Ah lucky you. The series appears to have been syndicated for a while in the US then stopped according to Wikipedia but maybe the info hasn't been updated. Here in Puerto Rico it was shown once when I was little and not again. I plan on watching it again to revive some memories.

Does Katniss have smarts beyond being good at shooting a bow and arrow and her nature sense? It was mostly her innocence and naivete, manipulated behind the scenes by others, that made her into the Mockingjay. Katniss was a fairly believable character mostly because she wasn't outsmarting everyone with her cunning and astute handling of all situations. Possibly the least competent hero in YA fiction behind Harry Potter, which is what makes both characters so well liked by their target demographic. |
And who said I haven't seen Spartacus already?
Katniss and Mr. Potter are characters that grow to become key in resolving the problems in their stories. Katniss more because she became a symbol and then trains to be competent, Potter because it is in him but he needed to grow and realize his potential.
I don't see the "smarts" of Katniss, specially in comparison to the warrior Xena.
