Humor, magic, life lessons and people we wish we had in our lives. Okay, who wouldn't want a down-to-earth dude that can perform true magic??
This is a show meant for the whole family to watch together. Think there's something for everyone here. The charming Barnard Hughes plays Mr. Merlin, who teaches Zachary Rogers (Clark Brandon) not just magic, but right and wrong while giving the viewers some laughs along the way. Joining Hughes is Elaine Joyce as Alexandra, an assistant or go-between for Merlin and a council we never see.. She tries to give Zac a helping hand whenever he is at his wit's end. All these actors/actresses are just fantastic in their roles.
But something that seems to get overlooked in other reviews are the special effects in this show; they're quite impressive. Considering the time period, budget, it's amazing what they pulled off. You'll see some creativity in these effects, some of which are just flawless.
Even the theme music is A+
