    Blackadder is one of the most hilarious set of series I've ever watched. I have to say though, one of my friends is exactly like Edmund in the first series (In other words, he's a dork)

    My personal favorite was the second series with Mad Queen Bess. The episode where he fell in love with his new manservant (who was a woman in disguise) was the best comedy I've ever seen.

    Morningstar, if you are interested to know, in the third Blackadder show, Edmund Blackadder was a frustrated butler who worked for the incredibly stupid Crown Prince of England. It wasn't the best serie IMHO, but it had some good episodes.

    I love Blackadder! It is magnificient! I cant understand that the same person that created Blackadder also created the horror that is Mr Bean. I like the Tudor series but the WW*1* is close at its heels!

    I second Joacqin's thoughts. What makes me crazy is when people refer to Mr. Atkinson as "Mr. Bean". He did such brilliant stuff, like Blackadder, before producing that revolting lowest-common-denominator persona, but what made him really famous was Mr. Bean. I can hardly bear to think about what that says about viewing audiences. Blackadder was wonderful. I have the WWI season on video, but the Tudor era one was my favorite.

    Nah, don't get too elitist :eek: here.

    Mr. Bean brought a lot of people joy. It was "speecheless" comedy, therefore reached a giantic international audience. Sure, I personally prefer Black Adder, but that does not mean, that I stare down on my 8-year-old brother who loves Mr. Bean.

    I LOVE Blackadder! I have seen most of the second series, and most of the first. But I have not seen much of the third and fourth series :( I love all those I have seen though! I second, or is third, people's comments on Mr.Bean. I really don't now, nor ever did, find Bean funny, but blackadder :lol: !
