The story began a few weeks ago when eleven normal people were chosen to visit the fantasy land of Everealm as paladins.
During each episode of the "reality" show, the paladins passed through trials to become the one true hero.
The show progressed with some wonderful effects and makeup.
We were treated to awesome spectacles like a fire-breathing dragon, a banshee whose cry sent chills up my spine and Verlox the Darkness who could have been pulled from any fantasy novel as the Big Bad.
There were also amazing moments from the contestants/paladins themselves.
Halfway through the show, one of them, Bonnie, sang a beautiful song she had written just about Everealm.
Near the end, Shondo gave an impassioned plea as to why he should be the one true hero to save the land.
The Quest also has a strong fan following already with the twitter hashtag #TheQuestArmy.
If you haven't seen it, you can watch the episodes on Hulu.
If you don't want to sit through the whole thing, just catch the last 30 minutes of the finale.
It is EPIC!!!
It even ended with a teaser at the end for a possible second season.
If ABC doesn't choose to pick it up, someone must.
This show would do well on SYFY, but I would be willing to watch it on any channel chosen to renew it.
Whatever its fate The Quest must continue!
Did you watch the show? What did you think? Let me know in the comments...
