The Librarians

I really enjoy the non fiction light hearted detective shows. This is a great example. While the first 2 shows were a bit rocky I have really enjoyed the season but it was so short! I actually had not heard of the librarian movie prior to reading the post. I have a lot of professional friends in their 40's who also enjoy this show. Maybe it's because there is a bit of creativity and problem solving but after a hard day at the office it's an easy and fun way to unwind. I hope it returns for many more seasons that will be an actual season.

Also wish it wasn't the last season of Falling skies. That is another favorite!!

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.

I was intrigued by the promos for this series, but after watching the pilot I was afraid it was a dud. But after a shaky start it quickly gained its footing. The action is cheesy, the characters have yet to dig beneath their surfaces, but in the meantime, this show provides some wonderfully quirky storytelling. To me it's reminiscent of the very early seasons of Buffy or Stargate SG-1. The production value isn't great, but not in a bad way -- it adds to the charm.

On the whole, this show uses a lot of time-worn tropes but always manages to add a fresh twist. I'm afraid it won't last in this world of too-shiny programming, but I sincerely hope that The Librarians continues for many years yet. Possibly my favorite new show of 2014.

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

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.
