"Robin Hood (BBC)"

So who watched it?

I did, and I enjoyed it very much. Something else I'll be tuning into every week now then :)

Don't really know what else to say....what did you think?

Thought it was ok and will be watching it. Only some of the action was way too farfetched (i.e. marian throwing a hair pin into an arm of a guard from a distance, shooting two arrows at once with pin point accuracy and throwing a sword up a wall and knowcking out two guards. I know it's based on legend and whatever, but it didn't seem to be that believeable.

Pretty cool to watch though, don't get me wrong...

It was good. The sets and costumes were very believable (something I was worried about with all the talk of hoodies and such). The acting was pretty good too, especially from Keith Allen, who was well cast as the sheriff.

The only thing I'd say against it is that it doesn't seem to have as much soul as Robin of Sherwood had. You could believe more in the gritty feel and even with the mystical element of the Robin Hood in that, this one is perhaps just a touch too 'lavish'. Not enough mud, perhaps?
