I agree with Gunthar, although I would not go so far as "astoundingly".  I
was hoping for a lot more, but all in all I still enjoyed the show.

Roar was just a little TOO Braveheart for my taste.  Braveheart was too
special to be ripped off.

He didn't look anything like the Sean Connery that I know! Not nearly sexy
enough! ;)

Sigh. Me too.

The only other complaint I have is that there was too much roaring!!  It was
so pushy, like see, that's why we named it Roar, doesn't it fit? 

 All in all I did enjoy the show and I will watch it again, but with a bit
of a sad heart for what could have been.
