Case in point, Kevin Sorbo in the aforementioned Hercules. While I'd be the first to admit that his acting not Oscar caliber material, the guy has loads of charisma and screen presence, and didn't have me doubting that he was a Greek demigod (albeit a very loose interpretation of one). He was a big reason why I tuned in to watch Hercules every week back then, and even now. Shame though that he appears to be a bit of a git in real life (as evidenced by his disparaging remarks against Sam Raimi and Lucy Lawless), but hey, no one's perfect.

Baywatch and Silk Stalkings.
Yeah I know.
Oddly enough, I always found the sidekicks of each show to be more appealing than the respective series leads. I always loved it when Iolaus had a solo episode and Michael Hurst got a chance to strut his stuff. The guy's an underrated and fine actor that I sadly have not seen in any other film or tv show since Hercules ended. But man... did I ever lust for Renee O'Connor when she was Gabrielle on Xena. Goddamn she was a fine woman.Elf Witch said:I think all the actors on both Hercules and Xena had charisma. I loved Michael Hurst and think he is fine actor. And I really think if Kevin Smith had not died right before he was to make a big blockbuster Hollywood action film he would have become well known here in the states.
I though Baywatch was a decent show until most of the original cast left. Then Pamela Lee came in and it all turned to crap.Elf Witch said:I forgot those. I have all the Baywatch on tape and Silk Stalkings on DVD.![]()
Really, Silk Stalkings on DVD?Elf Witch said:I forgot those. I have all the Baywatch on tape and Silk Stalkings on DVD.![]()
