What if the Hercules & Xena TV series had been produced by the Asylum? I mean the worst acting, the worst special effects, the worst plots, and the worst characters. You'd get Conan the Adventurer, the TV series! Hercules & Xena may have been B-grade schlock, but at least they were professionally made and very, very entertaining. This series? The exact opposite.
I made the mistake of buying the entire series on DVD, having never watched an episode beforehand. Oh God, was that money down the drain! I forced myself to watch every episode (and believe me, it was torturous) in hopes of finding something, anything, redeeming. Nope, nothing! The more I watched, the more I wanted to smash my head hard enough to develop amnesia, so I could forget this godawful crap. If you're a fan of Conan, don't watch this! Conan the Destroyer is an Oscar-winning masterpiece compared to this! If you're a fan of fantasy roleplaying games, don't watch this! This is the equivalent of playing in a group with an incompetent, simple-minded DM, and a bunch of idiotic, insipid players. No! NO!!
