HLS5: 'The Messenger'

[ithildin]

Let's see if this episode generates more interest than 'Glory Days' did!

Highlander Season Five

The Messenger
Air Date: Nov. 1996

Richie's found a new teacher: an Immortal who preaches a message of peace. An Immortal who believes that all Immortals can lay down their swords and live together as brothers. An Immortal who claims to be the oldest of their kind still alive -- Methos. Will laying down his sword in the name of peace mean Richie will lose his head? And what does this mean for the friend MacLeod already calls Methos?

I have to agree with everyone else. Ron P just phoned it in. And I understand what David was trying to accomplish with the episode. It would also have been wonderful to put that doubt out there - is *our* Methos the real Methos or is he a fake?

And the contrast between the two characters and their thoughts about life could have been so compelling. Instead the performance was not up to par. Peter was great, of course. But Ron just didn't step up to the plate.

However, it is still one of my favorite episodes. It has alot of great scenes: the bed scene, the Methos-Methos confrontation, the bed scene, the bar scene when they tell Richie, the bed scene, the office scene when Methos tells them the story about the Spaniard, and the bed scene.
