Typical Season of Knightmare

[KFan]

Hi!

Lets imagine that you have a friend, who has never heard of Knightmare, and you can introduce them to the show by showing them just one episode, from one season. Which would you show them? Which season displays Knightmare at its best (those Knightmare experts among us can specify the episode too!)

(please explain your answer)

Series 6. It's Viewer friendly and not as *extreme* as the first three. It has Lord Fear at his best, and has victors. As far as the episode, either the one with Sofia's Death, or Ben's entire quest.

I would suggest an Episode of Series 6. One of the first 5 Episodes

[MPK]

I agree S6 has the best characters, Fear, Sidriss and Pickle!

Also the old helmet, and the causeways!

[Purgatory]

The pilot episode.

An episode from season 2. Seasons 5-8 haven't got the magic and darkness of the earlier seasons. They're just not Knightmare at its best.

[TheBrollachan]

Pilot episode? What was it like?

Anyway I think series 6 was the best as it mixed real footage (ie. Eyeshield and dwarf tunnels), and computer generated material. It had a nice mix of characters and Pickle instead of Majida.

[HStorm]

That's a point actually, Mephisto, have you watched the pilot episode? Where did you find a copy of that, because it was never broadcast?

[KFan]

Wasn't Tim Child going to send it to Illusion to put on Knightmare.com?

[HStorm]

Yes he's going o do that later in the year.

[Wolfshead]

Series 1-3 or 7-8, but it depends on who you are showing Knightmare too.

Series 6 wouldn't be my choice becuase too much of it is outside the Dungeon.

I'm not sure if it would be the best possible choice but as far as my memory goes back I started watching on series 4, the final episode with Giles as dungeoneer. Ever since that episode I became glued so I would probably show my friend that one, its a classic.

[MoanaLiza]

I'd probably show them an episode from series 3, probably the ep before Leo or Martin died. I'd show them one from s3 because s3's one of the most popular. For me that's the series that stuck in my mind and I remembered bits and characters from it.

Thread Conclusion...

I think what we have established here is that there was nothing typical about any of it. Each series was unique in its own special way.
