HIGHLANDER TV SERIES - SEASON ONE DVD (3251 words)
Episode 2, "Family Tree" is a bloodless affair that parallels Ritchie's search for his birth parents with flashbacks to Duncan's own abandonment by his demon-fearing da--a fate unctuously identical to Connor's creation story from Mulcahy's first film.
Hopes remain high for Episode 5, "Free Fall."Guest starring Joan Jett at her butchest as a mysterious immortal that stumbles into Duncan's, Tess', and Ritchie's lives with a few dated grrrl tracks and the vertiginous realization that while Jett was never that great a singer, she's Pavarotti compared to her acting ability.
The level of woman fear in "Highlander" is so high (Tess is tranquilized in order to remove any threat to penile-burdened members of the audience) that it serves to bolster the case that this series and premise is the most interesting example of sublimated homosexuality in mainstream "straight" culture.
