Kirpianuscus it remains one of movies who impose a realistic, coherent perspective about the fear about future. it is, in same measure, one of the most impressive exploration of the hidden aspects of life. and the references to mythology, symbols and faiths is always seductive for the precision. but the best part is the status of family story. a man protecting his wife and his daughter. front to obscure challenges. in expectation of a new millennium , with the same feelings of the year 1000 and the same refuges. Lance Henrikson does more than a good job. he gives a role who change the manner to understand the basic ingredients of every day life. because Millennium is not a fantastic series or one about the exoticism of supernatural. but about the meaning of existence. and the courage to build it.

jjnas It's to bad when a show like this comes along that has both great writing and a fantastic cast,but simply does not get the respect it deserves.This both happened at the time of it's airing and the lack of reruns you see of the show.In the almost 2 decade's since it's release I have only seen a rerun of the series once,and it was only for a few shows not the whole series.If you get the chance to watch the series I think you will be very impressed by the depth of characters and story lines that never failed to bring you back.The only possible reason I could have seen for the lack of support was the way the show made you take look deeply into a dark side of your being.Give it a chance you won't be disappointed ...

EricBosarge This was by far one of my favorite shows in the late nineties. From the pilot which is one of he best ever made, as shows struggle to get their feet under them, this one came out blasting. I bought the disc last week and even thirteen years later, this show is still rocking. The story lines, the people, the themes, etc. were and still awesome. It went up against Profiler which was awesome in its own right. Chris Carter really put an awesome show together and even though it fizzled and ended after three years, it was still awesome. I wish Fox had put as much effort in this show as The X-files, it would have lasted longer. Lance Henrickson was great as Frank Black. Some of the shows were very thought provoking, one of my favorites is the "Judge". Also, the one dealing with the Zodiac killer is a classic and should go down in the books as "Rocking". If you have not given this show a shot, DO!!!1

soulassassinx Basically this is about code breaking. All religions are the mother of theology is about breaking the codes. This is a show about breaking the codes shown in the cracks between profane life, the soul and the scrapheap antimatter in between.It is a pity that this show followed after The X-Files and was compared to it. Most criticism this show has gotten comes from people who don't seem to understand it. It's one of those shows you understand very little of if you don't see all episodes and that is just great.Personally I can't stand TV-series with one evening resolutions like that godawful CSI or relentless crap like "lawyer shows".Apart from all the brilliant TV-series made by HBO Millennium is one of those shows I real hate not being able to watch anymore. In fact it's so good and one of those shows you wish you never saw so you could see it anew.I am a high school teacher and teach religion, I spent three and a half years in the theological faculty and wrote me bachelors degree about the end of the world, i.e. apokalytica. The studies about the myths of the end of the world. Millennium digs down in the huge pile of myths and present a true and horryfying version of it set in modern society and really makes me remember the collective anxiety regarding the coming of the new millennia. The illness of the world and what aisle the human psyche is constant in the show and it makes you feel uncomfortable. TV4 in Sweden, like most of the time managed, to screw this show up, by airing it on different times or around midnight workdays and changing the airing days - their trailer for the show said it was about a former cop hunting serial killers. It's not, it's about the hunt for the truth in the obscure and sometimes the bizarre. The Swedish public expected to see a cop show and soon turned away thus banning it to airing times 2 o'clock in the morning between a Monday and tuseday.There are some episodes and elements that'll stick to you. As many others have said the episode namned The Curse of Frank Black is amazing. The scene in the lodge when the plague hits is also very good. Legion is a scary figure and sometimes it's presence makes me think of the best show ever on TV Twin Peaks.The Millennium group and the webs of conspiracies leaves the viewer with intellectual speculation and that is how I want to be left after viewing a show and not with some damn fingerpointining and sugarcoated morality Hoartio Caine style.Why this show was canceled is a damn shame but it's understandable. Most people are not into active viewing, they want sitcoms, reality shows and cop shows, but I tip my hat to the creators of Millennium and celebrate their work because we, who like to think for ourselves, should have som shows to watch too.
