Kaamelott

I have been watching Kaamelot since it came out. It is probably the funniest TV Show ever made (even compared to the US TV Shows). It describes King Arthur's Legend with great sense of humor and a really nice way of filming it. Don't even think in terms of respecting the history here or you will be disappointed. But my point is this : as old the show gets as old it getting better in terms of content and realization. I've heard that about 15 countries have already bought the project for local diffusion and Ican't do nothing else than encourage people to turn their TVs on whenever that show airs. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

In the beginning, I thought, "Oh no, not yet another mockery of the search for the Holy Grail!" I watched, though, and by the end of the first mini-episode, I was totally taken in. The dialogs are brilliant, witty, absurd, and screamingly funny. I honestly don't find any faults with this little jewel. I didn't know we, french, could be as good and daring as Monty Python... We can. It's a relief. Thanks to Alexandre Astier, who dared come out with a preposterous idea (King Arthur is the only intelligent guy in a environment of dorks, dimwits and blockheads: namely, the knights of the Round Table), the tradition of Audiard carries on. The best french TV series I've seen in a very long time.

First, I must say that I'm far from being a fan of french humour or french comedies. But this TV-show, in spite of its shortness, is brilliant. Some of its lines have already become mythical, as the "For example, you take the present day, you wait for a week, well you'll end up with the same day as today! But be careful, you might make a mistake, it's not an accurate science..." (approximately translated). Perceval, King Arthur and Leodagan are real funny characters. I have rarely met such smartness on words, on images, I recommend this show to any amateurs of parodies and besides the costumes and sets are great and well used.

On YouTube in french. still on first season, very funny and short. at season 6 now, not as funny or shorts.different I think the fist 4 seasons short times of each episode was very well done wt a small budget set.

I will recommend to every french people I know. awesome.

This is on my opinion one of the best comedy show ever made on french TV. Each episode contains unforgettable lines that you will quote with friends for the rest of your life, told by tremendous actors that just perfectly fit to the dialogues. It's a glorious tribute to the most cherish comedy writers (Goscinny, Audiard...) with fantastic characters that quickly become your best friends, even the most unlikables. The two last seasons are very different from the.former four, becoming much darker as King Arthur is slowly drowning in nervous breakdown. I know they loosed a lot of audience expecting the same kind of slapstick comedy as before, but I love them as much as the others as it relates to the writer/director - who also plays King Arthur - burning out after 4 years of intense work. The only limit I see is that it's a very french show that maybe will not have the same appeal outside the borders, especially if you expect something serious like Game Of Thrones, Walking dead, or Last kingdom :)
