Not to be confused with the film Forever (IV), both with Ioan Gruffold (pronounced Shawn Griffiths, IIRC).

Really enjoyed Forever Knight, and from what I can see the upcoming Forever seems about the same.

Yes, I understand the irony of reviving this character....

I expect I will need to check this one out.

I have enjoyed his work, mostly since King Arthur.

I've never seen Forever Knight, but I know a lot of people accuse Angel of being a rip-off of that show. However, when I heard about Forever I immediately thought of New Amsterdam.

Me too Brenda I think I was more shocked about the ending of that then Serenity, but it made twisted sense too... I mean, hello! it's Vampires! You knew it wasn't going to end pretty

I'm glad it got made when it did, I can't imagine how sterile and ridiculously improbably perfect the characters would be. I loved the...patina of the show.

I'm not familiar with Forever Night, is it available anywhere online?

I did draw the comparison to New Amsterdam, which was a show I did enjoy, despite it's cliche Immortal until you find true love premise.

Forever Knight was a show from 1992-96, with extensive syndication and reruns. Wonderful characters and storylines. Lead was a Detective or something who had lived some hundreds of years since he was a vampire. It is on IMDB, just spell Knight correctly.

Forever Knight is available on the disc-by-mail service from Netflix, and either by purchasing the DVDs from Amazon, or purchasing episodes or season passes on their Instant Video service (not the Prime service). Hulu doesn't have it.

Last promo I saw said he was only 200 years old in this new Forever.

Heck, that's not even Highlander range.

But it does appear in time to scam off the new Dracula Untold flick.

Sorry, I did not mean to imply that they were using a direct resurrection, just that they were retreading the idea.
Could we hope for a retread of some Firefly action? Or would that be blasphemy?

Has anyone found a season 3 dvd (new) at a reasonable price?

Passionately indifferent.

I just watched the pilot episode on Hulu, and as I suspected, it's much closer to New Amsterdam than it is to Forever Knight. He's immortal, not a vampire. In New Amsterdam, he knew how and why his "curse" started, but in Forever he does not.
