Sara awakens from a nightmare to discover the Witchblade gone and New York City in chaos after a bizarre homicidal spree. When she finds that the killers recently accessed Cyberfaust.net, a Web site run by someone who knows about the Witchblade, Sara suspects Kenneth Irons. Risking her sanity, she peruses the site and becomes helpless due to Cyberfaust's spell. She is forced to battle against the Witchblade and its diabolical new wielder.
This is the story of a New York detective, Sara "Pez" Pezzini. Her search for justice brings her into contact with the Witchblade, an ancient, intelligent, living weapon so powerful it can battle Earth's darkest evil forces. Week in and week out, "Pez" employs her skills as a police detective… More to fight crime. She finds she must employ the Witchblade to combat a much greater and frighteningly organized conspiracy of evil that threatens the very soul of humanity. As Sara tries to keep the secret of the Witchblade, do her job and have a personal life, she finds that her most formidable adversary may be the Witchblade itself.
She is an admitted alcoholic and has been arrested on more than one occasion. On November 24, 2003, she was ordered to enter a substance-abuse treatment program. Later, it was discovered she had injuries from acting and family problems which led to her alcohol abuse. Despite high ratings and… More critical acclaim, further production of Witchblade was cancelled a result of Butler going into rehab.
Hey everyone! I was wondering if this show's cancellation left you hanging or if they were able to have good closure? I'm interested in checking it out either way but just wanted to know what to expect. Thanks! :)
I just saw that Will Yun Lee is going to be one of the regulars on the new Bionic Woman this fall. It isn't Witchblade, but it's a chance to see him on another show where chicks kick @$$, so that's some consolation. Wouldn't it be cool if other Witchblade stars appeared as guest stars too? I would… More love to see Eric Etebari in anything!
This was one of my favorite shows! hide show
I have been a fan of the comic book ever since it came out. I was ecstatic when the show came on TNT. Yancy Butler was not my first choice as Sara Pezzini, but she made it work. The suit of armor as the Witchblade, I had some issue with, but I can see how expensive it would be to make the one from the comic book. I loved the storylines and how season one and two were connected (I would say more but I do not want to have any spoilers in my review). Recently it was announced the TV show was finally coming to DVD. All I can say is it is about time! My VHS tapes can only take so much playing.
Was it Joan of Arc? Perhaps? This was the story of a woman's struggle against her demons, and an age old battle of good vs evil. It always helps to have a sword that can be worn on the wrist. hide show
I remember my reaction when I saw the two hour pilot episode, I was just amazed. I thought the story line was awesome, the actors very well cast, and I couldn't wait for the following segments. I enjoyed how the sword, called "the witchblade" intertwined the past and present, flashbacks of some greater figures of our history. I hadn't followed the comic book previously, but immediately ordered a subscription to learn more. The series premiered on TNT, and I contacted the local cable company (I lived in a very small town) who supplied me with two promotional posters. I have since had those framed. I was an avid viewer for the two seasons that the showed aired, and was very disappointed when Yancy Butler's alcohol addiction and declining health gave Witchblade a bleak future. The eventually cancellation was a very sad day at my house.
Very influential indeed! hide show
Witchbade made a great decision on bringing in very high-quality performers.Rodger Daltrey was an excellent addition to a balanced regular cast. In the series, the incoming characters would always come as a pleasant surprise. If I am correct, t.v. and commercials have used well- appreciated music to keep the viewers happy and glued to the show. The Who seems to bring action and energy to all venues of the media. I was glued all through each episode. There was never a dull moment. Then, all of a sudden'the Daltrey guest appearances made the suspense and surprises that much more outstanding. This must have taken great team efforts on the writers and casting to come up with such wonderful chemistry. When sometime like this occurs,other behind-the-scene crews catch on like trend followers.Witchblade was original and ,not only, started trends but lead them in direction.I hope the creative crews continue with other projects.Thanks for the memories!

This was an awesome show that should be brought back. It made you think. This was my favorite summer show.I love this show, the story line, the fighting.I had to watch it every time it come on. Even the reruns.It was great to watch it in the summer when all my other shows was over for the season. It give me something to look forward to watch on TV for the summer.And to add insult to injury that they cancel it, the people at TNT have not release a dvd set of this show. The least they could do was that for the fans. But really what does that say about TNT. You watch their shows, made them money. You fall in love with some of their shows,and then they cancel it on you.They can say thank you for watching our shows by puting all of them on DVD.They can at LESS put out a list to have people sign it and tell what shows they love and if it is not on DVD what shows would they love to have on DVD. This was a GREAT show it watch..click here to vote to put it on DVD http://tcmdb.com/title/title.jsp?stid=333900
