About RELIC HUNTER & Episode Guides


Relic Hunter Aired From September 20, 1999 - May 20, 2002



About the Show:
THE HUNT IS ON! Join unorthodox History Professor Sydney Fox (Tia Carerre) and her eager but hapless teaching assistant Nigel Bailey (Christien Anholt) on the adventure of a lifetime. Aided by an unparalleled knowledge of ancient civilizations, Sydney and Nigel outwit the competition at every turn as they look for ancient artifacts to return to museums and/or the ancestors of the original owner while often battling rival hunters seeking out artifacts for the money.

Highly sought after for both her beauty and her skills as a Relic Hunter, Sydney has tracked down the crown of a Gypsy King, a Baseball glove of mythic power and an entire lost civilization. Racing against fortune hunters and even the odd Vampire, there's never a doubt about who's going to come out on top.

Relive the fun and excitement of Sydney and Nigel's journey through the ages, along with the humor and reluctant heroics of the ever-saucy, and somewhat air-headed secretary, Claudia (Lindy Booth).
