    Default The best Blackadder

    I was just watching the first Blackadder series, which I found a bit stupid. I find the later series better: I prefer Blackadder being clever, sarcastic and not just a Mr. Bean in tights. I was wondering what the people here thought about.

    I've only seen what I believe to be the first, and not in its entirety. It wasn't bad, though. I was quite surprised that they could get away with such blatantly racist humour.

    The fourth is quite good. I voted for that. I nearly voted for the third, as i watched it yesterday, and was highly amused.

    Thats a very hard question

    Its easier for me to say that I dislike the third series most so that will have to be classed as number 4.

    Blackadder 2 would then come next

    And I like equally 1 and 4.

    Have you seen the Christmas Carol one off episode, well worth a laugh.

    Racist humour? Where was that?

    The only sort of abuse i saw in Blackadder was animal abuse. After all, i'm sure Baldrick counts as an animal, right?

    "Edmund, do you have a woman in there?"
    "No, mother"
    "A man then?"
    "No, no"
    "It isn't a sheep is it?"
    Maa-maa.

    Series 4 was very good, although the ending was a bit sad
