Highlander (1992–1998)
8/10
Richie Ryan Ruins It
8 February 2021
I could never watch The Highlander back in the day when it was originally on television. I loved The Highlander movies, and I loved the concept, but I could not stand the incredibly annoying Richie (Stan Kirsh). Why he was even on the show made no sense. The Highlander wanted to keep a low profile, and all Richie ever did was to create trouble, bring attention to The Highlander, and be a big mess that Duncan MacLeod had to clean up after.

Why was Richie even in the series? Fortunately, now in the modern age of streaming video and DVD sets, I can watch every episode of The Highlander and fast-forward every time Richie starts talking in any scene. It is a blessing to be able to finally enjoy The Highlander without Richie (Stan Kirsh).

The Highlander is a great TV series, with lots of excellent action, thoughtful strategy by the various characters, and a lot of good philosophical situations. Combined with the movies, this is a great series that delivers in every way.
