Review: |
: Relic Hunter
is a Syndicated TV Series starring Tia Carrere as the "female
Indiana Jones." The DVD contains 22 episodes each episode a
quest for a lost relic or object of some historical or monetary
interest. There is no mystery to each show's setup...an opening
teaser with the relic, in its own time, important ... but it
becomes lost. We find our intrepid crew of perky Claudia played
by Lindy Booth, clueless mostly but then she surprises you,
humorous sidekick, Nigel Bailey played by Christien Anholt and
our hero, finder of lost relics, Professor Dr. Sydney Fox employed
by a university doing their thing. Someone intrudes and makes
a request "Find the Relic"....the Quest is launched and a COMPLICATION
occurs like a curse, or a booby trap or just plain old bad juju.
Our hero(s) prevail and satisfaction, intellectual that is,
is the end result. With that formula in mind, the show has found
some unusual "relics" and built a show around it, giving us
enough history bogus or not, that the show is interesting. Some
"shows" are better than others and some shows leave the formula
behind... but the production values are commendable. The DVDs
are faithful to the show and much more interesting...no ads....
