Default Camelot




Camelot is a historical-fantasy-drama television series. It is co-produced by the Starz cable network and GK-TV and produced by Graham King, Morgan O'Sullivan and Michael Hirst.
The series pilot premiered on Starz on February 25, 2011 as a sneak preview after the season finale of Spartacus: Gods of the Arena. The series is scheduled to start its regular weekly airings on Friday, April 1, 2011

Reception

While most critical response will come after the official April 1, 2011, two-hour premiere, advance "buzz" has been positive, as evidenced by the comments of Maureen Ryan, who writes the "Stay Tuned" column for TVSquad.com. Writing on February 25, 2011, she lists "five good reasons" to be intrigued by this "new version of the saga of Merlin, Morgan, and Arthur," including:
The head writer, Chris Chibnall.

-The excellent cast.

- "It's Camelot for grownups."

-Its approach to magic. Ryan quotes Fiennes, who notes that "magic actually presents a danger to those who use it.... We're ...slightly introducing this idea that there is an immense cost; that if you dabble in this, that you will be physically, mentally, and spiritually drained, and it's really not for the faint-hearted."

-The show will give us "something to watch until the fantasy epic Game of Thrones premieres on HBO on April 17.... we've got Merlin and Arthur to keep us company until then, and possibly beyond.

Right, time for me to watch the first episode and see if it's any good as Merlin.
