Gosh, it sure was nice to see Richard’s father and brother again, wasn’t it? Looking back at a more innocent time when Zedd was still that crazy old hermit who talked to his chickens. Oh, who am I kidding, this episode was complete and total bullshit! Younger viewers may not remember, but there was a time when the “clip show” was a staple of the television landscape. But we’re only twelve episodes in, so do we really need a refresher? And that framing sequence tried but was still pretty lame.
Oh no, Darken Rahl wants to know where the third box is … so we’ll move it. Dumb! In the information era we’re living in, there’s really no point for a clip show and there’s no excuse for one twelve episodes in. Legend of the Seeker isn’t even that complex of a storyline. I can understand the recap episodes of Lost and Battlestar Galactica, but those don’t even pretend to be real episodes because I think the creators know better. Shame on you, Legend of the Seeker! What’s next, “a very special” episode where Richard reveals he was “touched” as a child?
