The Librarians

While the premise of the show isn't completely original they do a GREAT job of masking this. I started watching this show after it was cancelled which is a d*mn shame. I had never heard of it until I stumbled upon it on Hulu. Shame on TNT for canceling such a great show after they clearly didn't advertise it very well. If you like Supernatural, Warehouse 13, Charmed, shows like that check The Librarians out

I like this tv series so much,funny,educational,good characters,interesting adventures around the world and also magic and mystery.old school type of fashioned tv show , absolutely worthy to watch.

This is the next generation of a family-oriented adventure franchise that started in 2004 and called "The Librarian".

The Librarian is a series of made-for-TV original movies from TNT, starring Noah Wyle as a librarian who protects a secret collection of magical artifacts.

A full decade later Noah Wyle's character is still "The" Librarian but the "library", who got him the job in the first place, "feels" that he needs help to his duties. So despite the objections of "The librarian", "the library" (yes I know too many ...quotes) hires 4 more persons (3 "geniuses" and a "federal" agent played by Rebecca Romijn) for his assistance.

Noah Wyle has a certain presence in his role, but unfortunately he isn't the main protagonist in this. He is more like a recurrent special guest star. That might be a deal breaker for some of the oldest fans of the librarian franchise but maybe you have to wait and see.

The feel of the series (based on the pilot) is over-the-top adventurous and although there are some heavy themes (stabbing by a sword, deaths, brain cancer etc.) the whole atmosphere feels kind of light, maybe even naive.

If you are an adult who is looking for an Indiana Jones-like premise you will be disappointed. If you belong to a younger audience you may find this entertaining.

The production is TV-OK (CGI is mediocre, the constant green screen is too obvious, and the "exotic" places they are visiting are obviously in a studio). The acting is deliberately exaggerated, the dialogs somehow ridiculous and the music more fancy than it should be, but that's common in a series probably made for kids.

Overall: I'm not sure that I will check the next episodes but someone else might find it entertaining.

Love the show, simple as that. fun and new and hope to save the show from the rigid men and their quest for profit and scandal. it was a slow start with some strange and not pleasant performances but it came to be and now it is here and must stay for another season. please suport the show .

NATO counter-terrorism Colonel Eve Baird (Rebecca Romijn) is hunting WMDs in Germany when Librarian Flynn Carsen (Noah Wyle) suddenly shows up. It's a world of magic which exists along ley lines across the globe. Magic has been fading away as it gets contained by artifacts. Librarians have been collecting those artifacts and knowledge to keep the world from falling into chaos. The Library sends Baird an invitation to be the new Guardian. They save new librarian candidates from attackers bend on stealing artifacts. The three new librarians are oil rigger Jake Stone (Christian Kane), thief Ezekiel Jones (John Harlan Kim), and janitor Cassandra Cillian (Lindy Booth) who has a brain tumor which gives her visions of knowledge. When the main library is lost in an alternate dimension, Jenkins (John Larroquette) brings them to a satellite branch.

This is perfectly fine silly TV fun. It's enjoyable without being too substantive. I've never seen the preceding movies so I have no connection with Noah Wyle's character. That's probably why I don't see the purpose of Wyle's back and forth. He comes in, he leaves, he comes in, he leaves. I'd rather have him do the pilot and leave the show to the newcomers. The group has fine chemistry but he keeps them in training wheels. This show reminds me of Warehouse 13 and it should be fun for any fans of shows like that.
