Thanks for all the King Arthur show suggestions.

I liked the film that places Arthur as a Roman soldier at the end of the time when Rome was leaving Britain ( 5th Century AD) with Clive Owen as the title & Keira Knightley who looks pretty good all in blue wode. Some good action sequences

King Arthur (2004)

The only one I've watched is https://next-episode.net/merlin which is a bit of a Smallville take on the character. It was ok but feels very dated now (think I watched a couple years ago). I have https://next-episode.net/camelot in the queue but haven't watched. Haven't watched https://next-episode.net/the-mists-of-avalon but I don't think it was as well received as the book, despite the cast.

His sisterwives would definitely be the tops in that relationship!
Show ended in a thud - will it be renewed?
The series finale should have at least given us some sort of interesting storyline.

Anybody know if other King Arthur shows or movies that are any good? Is he mostly lore, or are there actual historical accounts of King Arthur and the Excalibur?

yeah i started souring a bit once it became clear they were stretching for s2. i may not weekly watch it again next season as that one week where there wasn't an episode it was like i'd never seen it before when it came back.

well I finaly had another look at the show. Iain De Caesteckers Arthur is to some
extent a reprise of his evil doctor in the virtual world season of Agents of Shield - cold calculatiing and deliberate so nothing new there

This show is a sacrilege to English heritage, it felt like someone had just raped the Arthurian legends and I honestly had to take a bath after watching episode one.


Agreed. Nothing can hide from the corporate ideologues and their quest to make everything fake and ghey.
