archersangel: (jedi sheep)
[personal profile] archersangel
the quest is a fantasy-based reality competition series that premiered just this past thursday. i just watched it on HULU (ABC.com was giving me trouble) & so far i love it!

the premise (taken from wikipedia):
Real people are pulled out of their everyday lives and put into a fantasy world—two different worlds that's never been merged before. Twelve fantasy enthusiasts from all walks of life and backgrounds live out their own adventures and personal quests in an imagined world. Each episode, the mysterious landscape comes alive in a unique competition where contestants (called "Paladins") compete in a battle of mental, physical and team challenges that relate directly to the storyline. Ultimately, one by one, they are banished until there is one "true hero" left. But, this story is strife with a land full of malevolence, magic and mythical creatures that want to harm them while lurking in the nearby forest.

there are 7 women & 5 men, which is unusual. i thought they'd have only a few women or make it an even split.
at this point it's hard to say who might become the one "true hero." i'm thinking maybe shondo the MMA fighter, leticia the executive assistant, patrick the high school math teacher or bonnie the property manager.

it's done by a LotR producer & the creator of the amazing race. i hope it does well enough in the ratings so they'll keep it on. but then again, they might just go though all of the episodes, since they probably have them done anyway.

i'm making the tag for this the quest (2014) because there were a few things by that title.
