I think I spoke about this a long time ago....possibly even made a thread. Sounds right up my alley. I love me the crusades and the Templars!

Set in 1300's dealing with Templars on History chan. I'm really interested in checking this out! Will post a trailer when one is out but a tv spot just aired during Vikings. Excited!

Hopefully there's some "fucks" in it. It's 2017!

Ha nope. Though that's all you ll find on YouTube when you search for it. The tv spot last night just showed a bloody temp helmet.


I added a link to the aforementioned clip in my post above. :lol:

Yeah I saw it. Even that isn't coming up still on YouTube. I think it's strange it hasn't.

I did find this last night though when my Ambien was kicking in at full power and about pissed myself loln.




Hah, way back when I first learned this was shooting, I found that too when I searched up the title on YT. Hilarious!

I've heard it's set for a Fall debut, so we'll likely get a full trailer soon, probably May?

Bout time. Looks ok. Didn't wow me like I hoped it would.


I think so far my only real problem (and it's minor) is that this isn't about the original 9 Templar Knights forming the Order and finding the grail under Solomon's Temple, and the rest of the First Crusade...which is my fave time period...but the latter of the Order almost 200 years later. Looks to be the Fall of Acre, home to Paris, and the trials of the Templars there. However, the good thing is that this means we MIGHT get Saladin in flashbacks...which would be ideal!

I'm sure we will get flashbacks to earlier in the Crusades anyways...but for now this is fine, if not my fave period.

Also, isn't it funny how easily Dubrovnik's old city (which also doubles as King's Landing on GoT and Venice on Doctor Who) passes for 12th century Paris pretty easily!

I also thought this was supposed to star Jeremy Renner? Didn't see him in there.


He is executive producing it. It sounds like he MIGHT pull a guest star appearance, but that's it.

Looks interesting. I'll watch it.

Just noticed this thread after chatting to QT about it in the other thread. I'm in. While I'm not quite as big a Templar/Crusades nut as QT it is something that very much fascinates me. And I too would love to see a show about the formation of the Templars in the holy land but maybe if this makes enough money they'll do a prequel series?

Yeah, it would be sweet to see an actual Crusade-era based show about them (possibly from their initial incarnation in 1096, through whatever they allegedly found beneath the remains of Solomon's temple in Jerusalem) ...but I agree it's probably WELL out of budget for now...but yeah, a future prequel show could be in the cards.

As long as it doesn't follow that horrendous series of books by Jack Whyte (I think we spoke about them before. Very disappointing...) cos that would be an extremely boring show!

Oh neat. Helmet cam. What a novel idea, yet ponderous.

Can tell some some serious cashola has been spent on production. Wonder if they will keep that up or if they blew their load on this first episode to hook viewers in.

Damn, the actress playing the Queen sure looks like a younger version of the actress who played Catelyn Stark on HBO's Game of Thrones.

Damn but that was a slow start though. I mean that wasn't even setting the table. That was digging through the silverware drawer trying to pull together the knives, forks and spoons required for the dinner.

I haven't watched yet, but as a student of the Crusades, and the Templars especially...I will be the deciding factor folks, okay? :p

Ok, i'll let the History channel know to hold off on any further broadcasts until you've weighed in.

Well, there was enough there to pull me in next week (probably). But yeah, besides the first 10 min when Acre fell during the siege (and all the neato helmet cam footage), the rest of the episode could definitely be described as boring. IMO.
