Last season, ABC tried a murder mystery reality show with the Whodunnit? series. It didn’t do very well. Now they’re trying another fantasy competition with The Quest. Will this one be a ratings success and be renewed for a second season, or will it be cancelled too? Stay tuned!
On The Quest, a dozen everyday people are transported to a fantasy world called Everealm where they have adventures and compete to be the last “true hero” remaining. The cast includes Peter Windhofer, Jan Hutter, Marcello de Nardo, Susanne Gschwendtner, Stephanie Buddenbrock, Florence Kasumba, Mai Duong Kieu, and Doug Tait.

What do you think? Do you like The Quest TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a second season?
My husband and I love the show. The abilities of the paladins should be way better. It should be more believable that the paladins actually possess the ability to defend the queen. The outfits were good. And when the enemy is all around you dont walk only on the road and with lanterns. That didnt convince me that there was any danger. The queen needs to have a husband, so she has an heir. Please make another season.
We LOVE The Quest. It was incredibly frustrating to have so few people even know it was on. Somebody did a very bad job advertising this show. It was extremely entertaining for our entire family. We hope hope hope there will be another season! Please. Can we have more than One True Hero, please?
Was a fan of Whodunnit? As well as The Quest I mean it work perfectly with the athletic crowd and the nerdy crowd. I agree with some comments posted that to many challenges were physical in nature and would enjoy more mental challenges that could also potentially get the viewing audience involved.
I loved this show so much and with the cliffhanger ending I definetly think we should have a second season. This is by far my favorite reality tv show, I love the story line and the characters and I will be waitng for news about the second season.
Love the show!!! I like that it has a story line especially in that time period with the castle & dragons & monsters,,I like it alot better than any other reality competition show I’ve seen,PLEASE DO ANOTHER ONE,,I’LL BE SURE TO WATCH!!
I liked the show, but found it a little annoying at times that the challenges were obviously designed for men. And, like Casey said, they had to be taught things that people in Everrealm already knew. Which makes Sir Ansgar the obvious choice for Hero. Incidentally, it was to obvious from Vizier’s first scenes that he was going to be he bad guy and it was utterly ludicrous that the Queen didn’t have a taster. Also, if she’s the last in her line, shouldn’t she be getting busy having babies? Preferably with Sir Ansgar, because he was awfully cute. Unless… Read more »
You have an awfully sexist view on the capabilities of women.
I loved it! and pick me for season 2!
I love this show. Actually I want to be on this show. I’d probably be banished the first episode but the lead up would definately be an opportunity of a lifetime. Magnificently awesome!
I love this show, it has action, feats that must be won to go forward, fantasy, monsters as well. This show is a keeper, do not cancel.
My husband and I really enjoyed The Quest. We found the story engaging; the production value excellent; the actors believeable and good; and the contestants engaged and competitive. We particularly liked the mixing of medieval history and fantasy. Although the show as competitive, the team spirit was important and taught good life lessons. We also liked that the first action with the sun spear was to bring back the other paladins to fight with The One True Hero as she defeated Verlox. This reality show gave true value by showing what an individual can do as well as what a… Read more »
I think that it is a good show and it should be renewed for next season.
I think it’s a great show with potential. Stronger female competitors, more time spent telling the story and a little less interviewing the contestants could go a long way. I would watch a second season, but would expect some improvements – which is typical for a first run reality show. Good concept, great artists and directors, poor writers and casting crew.
My husband and I love this show, please continue it, don’t cancel another show we love!
My husband and I are totally invested in this show. The balance and blend of people is great. This is a show that I can let my children and grandchildren watch.
First off, I REALLY wanted to love this show. When I heard about it I thought, My lord what a great concept. But the execution of the concept is lackluster to be kind. The balance between the male and female contestants is a joke. For instance, the males are all tall or athletic or burly (or all three). However, a few of the women couldn’t cut their way out of a thin paper bag with a sharp sword. Instead of trying to find athletic women such as WNBA, beach volleyball, olympic stars, or just unknown superior female athletes to compete… Read more »
