Welcome to Forever Knight Episode discussion. We're starting at the beginning, and depending how it goes, we'll do one to two eps a week. Please feel free to pass the link on to any fellow FK fans!

Dark Knight, Air Date: May. 1992

Someone is killing a number of homeless people and draining their blood. Then a museum guard is killed the same way and a special artifact is stolen, a Mayan cup that Nick believes can help him become mortal again. Nick suspects that his old mentor Lacroix is in town and behind the murders. Forced into a partnership with the unbearable Detective Schanke, Nick has to face both Lacroix and the Homeless Killer while trying to protect his friends.. ~ via tv.com

I loved this show when it was on the air (same night as Highlander, for most years) with a few other friends -- taped every episode, saw every one including the pilot movie with different actors for Nick and the male counterpart of Natalie. It was right up there with Robin of Sherwood as an obsession. Never had any contact with the fic or fandom, though. Maybe just as well.

Liked the jade cup a lot, loved Schanke, loved Nick as the squeezable blond squirrel that he was. I'm a sucker for heroic journeys.

I was aware of it, but I didn't come across it till I was bedridden with pneumonia during second season. 2am, switching channels, waiting for the meds to kick in. And there it was! I didn't see it during first season because I worked graveyard, and it was on at 1230am. What's funny is that a friend gave me some VHS tapes of HL eps I'd missed, and on those tapes were FK eps, which she tried to get me to watch. But at that point , it was supposed to have been canceled after S1, and I didn't want to get hooked on a show that I only had access to a few eps of.
