I would say this was like that whole Twilight thing where people hated the choice for Edward (I can’t believe I just referenced Twilight) but in this case the writers didn’t try at all to bring Nicci to life. Also, if you’ve read the books you will know that Nicci is supposed to have luscious blonde hair and blue eyes and always wears a black dress, it’s just part of her character so no one who’s read them was happy with her casting. It was something really special in the books and I hated that they gave that to Leo.
He used feeding chipmunks as punishment for the Mord’Sith, trying to tame them.
I didn’t hate it- I’ve accepted that the books and the show will always differ, but the chipmunk thing shouldn’t have been done here because in the books it was all Richard. What did you think of “Dark?” Share your thoughts in the comments.īook readers will have hated what they did with this episode. I missed seeing Richard wield the Sword of Truth - that was the biggest downer for me. (The truth is, I’ve never disliked an episode of Legend of the Seeker.) Visually, every episode looks as good as a movie, and “Dark” was no exception. Overall, I liked this episode, though it was not one of the best of Season 2. I want Richard back as the Seeker ASAP, but I wouldn’t mind seeing more of Leo if it means more character growth for Cara. Do you think the flirtation is going anywhere? I’m curious to know what you guys think of Leo. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next week. It was so cute to see him coax a giggle out of the immovable Mord-Sith, and even cuter to see her smile secretly to herself. Although he’s no Richard Cypher, I love Leo’s scenes with Cara - especially their conversation about the chipmunks. That is, of course, the newly appointed Seeker, Leo. I think her best moment was her physical portrayal of dark ecstasy after Nicci absorbs Richard’s power.Īnother new character was introduced this week. I thought, Come on, there’s no way Richard’s falling for that! When she’s just being her evil self, she’s more interesting, at times even reminding me of some of Angelina Jolie’s roles. When Nicci feigns vulnerability and pretends to be afraid for her life, I found her kind of annoying. From my perspective I think Blalock did an adequate job, though I wasn’t blown away. What did you think of Jolene Blalock‘s guest role as Sister Nicci? I’ve finally borrowed Stone of Tears and am just starting on it, so I don’t have any preconceived notions about the character. He observes little details, puts the pieces together, figures out what Sister Nicci’s game is, and outwits both the Sisters of the Light and the Dark. I enjoyed seeing Richard’s gift for ferreting out the truth highlighted in this episode. Were they evil, good, overzealous? For a while they kept Richard guessing too. The Sisters of the Light kept me guessing this week.
