My new favorite

It's hard to find good shows on regular TV that deal with the supernatural. I am so glad I discovered this show even if it is no longer being made. The only other good supernatural TV show I could find before was Buffy The Vampire Slayer which I love and it's spinoff Angel is OK, but lately both shows have been dissapointing me and I started looking for others.

Coming across Beastmaster has been good for me and I am sure it has been/will be for others. The actors are great and play their characters perfect. The direction is good as well and hardly misses a beat. Also there is beautiful scenery and great dialoge and storyline. It has everything people look for in a good show. I hope others will discover it an enjoy it as much as I have.
