15 Most Underrated Fantasy Shows Of All Time
We love the fantasy genre because it offers a sense of escapism and the opportunity to dive into a world vastly different from our own.Forever Knight'Years before the brooding vampires of "
Angel" and "
Moonlight" donned their detective apparel to become do-gooders, Nick Knight was the undead cop on the job. In the largely forgotten Canadian series "Forever Knight," Geraint Wyn Davies plays a vampire detective who works the night shift. Nick Knight hides his identity as a centuries-old bloodsucker, using his job on the Toronto police force as a way to atone for his sins. Natalie Lambert (Catherine Disher), the medical examiner, is the only one who knows his secret.
Nick is torn between his violent past and his attempt at a more humane present. His ex, Janette DuCharme (Deborah Duchêne), runs a nightclub in town, while his sire, Lucien LaCroix (Nigel Bennett), hosts a late-night radio show and attempts to bring Nick back to the dark side. Though cheesy at times, "
Forever Knight" is nonetheless a thoughtful series that takes the time to explore Nick's moral dilemmas without forcing unnecessary action. With its brooding tone, gothic look, and smart writing, "Forever Knight" deserves to be remembered as a '90s cult classic.'[/b]
