Lucky Medallion of Atocha; Great Episode and a tremendous solo win.

Jeweled Necklace of Montezuma; An average episode and an infamously memorable temple run as Kelly drops the middle piece of the Monkey and cannot get it together in time.

[The Purple Parrot]

I'm home once again this weekend and i was fortunate enough to catch The Jeweled Necklace of Montezuma. I hadn't seen that one in forever, and i had a good laugh at Kelly dropping the monkey body over the edge, THEN still not being able to assemble it when they throw it back to her. If she would've gotten that monkey together quick enough, this episode could've been a close call.

(I was only able to catch today's second episode)

The Golden Earring of Henry Morgan: a great second season episode with the Silver Snakes being a smart team, but they had bad luck in the King's Storeroom. But it was funny after the tiebreaker when Shem messed up Kirk's hair  

[The Purple Parrot]

Today (Sept 16th, 2006):
The Lost Whale Bone of Pytheas
&
The Golden Earring of Henry Morgan

So, one frustrating loss and one exciting loss. I never really realized how troublesome and time-consuming the objective of the King's Storeroom could be until i saw The Goldren Earring of Henry Morgan episode. Getting unlucky in thta room really makes a difference sometimes.

As for the Whale Bone, Brittany left more than enough time for Damien to get the job done. He enters that temple with 1:21 left on the clock and traverses the bottom floor using the Bog-Shrine ladder to get to the Shrine. By the time he enters the Shrine, there's a mere 25 seconds on the clock.... SLOWEST CONTESTANT EVER! This should have been a win, easily.

Eww reruns.

[nicklegends]

Eww reruns.

Ha! We've been in them for eleven years, now.

...

Yes, I know what you actually mean. :wink:

I saw the Whalebone just last week!  

The Earing of Henry Morgan was good though, even though it was a loss.

But I want either the Benzibab episode, the Heart Pillow or the Nose Ring of Babe the Ox (even though Kirk didn't comentate the temple runs)

ANY temple run that was the best in the series.

yes he did

Here are the top five episodes of legends during its three year tenure:
5. The Levitating Dog Leash of Nostradamus (The Floating Leash according to Kirk)
4. The Lost Hornpipe of the Pirate Captain (Kirk sounds like a pirate twice during that show, making it more enjoyable)
3. The Ruby Earring of Benzibab (the only successful team run in less than two minutes and the perhaps the best team run in legends history)
2. The Iron Nose Ring of Babe the Ox (Joel handled the temple and then some.  He never encountered a temple guard and got by a temple spirit in the dark forest.  If he hadn't gone down the central column, this would have been an unbreakable legends record.)
1. The Heart-Shaped Pillow of Annie Taylor (This episode I absolutely love, literally.  This was the only episode that a pillow was the artifact and Missy was the first player to successfully retrieve an artifact in the center of the temple and doing it solo gives me more applause.  Truly the best episode of season 2, if not the entire series.)

Honorable Mention:
The Mussel Shell Armor of Apanupac
The Much Heralded Helmet of Sir Gawain
The Very Tall Turban of Ahmed Baba
The Snake Bracelet of Cleopatra
The Secret Map of the Bandit Queen
The Milkbucket of Freydis

Yeah, but it was sped up...sort of

[The Silver Monkey]

In the Golden Earring episode, If Ashley used the key she found in the Dark Forest, this could've been a successful run

[jfeathe]

At the tail end of the Helmet of Genghis Kahn, Dee announces "Portions of this program were edited not affecting the outcome of the game", a standard game show phrase, but one that (to my knowledge) was never heard again in a Legends ep.

Several season one episodes had that.  They replaced that in seasons two and three with the yellow words that stated the same.

It was used again in the Stone Marker of Leif Erickson

[Notundercovercop327]

in the third season when someone entered the kings stoorroom did any one ever just knock all three pots into the bin at once and then look for the key? it seems like the best stratagy instead of breaking one pot at a time and hoping you find the key

[The Green Monkey]

I don't think anyone did, but I haven't seen all the Temple Runs of Season 3 did. But that's a strategy I would use if I were ever in the temple.

Hey guys.  I was kicked out due to plagerism issues, but I'm back.  Seeing as Nick GAS is in a new cycle, and I've already done reviews for almost all the episodes, I'll just be commenting on episodes when I see fit, to avoid further complications.

And, again, sorry for any inconvience I might have caused when writing my reviews.  I tried (and failed) to prose them in my own words.  So, apologies.
