    The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

    Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

    It's really sad when you think of how much potentially great television has been canceled by Fox TV.It's easy to just think of Roar as some Dungeons and Dragons clone, but it was really so much more. Regardless of the genre of any television show, it's the characters that make or break a show, and Roar had some great characters. My two favorites where John Saint Ryan's Fergus and Sebastian Roche's Longinus. These are two really good actors who just don't get enough real work.Had Roar been able to stay true to its epic story roots, with Conor trying to reunite Ireland, then this could have been a great show.

    This show is one of the best! Especially the earlier episodes, full of drama and history.it was almost like a movie! Actors are really good at acting, plus they are really good looking too! This was pure elegance! too bad it got canceled, I was so sad. I was so into the show, I taped the later episodes, too bad I did not tape the earlier episodes, which are really the better episodes of the show. Is this show available on DVD? I would really like to see it again!! Where can I get it? well, if you haven't seen it yet, go see it

    When Roar first came out on TV, I adored it. I watched it every time it was on with my mom and was disappointed when the series ended. They claimed it was only a season finale, but never brought it back. It's been years now .. and .. I'm still waiting!!! Heath Ledger got his start on this show as the cute blonde haired Celtic prince. No one knew who he was back then, and when I first saw adds for '10 Things..' I started screaming that Conor was gonna be in a movie. Absolutely adorable, and the accent is always a plus.This show didn't deserve to be cut from the line-up. It was a good show, and more people watched it than FOX thought. Good thing Sci-Fi has picked up it's reruns. I now have the entire season on VHS to watch whenever I want.Maybe FOX will wise up and try again. Even if they can't get Heath to play the lead, they might be able to get someone worthy of filling his shoes. Though we might not like it at first .. to have the show back with someone just as gorgeous and just as good .. would be fine by me! Bring back Roar!!! And quit canceling the shows that are actually worth watching!!

    Before he became a household name and invaded the dreams of almost every teenaged girl in North America, Heath Ledger starred in a little known action adventure series called "Roar." I remember singing "Roar"'s praises when Fox first premiered it as a summer fill-in six years ago. It was a daring show--an action adventure series which took place in Celtic Ireland in the 5th century CE (1200 years before Shakespeare) starring a cast of unknowns. The story lines were great: a reluctant hero fulfill his destiny by uniting clans against the Romans. It lasted maybe eight or ten episodes, but it was a smart, imaginative, entertaining drama.(I watched an episode on Sci-Fi last night, trying to figure out where I know Sebastian Roche (Longinus, the immortal) from. He played heavy metal star C-Square in an episode of "Law & Order.")
