I'm surprised by the negative feedback I've been reading and hearing about this series. Do not compare it with series like 'Xena' or 'Sinbad', because this is obviously a different attempt for fantasy/adventure. Sure, the story has nothing to do with the real Tell, so what? At least the main character doesn't behave like an invincible hero. I believe that, in a kingdom like Kryll, it's okay to have crystal arrows, wizards, rebels, faeries, and wolf-men... Those of you looking for some kick-ass fighting scenes will be disappointed, because that's not the point of the series. The characters of Aruna and of Leo were very well performed, despite the sometimes thin dialogue. I would say this is not bad, if not compared to other fantasy/adventure series. And the theme song is somewhat appealing.

I have seen all of this from 1st episode down to the last, being a regular YouTube visitor because of this I studied the characters, story lines, and I must say my main favorite episode was the the spirit of kale.
Kalem never fails to defeat two main evil characters even when they try to get too close to the camp. The scripts was most impressive, the costumes. Whether the legend of William tell was a bad film or not to some people I found it most entertaining not just for me but for my 5 year old children who seem to have a strange taste for teenage aimed films.

BEAUTIFUL SCENERY AND GREAT ACTING!
intuitive7 August 2002
I unfortunately did not see the series in its entirety, but of what I viewed, I was most impressed. I feel comparisons to 'Xena' or 'Hercules' is without credence. Just because of similarity in era, this surely must NOT dictate that the storylines be relative!
Perhaps an open minded approach, would lend itself to a greater appreciation of the tale at hand. The lack of an over abundance of the normal predictable violence, fields a capacity to hold ones attention, via pure salubrious entertainment and I for one, find that refreshingly welcoming!
I found the actors very believable, in particular the character of 'Drogo'in the episode titled, "The Lotus Eaters", in a scene in the forest with his dad.(or is it??) I am a very hard person to please, where television/movies are concerned, therefore I am perplexed at the negativity of one particular viewers comments! I guess some people are just happy being miserable!
My summary: If you have a chance to catch this wonderful series, please do so and judge for yourself! It is awesome family viewing, with breathtaking scenery and 'Quality' acting!

Democracy

This series is a series that clearly shows human kindness, democracy and the right to live.
"Legend of William Tell" is a captivating adventure that skillfully weaves together historical drama, thrilling action, and a touch of mythology. This timeless tale of heroism and rebellion is brought to life in a way that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats.
The film's strongest asset is undoubtedly its protagonist, William Tell, portrayed with conviction and charisma by the talented lead actor. The character's journey from an ordinary man to a symbol of resistance is well-developed and resonates with the audience. The film successfully balances the personal struggles of Tell with the broader political and social issues of the time, creating a compelling narrative that goes beyond mere action sequences.
Speaking of action, the film excels in delivering intense and well-choreographed fight scenes. The archery skills of William Tell are showcased in a series of breathtaking sequences that add an extra layer of excitement to the story. The cinematography is commendable, capturing the picturesque landscapes and medieval settings with an eye for detail.
The supporting cast also contributes significantly to the film's success, with notable performances from key characters such as Tell's allies and adversaries. The chemistry between the characters feels authentic, enhancing the overall immersion into the world of the legendary hero.
While the film is largely praiseworthy, there are moments where the pacing feels a bit rushed, particularly during the exposition. Some additional scenes providing further context to the historical backdrop and character motivations could have strengthened the narrative.
The musical score deserves special mention, as it complements the on-screen action and emotion, elevating the overall viewing experience. The soundtrack effectively captures the essence of the medieval setting while adding a modern touch to keep audiences engaged.
In conclusion, "Legend of William Tell" is a well-crafted cinematic experience that successfully breathes new life into a legendary tale. With a compelling protagonist, thrilling action, and a visually stunning backdrop, the film offers a satisfying blend of entertainment and historical drama. While a slightly more deliberate pace could have enhanced the storytelling, overall, it stands as an enjoyable addition to the genre of historical epics.

i have seen most of the episodes. even though its a kids show i love it. i know kieren was in adventures of swiss family Robinson, a episode of charmed last season, beth Allen plays amber on the tribe, Katrina Browne was in street legal ,young Hercules and power rangers ninja storm, drew nemia was in the tribe a few times as fisheye, Nathaniel lees was in the last two matrix movies. b/c of wam canceling William tell i only get to see them in these shows/movies sometimes. I'm glad they have moved to different stuff. i hope someone brings the show back here in the states. the scene where aruna (Katrina) had to fight William (kieren) was really kool.
Poor
Mangetou19 May 1999
I saw one episode of this dross on a cable channel in Portugal. I would recommend everyone to see this, as I do not believe that worse television has yet been made. The acting was weak, and yet was one of the better features, although the costumes were pretty good, and the sets were okay. However, the dialogue was truly dire. But better than the plot or setting.
The "story" is a nonsense of various science fiction and fantasy cliches, with freedom fighters and wicked overlords and innocent princesses.
The plot (for that one episode) was pitiful. The heroes achieved all their goals, and then decided to carry on fighting for freedom - which they had just won!
I have trouble believing that anything this bad got made - and I must see it again to confirm.
