Robin Hood (1984–1986)
9/10
Just Good TV

Truly, one of the best TV series of the past 35 years. Each episode stands alone as a story that collectively makes up the legend of Robin in the Hood. Of particular note is the extraordinary acting of Nicholas Grace as the Sheriff of Nottingham, and the exquisite writing. The dialogue is linear at times, and besmirchingly guile at others ("It's a wedding Gisbane, not a celebration.") Amazing to detail in the musical contribution/overwrite. It's one of those shows that invites the viewer to be aware of details in production/direction. The show overall is a force of craft and skill. The episodic storylines maybe could have been more inventive. And the writers seem to have run out of ideas in the final season, but this series is well-worth the watch, the immersion, and the enjoyment.
