This week the crew discusses more details on how you can help Legend of the Seeker get a 'Third Season' we also share an interview with the infamous Deej of 'Cracky Recaps' fame and to top off the episode we have some discussions about topics suggested by our listeners!

Kevin, Kurt and Jenn come together for a quick update about the renewal status of the series as well as to clear up any misconceptions that may have arisen from some recently released news from the Tribune Company about their interest in 'Season 3'. Find out what you can do to help make sure we get our much desired Season 3 of Legend of the Seeker!

In this episode Kevin, Kurt and Jenn discuss the hilarious and thought provoking episode 'Princess'. From Pygmalion-like story lines to introspective battles for self-worth the crew considers both the fun and the deep from the latest episode.

The trio discusses 'Hunger' and the implications it has on Cara’s character and her place within the group. Also, we see the return of two characters from season one and of course discuss lots of news and happenings in the Seeker fandom!

Kevin, Kurt and Jenn are back to discuss the Kahlan-centric episode 'Torn'. The trio discusses Bridget Regan’s amazing performance, Kahlan’s relationships and gads of news and interviews.

"John Rhys-Davies guest-starred in an episode just recently," Craig revealed to me. "He's a really great person."

While you've been getting stuck into your new years resolutions the second series of Legend of the Seeker has been well underway over in the US. I know, it's not fair, they get everything sooner - except for New Year's Day - we celebrated that first! Ha!

Thankfully we don't have to wait much longer as the second season premiers over here in February.

Anyway, the last time we saw Richard he was busy sending Darken Rahl to the underworld. That's a bit like hell, only not as hot. Air-con is a life, er, saver.

And ONE of the good things about watching a fantasy series is that just because your favourite character dies (you won't believe how many Darken Rahl fan's there are - my Legend of the Seeker fan site is full of them!) it doesn't mean they won't make an appearance - or two.

Keisha Castle-Hughes has signed on to star in an episode of syndicated hit "Legend of the Seeker."

Castle-Hughes will be filming her appearance this week, shooting in her native New Zealand. The 19-year-old actress will play a young woman claiming to be the living embodiment of a God. She apparently has plenty of power to go with that confidence, so it's up to Richard (Craig Horner), Kahlan (Bridget Regan) and Zedd (Bruce Spence) to find out the truth about her identity.

In 2004, Castle-Hughes became the younger performer to be nominated for the Best Actress Oscar for her work in the feature "Whale Rider" (losing to Charlize Theron for "Monster"). She later played Mary in "The Nativity Story." If you've been missing her since then, she appeared in something called "Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger" and in the New Zealand telefilm "Piece of My Heart."

Legend of the Seeker fans, the show’s sixth episode (from the weekend of Dec-12-13) didn’t make the top 25, but its 2.671 million average viewers was a season high and up almost 400,000 from the previous week and about around 90,000 higher than the season two premiere which had previously been the season’s high.

Legend of the Seeker fans, the show’s fifth episode of the season two didn’t make the top 25 but it had an average audience of 2.30 million, that’s down from the fourth episode’s 2.408 which was down from the third episode’s 2.504 million which was up from the 2.24 million for the second episode and still off a bit from the season two premiere which averaged 2.58 million viewers.

Episode titles

Season two of the syndicated fantasy series Legend of the Seeker has seriously taken things up a notch (all while keeping dastardly but dead hottie Craig Parker employed as Darken Rahl, no less!), and we are positively dying to know what happens next in the Midlands, so we dialed up show runner Ken Biller for the exclusive scoop on the remainder of season two.

Here's what we learned about the episodes to come, including the significance of Richard Cypher's (Craig Horner) detour from the throne, how Kahlan Amnell's (Bridget Regan) burden as the last Confessor could tear her away from the Seeker, and the magical loophole that might allow them to finally have some forbidden sex...

Legend of the Seeker fans, the show’s third episode of season two didn’t make the top 25 below but it had an average audience of 2.504 million. That’s up from the 2.24 million for the second episode but still off a bit from the season two premiere which averaged 2.58 million viewers...

Legend of the Seeker fans, the show’s fourth episode of season two didn’t make the top 25 below but it had an average audience of 2.408. That’s down from the third episode’s 2.504 million which was up from the 2.24 million for the second episode and still off a bit from the season two premiere which averaged 2.58 million viewers.

Richard, Kahlan, Cara and Darken Rahl are all under a love spell, thanks to a sorcerer who crossed paths with Zedd. Watch their heartfelt pleas for companionship, then record and upload your personal video message to the person you wish to court.

Share your "Seekers of Love" videos and their responses with your family and friends. You also have a chance to win a set of five individual "Legend of the Seeker" Season 2 14"x20" limited-edition prints; one of each character, Richard, Kahlan, Zedd, Cara and Darken Rahl. Each print is personally autographed by the actor: Craig Horner, Bridget Regan, Bruce Spence, Tabrett Bethell and Craig Parker.

Please note that for a variety of reasons, these numbers were even more delayed than the normal delays for syndicate ratings, but hopefully we’ll have the numbers for the week ending 11/22 up later today (12/2).

Legend of the Seeker fans, the show’s second episode of season two didn’t make the top 25 below (average audience 2.24 million, down a bit from the season two premiere which averaged 2.58 million viewers).

[SISTER NICCI] - 20's.. Breathtakingly beautiful, alluring, brilliant and ultimately amoral. Nicci is a Sister of the Dark in disguise, hoping she can manipulate Richard (Craig Horner). RECURRING

The season two premiere of Legend of the Seeker averaged 2.583 million viewers the weekend of November 7-8 with a 1.7 household rating. By household rating it was ranked tied for 45th out of 129 syndicated shows measured for the week.

The 2.583 million was the average audience, but you might wind up seeing the number 3.528 million thrown around, too. That’s the gross average audience for the premiere. Gross average audience is a metric commonly used in syndicated ratings where viewing of repeat broadcasts during the measured period *is* counted. But for apples-to-apples purposes of comparing to other shows you should use the 2.583 million number.

Ted - "Now on the way to New Zealand to do another Legend of the Seeker! I'm coming back as Sebastian. Yesssser!"

Bridget - "Ted Raimi back down undah!"

Over the summer and the early part of the fall, I decided to catch up on what is effectively the only high fantasy series currently on TV, Legend of the Seeker. Given the generic sword and sorcery plot and the Sam Raimi production label I went in assuming Seeker would be a latter-day Hercules or Xena venture, which is to say campy and thoroughly disposable. What I discovered is that, while the show still leans heavily on genre conventions and has a mostly limited cast, Legend of the Seeker is actually a fairly entertaining series with a more engaging sensibility than its pulp origins suggest. Season 2 premiered this weekend, either on Saturday or Sunday depending on local broadcasters. I plan on covering the show every week, if only because I don't think Seeker really gets the critical attention it deserves... Read More.

So, what is to come in season two? We heard tell of leather-clad bad girls, jealous wenches and some sexy body-swapping...

Richard and Kahlan have two big problems this season: (1) They kinda opened a Hellmouth when they defeated Darken Rahl last season. Oops. (2) A Mord Sith named Cara (Tabrett Bethell) has attached herself to Richard and Kahlan's little family out of a deranged allegiance to Lord Rahl, a title that Richard inherited upon the late (evil) lord's death...

If you've been following the series 2 cast information religiously, you'll know already that Charisma Carpenter will be playing the part of a Mord'Sith named Triana.

For some time now, we've already seen Triana in costume in this image.

But now we have the full, slightly different, unedited version.



She's looking mighty good as a Sister of the Agiel. I wonder where her loyalties will lie?
