BLACK ADDER Series, a long almost forgotten British comedy! Although several decades old, the clever writing and slapstick endures. Strange how one can be entertained using the good ol' English language, without explosions or special effects. Looking forward to viewing during the holidays or gloomy winter nights.

For historical buffs, this is a great review of critical times in English history; for costume buffs, it's perfect, as only the British can do it; and for those who need comedy in bushels, Rowan Atkinson is at his razor-sharp best.

Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson and Hugh Laurie are hilarious in this classic British comedy series. This show has a lot of very bawdy humor and is for people with a very broad sense of humor. I loved this show back in the day and it still is as great as I remember.

With Rowan Atkinson, Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie, Tony Robinson and Tim McInnerny you can't go wrong. I have seen this show half a dozen times and it's still one of my favorites.

It's funny, it's silly. Put Atkinson in a room with Fry and Laurie AND draw that out through 5 centuries and it's so addictive. Great writing, great performances.

Admitting that this show is absolutely British and will not appeal to everyone, I still insist that it's the funniest humor for educated people I've ever come across. There are historic references and twenty-five cent words every other line as well as humor of the lower orders that should appeal to anybody else. A college experience helps, or an appreciation for the English way of humor but even without either of those, very very funny. Way way funnier than Mr. Bean. On the other hand, if you love Mr. Bean, chances are you will not like Black Adder, so Bean fans be warned. Not all Rowan Atkinson is equal.
This was a good video great value.
