luckyluke 1 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Glam Rock Metal Detectives. Only ran one series, and only me and this weird kid at school watched it. 13627[/snapback] Should that not be "only me, the weird kid at school, watched it"?

Renton 17759 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 The jury's still out maybe, but I thought the last episode of Extras was brilliant. Well done to Les Dennis for letting himself appear as such a sad case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Blackadder i a strange programme in that it arguably got better with every series, though some would debate if 3 is better than 2, but 4 has to be the best. However whilst the later 3 are clearly the best i'm a fan of series 1 as well, it was just toally different to to the others, but still well worth watching.

Then 2. All copies of the first series should be detroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking back on it I still get a smile thinking of 1, where Blackadder was a complete hopeless case, decapitating the king, that cod piece, etc. Also I reckon it had a more lavish production cost, with outdoor sets etc. Anyway, if it truly was horse shit, it would have never made a second series, would it?

This lead to them being told to seriously trim down the costs and change the style if they were to get another series and of course they brought in Ben Elton as co-writer. As a massive Blackadder fan i don;t think series 1 matches the others but it is and alwasy will be underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is better is then just a matter of opinion, I obviously prefer hopeless cases like the original Black Adder compared to his suave and witty contempories! Would explain why I love the character of David Brent so much too, and his side kick Gareth. Not to mention Frank Spencer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
