Adrian Paul had originally been cast to play Connor MacLeod- but he said he would rather play his own character and not one already played by someone else. Christopher Lambert did appear in the pilot of the series as his character from the movies to help fans see that Connor and Duncan are two different people.

All sequels to the first movie are despised by the fans and some even think the TV show ruined the franchise being set in the same universe.
