Introduction of Methos, got some Amanda, there's continuity and it's got the best villain the series ever had: Kalas.
Season 5 was really the beginning of the end. The 'evil quickening' stuff was kind of rediculousness. And then there was that First Evil like entity that plagued an already shortened season 6. Plus all the female guest-stars who were really trying out for the lead role on the Raven.
Adrian Paul really screwed the series over; he should've stuck with it a full seven years. But he had that 'movie career' he wanted to persue. Where *is* that 'movie career' anyways? Hell, where's his 'career'? Plus the good writers were jumping ship...
As a result, we ended up getting: Highlander: The Raven (season's worth of crap) and Highlander: Endgame (craptastic)
It's really too bad they had to have the franchise go out on such a low note.
My mom's a huuuuge Methos fan. Member of the fan club, used to go to cons. So when I started going to Buffy gettogethers, she was really in no position to stop or criticize me. ;-)
I just asked her about the DVDs, she doesn't know. But the Season 6 set sound dodgy. I *know* season 6 wasn't 22 episodes. Maybe it's the truncated season 6 plus 13 episodes of the Raven or something?
Season 3 is my favourite
