5.0 out of 5 stars Rowan is too funny

Nothing is better than British comedy, and nobody is better suited for such, than the rubber faced comedic artist, Rowan Atkinson. His faces are classic and the lines he spews are genius!!! I LOVE this show, and Mr.Atkinson himself. I can't wait to have the entire series to watch again and again.

I watched about fifteen minutes of this slapstick travesty and threw it in the trash. Really enjoyed Black Adder II. Having seen other episodes from other seasons that I liked, this was a surprise. Viewer, pay attention to other reviews. I didn't. I was warned. Do not rent or buy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Horrible Video Quality, No Subtitles
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2008
We all know how funny Black Adder is; we've usually seen them countless times before deciding to own the set, but I was stunned by the shoddy video quality BBC Video came out with, and only the cheapest of DVDs these days are produced with no subtitle function at all. Very disappointing; I will probably return II and III, which haven't been opened. I regretted that their enclosed feedback card was only a viewing survey and had no entry for feedback.

3.0 out of 5 stars The wittiest comedy ever had to start somewhere.
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2015
Let me explain the reason for three stars: Blackadder is one of the finest English comedies you will ever see... except for the first series. Blackadder is one of those shows that started weak and grew stronger and stronger with each series that followed, until it achieved it's deserved legendary status as the greatest ensemble historical comedy ever made (and maybe the only historical comedy ever made).
However, before the glory of its later years came this first series "The Black Adder", set in medieval England telling an alternate history after the events of the Battle of Bosworth Field. According to the series, Richard III did not murder his two nephews in the tower, but rather one of them lived to adulthood and fought with him in the aforementioned Battle of Bosworth Field. Richard is accidentally killed by that nephew's son, a spineless, sniveling Edmund (Rowan Atkinson) and Edmund's father becomes King Richard IV. The series chronicles this short (and fictitious) reign of Richard IV (played by perfect ham Brian Blessed) and the misadventures of his neglected second son Edmund.
If I had to describe this series in a few words they would be: incomprehensible, over-the-top, and distinctly unfunny. It's a little hard to believe that out of the medieval dung heap bloomed the wittiest comedy ever. While some of the situations in this series raise a few laughs (covering all manner of medieval times including church politics, witchcraft, crusades, etc.) the writing by Richard Curtis and Rowan Atkinson hasn't yet mined the comedy gold that would come later on. Edmund is far from the cunning curmudgeon we know and love to hate; here he's stupid, weak, weird (in a pasty creepy way). The cast is insanely large and the set pieces (a medieval court in all it's opulence, exterior shots of Alnwick Castle) are amazing, a reflection of the lavish budget the cast were given by the BBC. The three core cast members of Atkinson, Tony Robinson's Baldrick (who is the clever one in this series... the world is LITERALLY upside down here!), and Tim McInnerny's Lord Percy Percy get through the series admirably but their characters are still being formed, and not quite as solid as they would be in the years to come. The thrust of this series (from Edmund's perspective) is to show his family he's not as sniveling and useless as he really is, only to be defeated time and again by extraneous circumstances, his own friends/family, and his own stupidity.
And yet, let us not despair, for out of the primordial ooze of these half-formed characters and half-baked attempts at laughter would walk the gloriously wicked Edmund Blackadder of lore and his marvelously witty comedy! Take hart that we are no longer in the Middle Ages, as history will show, the Elizabethan time was a time of greatness (for Britain and the Blackadder saga).

I understand a lot of people love this series, and that's nice. Really, it is. However, I don't know if it's the homely characters, the musty-looking dark sets, or the dizzying pace... but I just don't like this series.

Rowan Atkinson (Johnny English, Mr Bean) never looked better, the story lines seem interesting, but when I get a few minutes into each episode, my skin starts to crawl and I try to stick it out, hoping the show will get better and hoping I might start to laugh, but I don't.

I can't help it. I just don't find this series funny, and I just don't like it.
