This show was fabulous. I am an Irish Studies MA degree holder and while some things they did I know were not 'period' or authentic it really held my interest. I too was sooo disappointed when this show disappeared. I only know one other person that actually watched it and that was my ex and he watched it with me! He too, Irish Studies Major.Heath Ledger was amazing and the writing was great. I would go on to see Xena and Hecules and mistakes Raimi for being involved in Roar. Perhaps other directors went on to work for him, I don't know. But it was great.I have always kept an ear to the ground hoping that it would run somewhere in re-runs and never heard anything. It would be nice to hear something but probably syndication might be expensive with Ledger now? Who knows.

If one sits to watch 5 straight hours of anything, it might get boring. But taken an hour at a time, this was a tremendous series. The scenery and music are great, the story lines are interesting, and 7 years later it is fun to see what these actors looked like back in the day.I am glad that Sci Fi is re-showing the series. I will record (TiVo) it when it airs, but watch an hour at a time during the winter rerun season.And I think I will create my own set of DVDs of the series -- too bad FOX Network. I would have paid you a lot of money for DVDs of this series.

This was such a great show and i watched all the episodes i could. it had me hooked. so did Conor, what a hottie. when i later saw Heath in "10 Things I Hate About You" i knew i had seen him somewhere. I was so surprised to see that it was the young Heath Ledger who had played Conor. Why was this show canceled? it was a really great show. you should at least show the re-runs.

I was facinated by this series. I found the premise well-thought out and for the life of me I can't understand why public response wasn't stronger. I think now that Heath Ledger has done some major motion pictures in the Us they should run Roar again and see if it catches on; even if they never make any more episodes I really think all the people who worked on this show deserve a second chance. Perhaps the timeing wasn't right the first time but re-running it is an idea with serious merit. I'm not for sure how many episodes there were since I used to tape the shows and watch them again and again. If there was a way to see the Roar again I would do it.
