'Archangel'

[ithildin]

Welcome to the seventeenth installment of Methos Episode Discussion. You can find the last one, for The Modern Prometheus here. All prior episode discussion links can be found over on the sidebar.

Archangel, Air Date: May 1997

The dead are walking the streets of Paris. The forces of evil are coming. Is MacLeod being readied for some higher calling -- or is he simply losing his mind? ~ recap and quotes via tv.com

Next up will be Indiscretions aka The Methos & Joe Show.

A Bit Later: I'm going to try and put up a first season poll at some point today to take votes for the next raft of discussions. You can find the poll here. Then I'll include a link to the poll with the last two scheduled discussions: Indiscretions & To Be/Not To Be.

As I said above, I was really put off by the manner of Richie's death. The whole arc didn't seem to really fit into the rest of the show - it was a lot darker and had a lot more emphasis on Duncan as a hero than I really liked. ^^

"I was really put off by the manner of Richie's death"

It was weird that Richie did not have his sword up and in a defensive position. In earlier episodes when they lurked around looking for bad guys, Richie always had the sword up and deflected the first swing from Duncan. Just thought this death scene would be more involved. Almost wish they had actually had a "fight" and all the time Richie was trying to tell him, - hey its me stop - what are you doing!!!! This way, Duncan can bail on the blame since he was just chop happy with the swing.
