Earlier this year, there was talk of Showtime producing a show called
Camelot, to fill the soapy anachronistic void in its programming left by
The Tudors. So last night I decided to find out if anything was in development. Who knew it would be such an emotional roller coaster (emocoaster?) of a journey?
1. "Oh, Starz is producing? Between that and
Torchwood, it'll be like one-stop-shopping for lolarity."
2. "Wow,
Joseph Fiennes? How'd they get him to sign without promising puffy shorts?"
3. "
Claire Forlani and
Eva Green? Don't these people have movies to be in?"
4. "HAHAHA
KING ARTHUR WAS IN
TWILIGHT."
5. "...Dude,
Kay is kind of hot o.O"
6. "Who knows, this could actually be kind of decent--"
7. "
CHRIS CHIBNALL?!"
8. "
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK."
9. "Right, well, now there's no way it'll be good. Will it even be worth the aggravation to watch? I'd just get--"
10. "
PHILLIP WINCHESTER!!!!!"
...So yeah, I'll probably be watching it anyway. I mean, if I only wanted to watch GOOD adaptations of Arthuriana, I'd basically have to play
Monty Python and the Holy Grail on repeat*. WHY START HAVING STANDARDS NOW.
* ...More so than I already do.
