could you sign your comment with a name so we can think of you as something other than 'hey you' :) Thx!

Addendum: The 'Finale' discussion is going on here.

The first glimpse of Methos! Or, rather, Adam Pierson. *g* As will be par for course with Methos, this episode raises a lot of questions for me. Just how rusty *is* Methos? Was the tumble over the bridge with Kalas planned? How sincere is he in offering MacLeod his head?

I think one of the things that *is* obvious is Methos's fascination with Duncan. He chooses to stay and meet the Highlander, letting Duncan know who he is, when it would be easy enough to disappear. He's protective, too, when he calls the police on Kalas.
