Actress Name : Sara Wiseman
Character Name : Mab
Year : 1999


In tv show Hercules: The Legendary Journeys season 5 episode titled Once Upon a Future King aired 1999. Actress Sara Wiseman plays as villainess Mab.

Let's re-watch one of my childhood villainesses, let's see if Hercules: The Legendary Journeys as bad as modern western entertainment, better or worst, although, I think making TV show as bad as they are today requires more effort than it's required to make a good TV show LOL.

I'm so excited to watch this episode, yeah, it's my childhood villainess, but I really don't remember anything about the episode, I only recognized her when I watched the clip on Youtube, so, it's so nostalgic to watch the episode once more time.

Oh god, the intro of the episode is so bloody, they used practical effects tho, which I appreciate now.

Just after the battle scene we see our stunningly gorgeous sorceress, not having an HD version of this show is a sin.

The episode basically starts with Merlin sending both King Arthur and our villainess Mab in time to Hercules' era, saying "I can't stop you, so I'm sending you to someone who will".

It didn't take long for our evil sorceress and King Arthur to get their own army despite being in a different time and place, showing that their evil strength comes from within, not because their kingdom, that even being completely alone in the past, they manged to have an army under their command.

  God, the intro, I love this intro, especially with the two-headed monster and the music, like, so nostalgic, I love it so much.

Around 9 minutes our sagacious sorceress gave King Arthur motivational speech on who he's way more than being a king of this small army, and his goal should be bigger than that, and that they have to find a way to go back to their own timeline.

King Arthur is clueless on how he can go back to his timeline, so our villainess had to show him how, now with them back in time, Merlin is also in the same timeline as young, and all they have to do is to go after him.

Our evil queen being well-informed with legends, she knew that the Excalibur isn't in the stone yet, so she then guided King Arthur to get the legendary sword from the guardian of the Excalibur.

Around 15 minutes, our villainess Mab and King Arthur finally manged to find Merlin..

God, I love how Mab uses her magic powers, like the way she act, and how powerful she looks, you would never get that in any modern show, because thought police commission would censor such scene as they consider enjoying watching villains doing evil act is a sin, so, creators can't make such scene, villains like Mab can't act powerful and dangerous, and either they turn them good, make them as bland as possible.

Anyway, the gorgeous evil sorceress finally manged to capture Merlin raising him above her head, with her black painted fingers around his neck 💗💗💗.  

   Yet, capturing Merlin wasn't as promising as our sorceress thought, as he has no idea on how to get them back to the future, as he's still young and had no idea how he sent them back to the past in the first place, so, she decided to use plan B, killing Merlin, and if he's dead in the past, he can't exist in the future, thus, he can't send our sorceress back in time, yet, it seems that there was some kind of protective shield protecting Merlin, that not only surprised our villainess, but Merlin himself was surprised.

Ok, Arthur is probably gonna join the good side and turn into a good king, well, he's not my king anymore, and not worthy of Mab's evil powers.

Around 31 minutes, our evil queen face Hercules while he was freeing Merlin, so, she ended trying to kill Hercules with her powers, for Hercules to block the fireball with the Excalibur back at her, to make her freeze, yet our beloved sorceress isn't done yet, as she still have one last trick in her sleeves, a giant monster who is willing to face the good guys. You can watch the final confrontation here.

I swear, I just finished watching the first season of some Hungarian show, thinking, maybe it's not censored, yet, as expected with all TV shows today, it was made under censorship committee, while this episode is absolutely amazing, I would even say, this single episode is way better than every show made by Hollywood in the last year, every single one, truly awesome.
