-shame- I have to admit it, I love them both. They're so crappy. They appeal to the ten-year-old in me. It's just difficult to suspend disbelief, like I said, when you know all the locations and have seen 90% of the cast either in real life or in stupid TV bank commercials. It just doesn't work so well. I mean, *you* imagine trying to watch a series about heroes from ancient Greece fighting monsters, but it's set in your backyard or a park you drive by every day. See what I mean? There's no way.
