Ugh -- thanks, BT! Now I have Benny Hill earworm right before I go to bed.
I seen you without your clothes on before. Never thought I'd see you naked.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hec, that's a pretty fair assesment, although harsh on the earler seasons and gentle on the last. In summary: Methos!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
In summary: Methos!
I concur.

Yeah. That's really all I've got right now.

I mostly agree about Highlander with added:
Killing Tessa off was bogus, even if the actress wanted out.
Shirtless training sequences, YAY.
Some stand alone episodes were genius.
Guest stars were awesome...mostly.
In conclusion: Methos!
eta: The series finale was lame, but the soundtrack made me cry anyway.

I'm with ita and Cass. I have enormous affection for Highlander. I used to sneak downstairs to watch it at 2 or 3am when I was just a wee proto-fangirl. And Duncan and Methos set sail my first slash ship.
In summary: Methos!
And also: Amanda!

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
I never saw season 6, but I did see the season 5 finale, where Duncan kills Richie by accident. It's pretty gutting. And no surprise so many fans rejected that.
But it was fun, for what it was: pretty men and shiny swords, and beautiful women with shiny swords, and lots of costumes, and at least two sword fights per episode.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yes, pretty much what everybody else said about H:tS. Aside from shirtless training scenes, one thing I really loved about first season was the relationship between MacLeod and Tessa. It was one of a handful--Wash and Zoe being another--of mature het relationships portrayed on tv. Also, confirmed member of Clan Denial here.
Also, Han shot first, Wash is still flying. My denial fu is strong.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
The critters eat my crocuses (thank goodness I posted on facebook, since that was the only twenty-four hours they were up!) and grape hyacinth, even though they're not supposed to. But they don't eat any of my alliums, although I don't have those this year, FAIL, and last year I tried daffodils and irises, both of which grew to fruition. So more of those next fall. But right now, there's nothing. Which, okay, yes, snow.

Mmm, Methos. I'll have to see if Hulu still has all the eps up.
