Going back through this seminal 80's series. Considered quite expensive at the time and much more than yet another retelling of a familiar legend.

This series married legend with mysticism and fantasy along with a superb soundtrack from Gaelic band Clannad yet it kept its roots in realistic historical drama and used the landscape of the U.K to fantastic effect. There is also subtext regarding Norman invasion and the class system too.

Every Robin Hood film/ series after this incorporated ideas from this series so it was quietly influential too.

i've watched the entirety of that and thought it was pretty good myself

Is anyone a Tudors fan? I'm chowing through the 3rd season on DVD at the moment. It's pretty cool!

^ Totally fucking stupid but, as with just about everything else I've seen Bruce Campbell in, that's just one more reason to find it brilliant.

For example;

I'm just saying - I love this show.

Misfits! I bought it after hearing it was really good and had never watched it. Now I love it.

Dude, I remember that show from the nineties or the early 2000s. Back when Bruce Campbell was having a sorta kinda resurgence from being on Xena. Napolean was a horny midget. Brilliant.

By some error in judgment, we've recently received the comedy network, and I've begun watching Kids in the Hall.

I haven't decided if I think it's funny or not. I do love Dave Foley though.

Did anyone watch the first episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia last week? It was like watching a different show. I was always impressed by the fact that from season to season it really hasn't gotten much worse, if at all, so I was very disappointed by this episode. Hopefully the rest of the season is up to the show's old standards.

I thought it was pretty good actually. The last few seasons it's been a bit inconsistent, but it's still very good.

I'm catchin' up with Mad Men from the very beginning.

Lots of episodes to get through, but having just finished the second season, I can say that it's up there with the best shows I've watched. Although the show makes me wanna smoke so much, not an easy watch for an ex-smoker!
