Info

The New Adventures of Robin Hood is a 1997-1998 live action TV series on Turner Network Television. It was filmed in Vilnius, Lithuania and produced and distributed by Dune Productions, M6, and Warner Bros. International. The tone of the series resembled its contemporaries Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess. The premiere episode aired immediately after an episode of WCW Monday Nitro. A unique promotional effort took place between the two, with the Nitro main event -- Hulk Hogan vs The Giant—not beginning until two minutes before the show ended and then continuing and being broadcast in lieu of standard commercial breaks.

The New Adventures of Robin Hood Audience Reviews

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
orderyourfuneral This series is one of the worst shows I have ever seen. Terrible acting, terrible effects, terrible writing, you get my drift. The stories are so far from the legend of Robin Hood it's amazing. Looks like they just wanted to use the name Robin Hood to attract an audience. It might as well have been called New Adventures of Mr. Bland Acting.Someone commented before me that if you had imagination, you'd love this show. That is a horrible approach to a TV-series. A visual media like this should spark your imagination, you shouldn't have to force your imagination into something to make it good. That would be like the Simpsons episode where they try to brainwash Homer with a religious propaganda movie, and he starts talking about who killed who or whatever. "If a movie is boring, I just make up my own story."In conclusion: Absolute human waste.
milame30 It is a pity to me of all of you! You look this wild delirium and name the legend of Robin Hood, and, maybe, for you it is Robin, but you have severely and ridiculously deceived! Unique Robin Hood is a British serial of the eightieth years, in a leading role Michael Praed. That we see in new adventures - very very bad. I do not speak about historical reliability, it simply is not present, I speak about soul, how it looks, about suits, about the script. What relation Mongols to England have 12 centuries? Besides the majority of subject courses are simply stolen at the British serial which I have mentioned earlier. I looked New adventures. The only thing, that was pleasant to me - music! Porretta is good in role Scarlet in the comedy of Bruks , but he cannot be Robin in any way!I understand, that there are fans which simply love the actor, and everything, that he makes. But this love too should be adequate! New adventures is very bad film!
Donttrustines I really liked that show( and I think it just ended too early). Well, I've only seen seasons three and four, but I became pretty mad about the whole series and especially about Barbara Griffin.I think she acted Marion exactly the way lots of people wanted to see her : Strong and funny but also with dreams of a normal life with family. She acted just great in every episode I saw. Admittedly the storys were a little too fantastic sometimes, but it was great fun to imagine what could come next. The only thing I sometimes hated was the relationship between Robin and Marion, because it was different every episode. One episode they kiss and in the next one , they're just good friends - I was pretty confused about that...But all in all there's nothing else to say (at least for me) than: I just love it!
thornedbud The New Adventures of Robin Hood, known to the fans simply as NAoRH, is lack of publicity. To enjoy this show you need to at least like the legend of Robin Hood. After that you need to have an imagination, this is a fantasy show with a almost none existent budget. The special affects were literally cardboard cut-outs and tricks such as putting a sword to your side to make it look as if it went through you. If you have an imagination you can see past that and enjoy. One particular aspect of the show that made it so short lived was replacing Robin Hood. The original and by many considered the best Robin Hood after Errol Flynn was Matthew Porretta. He looked the part, and pulled off the terrible one liners in the scripts so that you HAD to like them. It also didn't hurt that he is gorgeous, has one hell of a voice and the most adorable smile in history. When he said he was Robin Hood you didn't feel the need to question it, you just believed. He was one of the few involved in the show that had talent, then they replace him with John Bradley, whose claim to fame is a bit part in Independence Day. He actually did that part well, but he made Robin Hood looked like a continually drunk, out of place and generally ignorant oaf. That change was very bad, where as the change in Marions was not quite so crushing. Their acting abilities were similar and they both portrayed the lady warrior as well as could be expected. Though it may be difficult to except a female fighter in the twelfth century, as woman I have to admit I enjoyed seeing a Marion that wasn't screaming and wringing her hands. The stories were interesting, but could have been done considerably better with a larger budget. They were good in the first two seasons then got so bad and half were stolen in the third season I got headaches. The first and second seasons are worth your time, but don't bother with the third unless your a John Bradley fan. As a huge fan of the Robin Hood legend, with a wild imagination and a woman with eyes I fell in love with the first two seasons of NAoRH.
