Forever Knight: The story of how Nick became a vampire

[@knightvision1228]

If you have never seen Forever Knight (1992-1996) check it out on amazon prime. FK was my first fandom and the reason I started editing back in 2001. It will always hold a special place in my heart. Lucifer is the only series that ever came close to my love for Forever Knight.

[@kevindobson3701]

I would love to talk to you about Forever knight I'm obessed with it for decades and have so many stories to tell about my history with it

[@kyleday5026]

Hi just recently got into the series never seen it before really good and before buffy and angel and similarities and do think it is more darker and serious than them

[@tarynelliott9046]

What an awesome revisit. I loved this show and all his angst.

[@knightvision1228]

Thank you! FK was my first fandom many years ago and inspired me to start editing. I have a lot of old videos on my channel, but plan to make new ones really soon. Working on remastering the footage to HD.

[@darlene5216]

I love this show. I loved it then, I love it now. I have all 3 seasons on DVD. This edit is wonderful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️

Thank you so much!! FK was my first fandom and I've fallen in love all over again. I've missed it so much!

[@darlene5216]

@@knightvision1228 I'm so glad. I was in the FK official fan club back when the show was on and I sent Ger a vest which I have a photo of him wearing. I still have my fan club stuff. I was also in Ger's and Nigel's fan clubs too. Great times back then. I was in my early 20s. Now in my early 50s.

[@knightvision1228]

@@darlene5216 Wow! That is so cool. I joined the fandom in the late 90s when I was a teenager and ran a big website called Knight Vision. I discovered FK during season 3 and got to finally see them all on scifi channel a few years later. My facebook is knightvision1228 if you'd like to add me. I'd love to see your pics of Ger. :)

I remember this so well! I loved this so❤Thank you for revisiting it!😊

[@knightvision1228]

Thank you Sybil! FK was my first fandom and I used to make tons of video and art for the series. I've fallen in love all over again and can't wait to edit more. :)

[@FairyNiamh1977]

I remember watching this with my mom and dad. This is one of the few shows that we watched. Asked my husband if he remembers it... He's never heard of it. 😢

[@knightvision1228]

Yes! Same, I discovered it during season 3 when my parents had it on. I then saw them all on scifi channel and FK became my first fandom and the reason I started video editing. :) I am planning to make new music videos soon. I also have some of my old ones here on youtube.

[@IGotYumph]

Thank you for making this edit! It's awesome seeing the flashbacks all in order (and getting to see the continuity of Nick's hair lol).

[@knightvision1228]

My pleasure! So glad you enjoyed it! LOL! Yes, continuity was never FK's strong suit, but I still love it dearly. ;-)

[@IGotYumph]

@@knightvision1228 The imperfections make me love it more lol. It's been near and dear to me since it first aired and I'm going through something of a renaissance in returning to it decades later. Extremely grateful for old and new edits from you!

[@knightvision1228]

@@IGotYumph Yes! I still adore the look of FK vampires the most of all I've ever seen. The simple contacts and realistically molded fangs were far more effective than the silly monster faces so many shows do. FK will always be dear to my heart. It was my first fandom and I'm so happy my love for it has been rekindled. Thank you for all of the love on my edits! :)

[@patriciaduffy2000]

Oh Wow!! A true blast from the past!! I watched this so long ago!! ⚘😍 it's nice to see these posts again! 🖤

[@knightvision1228]

Thank you! Yes, I've fallen in love with it all over again. I was only a kid when it first aired in the 90s. I have a lot of my older FK videos on youtube, but plan to make new ones really soon.

[@gothickangelstudios]

I'm Canadian, born and raised in the Niagara region (CDN side) This came out when I was a teenager. When we did highschool trips to Toronto like the ROM and such. I used to get my friends to take pictures of me in the spots they filmed in. Nigel Bennet is one of my fav Cdn actors. But Geriant still plays at the Stratford (Stratford, ON) festival doing shakespeare and other productions. Where I live now in London, Ontario. This is one of my favourite shows. Rewatched it so many times. I'm a big vampire fan, including the black and whites and silent as well. I liked him in Dracula the Series too pre Forever Knight.

[@knightvision1228]

That is amazing! Yes, I was just a kid when season 1 first aired and became officially hooked when I caught all of the seasons on scifi channel a few years later. It's still my favorite portrayal of vampires to this day. I took a trip to Toronto in 2006 and visited all of the FK filming sites. Oh how I would have loved to go inside the Raven. I think it was a film set for season 2 and 3 though and called Liquid Lounge when the show was filming. Thanks for commenting! I have a lot of FK videos on my channel.

[@jacquelinedimattia774]

I really don't remember this show...and I watched everything vampire 🦇🖤 Must do asap 😃

[@knightvision1228]

You must! It's still my favorite portrayal of vampires to this day. Amazon has it.

@@knightvision1228 thanks for the info it's been way too long since i've seen it.

[@ablestmage]

It seems that LaCroix has no ability to actually speak with his full voice, but always in 25% voice, 75% whisper =)

[@KatieCatWalker]

And I wouldn't change that. Can you imagine if he used his full voice? He would be in a fit of rage if he did.

[@shaunabell6955]

Love this series and I didn't know that's how Nick became a vampire and how he met Lacroix

[@knightvision1228]

Yes, it's still my all time favorite series. I recommend watching from the beginning. Amazon and roku have Forever Knight available to stream. There's also a lot of episodes here on youtube.

[@shaunabell6955]

@@knightvision1228 thank you very much for the help info my favorite is Nick and I love how they explained how he became a vampire I often wonder how but thanks to you I can understand that now plus I didn't know that he was a crusader

[@KatieCatWalker]

I remember laughing so hard (and I still chuckle when I see it) as Nick is laying there in his all togethers ready for round 2 or 3 and LaCroix walks in saying "We are gonna be friends" fangs out "For a long, long time."

He was 28 when he was changed.

[@kyleday5026]

What episode is it where he turns nick into vampire

[@knightvision1228]

You see LaCroix bring Nick across in Near Death (season 2). Dark Knight the pilot episode shows his first kill. Dance by the Light of the Moon shows Janette seduce Nick and introduce him to LaCroix.

[@kyleday5026]

Would it be possible to edit all the episode to hd

[@knightvision1228]

Sadly, I do not have the capacity on my computer or space to do entire episodes. Even a short 5 minute clip takes about 45 minutes to upscale to HD. You can enjoy a lot of the best moments in my music videos here on youtube though. :-) I also post a lot of them to the Forever Knight fangroup on facebook.
