    I love it!
    However, many of those shows seem to be set in SE Asia, which is generally not the specific theatre we envision when we think of The Dark Ages, right?

    If you haven't seen The Last Kingdom I heavily recommend it.

    I think I enjoyed Cadfael but it's been a long time since I watched it and that might just be because it was occasionally one of those things a substitute teacher would put on for a class or two in high school.

    Movie classes were the best. People act like its the worst sin cuz its lazy but its like, not everyone can teach you the most all the time. Its nice to be able to kick back as an educational cheat day once now and again

  • I never complained. Teacher would tie it in with something that we were supposed to know so we had to pay attention and write about it later on. It's one of the examples of productive laziness (which some call efficiency) I've thought about many times since.

    For relatively recent US comedies, Season 2 of Miracle Workers, Galavant, and My Lady Jane were all pretty good. Also, Disenchanted was a pretty good animated series.

    To be fair, I only saw a few episodes of the first season and had no expectations or notions when I stumbled on it; it seemed fine for what it was.

    The other shows I mentioned, though, are actually favorites in our house.

    disenchanted has a fictional setting, but i guess you can consider medieval since the protagonists home kingdom is definately rooted in fantasy; which mostly has a medieval feel to it.
