It's.. Uninspired. There's something missing here, and it just happens to be what made the show so great. Still worth a watch, but don't expect it to be as funny as the original show was.

It felt like everyone was acting as a parody as their former characters.

It's nice to see the characters again, but the purpose of this seems to be to rehash the old. The original series would be in the 90s for me... this just isn't quite on par. I am in the camp that thinks it's better than nothing though...

It looks like Blackadder, it sounds like Blackadder, but it's not up to the standard of the old series. Unfortunately, it seems that in their rush to make it accessible, Atkinson and Curtis watered it down substantially, and turned what could have been a good idea into a limp dishcloth of a short. There are a few laughs here, certainly, but I wouldn't expect to be rolling in the aisles.

Cute but not up to the quality level of the original Blackadder series. Certainly a must-see for any fans of that series or Rowan Atkinson though. As you watch, appreciate that this was shown for the first time to attendees of the Millennium Dome millennium party, and all the stars of this emerged in person at the end.

Tired and uninspired. I'm looking forward to the day where good writers will just leave it be when the ending is perfect.

As much as I like seeing the characters again, this is only a sad parody of the series. It's easy to see that the cast were forced to relearn their roles by watching the show over again, and as a result they feel like imitations of the characters they are trying to play. Maybe this is sad, but my favorite part was the end theme, which felt genuinely authentic, and is as clever as any of the original themes from the second series.

Worth a watch if like me your a fan of Blackadder. But this is not good at all. It really never needed to be made, and it is a long way behind the quality of Blackadder's second, third and forth series.

Definitely worth seeing if you're a fan of the show and it does have some great jokes. However it just doesn't pack the humourous punch that the original television show did. It's nice to revisit BlackAdder, Baldrick and all the rest (including some funny cameos) but I wouldn't consider it a high point of the character or series.
