The sequels have a reputation of being bad, especially Highlander 2. In addition, they are mostly inconsistent with each other. I'll give you a quick rundown:
Highlander: The original movie, featuring Connor MacLeod.
Highlander 2: The Quickening, a reportedly (I haven't seen it myself) horrible sequel featuring Connor MacLeod in the near future.
Highlander 3: The Sorcerer, a movie featuring Connor MacLeod that ignores the second film. It never happened! Apparently this movie is bad too.
Highlander: The Series, featuring Connor's kinsman Duncan MacLeod and running for five seasons. It's not very spectacular, but I liked it well enough. It ignores both the second and third film.
Highlander: The Raven, a series featuring Duncan's on-and-off girlfriend Amanda that ran for ony one season. I haven't seen it, but I think that speaks volumes.
Highlander Endgame: Sequel film to the series in which Connor and Duncan team up. I haven't seen it yet, but supposedly it's bad.
Highlander: The Source. Sequel to Endgame, with an even worse reputation.
Highlander: The Animated Series, featuring Quentyn MacLeod and set in the future. Connor cameos. Ignores everything but the first film. Very obscure, I believe it can be found on Youtube.
Highlander: The Search for Vengeance: an anime starring Colin MacLeod in the future, which was received well for a change. I'll let you know what I think of it when I've seen it. I have just watched the first few minutes and it seemed alright. My dad is a Highlander fan too, so I'm waiting for him to watch it together.
