"The Crow:Stairway to Heaven" was a 1998 tv series based off of the 1994 film "The Crow"

Before its release people were mad and upset about this idea and they did not want to see this series happen. Brandon Lee had died 4 years prior to this series. However once the series started people began to warm up to it and the show had very positive ratings.

Unfortunately the series only lasted one season (22 episodes). When Polygram was sold to Universal they decided not to continue the series despite its positive reaction.

Did you ever watch the show?

I watched several episodes. It wasn't a bad show, i enjoyed it, but i think they took a great deal of creative licensing with the TV series. For example, Brandom seemed to be human at some points, and then turn into the "Crow". Now, that was kind'a cool. but their were other things as well, Like the non-killing aspect. Don't get me wrong, i'm against the death penalty, but taking a fictional charactor like "The Crow" and then saying "You shall not kill" seems to be somewhat fucked up. It just doesn't mesh.

I remember liking this show to a degree. The only thing I truly hated was how wimpy they made Top Dollar. He was nowhere near the badass that Michael Wincott portrayed in the movie.

I have the series on DVD. I am a huge fan of the movie, and I enjoyed the show as well. I can see why they did the "no killing" thing. Eric was sent back to make right what happened to he and Shelly, so killing others can be seen as taking him farther away from that.
