Jason and the Argonauts (Season 1)

Jason and the Argonauts (2000) is an adventure fantasy miniseries you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Nick Willing. Jason London plays the title hero, joined by Ciarán Hinds, Derek Jacobi, Dennis Hopper, Natasha Henstridge, Olivia Williams, and Jolene Blalock in a cast far stronger than the format usually attracts.

Jason watched his father's throne get taken by his uncle Pelias when he was still a child. He returns as a young man to reclaim it — and instead finds himself sentenced to death. His only path to survival: cross the known world to retrieve the Golden Fleece from the savage king of Colchis. He builds the Argo, the fastest ship anyone has ever seen, and crews it with men who have little to lose.

The two-part Hallmark Channel production packs in Amazons, sea creatures, and gods squabbling over mortal fates. It plays the myth as straight adventure rather than ironic spectacle, and the ensemble gives it more weight than the runtime demands. Stream Jason and the Argonauts (2000) on iFILM.
