Azetcs in the woodpile, 1 August 2005
3/10
Author: onysia from West Coast

Every excellent series falters. Seems like it is fate when a series accomplishes the brilliant the fairies take their revenge. Well this is the one. The embarrassment. This one sinks. I can only imagine they kept the cast in the dark at the full extent of how bad it was by handing the lines to them page by page and locking them out of the daily rushes.

The cast struggles to make the stupid believable but even by force of arms this is not one that can be saved. If ever you have to throw one of your Sharpe's set of DVD's on to the fire this is the one to sacrifice. Posterity will thank you. The only thing I can remember being as bad was the "Yanks and Combs" episode of Star Trek.....need I say more?
