Review title: Unwatchable
Product review: After the moderate success of Sci-Fi's Dune (and subsequentially, Children of Dune) mini-series, Legend of EarthSea looked like it had promise. The production values were high, and the commercials promised a somewhat unique setting. That, unfortunately, turned out to be the furthest thing from the truth.Legend of EarthSea is little more than a pile of tired fantasy clichés, polished up by the decent production values. It wasn't enough to keep me interested, however. Every time a character began to talk, I cringed. There were several characters whose sole purpose was to provide needless, boring exposition.I'm sincerely convinced that Sci-Fi has fallen into the habit of hiring failed, hack fantasy authors to pen each new "original" series. I guess it accomplishes the task of increasing their profit margin, but it's gotten to the point where I'll only tune in to watch re-runs of older, far better shows like FarScape.
