Young Blades

Young Blades

"Young Blades" is an historical fantasy television series that aired on PAX (now ION Television) from January to June 2005, lasting only thirteen episodes before cancellation. Set in 17th century France, it followed the adventures of four Musketeers:

*d'Artagnan, son of the legendary d'Artagnan in Alexandre Dumas, père's novel The Three Musketeers.
*Jacqueline, alias Jacques, a woman disguised as a man while on the run for murder.
*Siroc, an inventor.
*Ramon, a poet.

Other main characters include the Musketeers' leader, Captain Duval; Queen Anne; Cardinal Mazarin; and a fifteen-year-old Louis XIV. The latter three characters are based on historical figures.

Despite its short-lived nature, it has developed something of a cult following.

Cast

*Tobias Mehler as D'Artagnan
*Karen Cliche as Jacqueline Roget/Jacques Leponte
*Mark Hildreth as Siroc
*Zak Santiago as Ramon Montalvo Francisco de la Cruz
*Bruce Boxleitner as Captain Martin Duvall
*Robert Sheehan as King Louis XIV
*Michael Ironside as Cardinal Mazarin
*Sheena Easton as Queen Anne

Episodes

The show consisted of thirteen episodes, shown in the following order.

Series Finale

The final episode of the series, "Secrets," remains controversial among the fans for several reasons:

*Its gratuitous use of flashbacks.
*Its (some say confusing) plotline in which Jacqueline and d'Artagnan meet Alexandre Dumas
*The fact that it left many things unresolved.

DVD Releases

There are currently no plans to release the series on DVD.
