Eva Green and Joseph Fiennes took it all for me. This was brilliant in its execution and yeah, I didn't particularly like the guy cast as Arthur. Other than that one gripe, superb!

Not bad but not great. Stack at home, nothing to watch? Good for time pass. The casting of Arthur was horrible, completely wrong person. Don’t expect to be blown away.

Eva Green and Joseph Fiennes do carry this show a lot especially during the early episodes. Eva has amazing eyes but I also really liked Claire Forlani. Jamie Campbell Bower is an unconvincing Arthur, and this isn´t because of his performance, he just doesn´t sell the role. You have kind of a different picture of King Arthur in mind than this boyish blonde character. So, yeah, he´s a miscast. But production of the show is good, sets and costumes, no complaints there. Took me a while to really get into it but I´d say with the final two episodes the show was good enough to get at least get another 10 Episode second season. Since costs were to high and ratings were declining plus they had to compete against GoT it ultimately let to the cancellation. I would have liked to see more.

Definitely grittier than the BBC's Merlin, but not as fantastic in writing department (strangely suffered from the same problems as Chris' Doctor Who episodes). Would have been interested to see it develop though, but scheduling problems will arise with big name cast members.

I love Eva Green & would have been happy to see more of her. The actor chosen for Arthur seemed miscast though.

Michael Hirst of Vikings and The Tudors fame brought me to the series. This is definitely not that. lol. But it is also not a bad bit of storytelling really -- more campy though than anything. There are many instances where cheap effects, low budget, or just stretching the heck out of the source material pulled me out of the story, but you can't knock 'em for trying. It was also pretty funny watching their version of Galahad sporting two swords on his back (and the swish, swish, swish sound effect every time he drew them... lol).

Everyone seems to dislike Arthur, but I don't think it was because of miscasting. He is thoroughly unlikeable it's true, but I think this is because this is how he is written. He really does make a lot of bad decisions and has to work hard at being king -- and he does have a good redemption arc. In fact all of the characters' backstories and motivation were very fleshed out. All in all, a pretty good romp an an interesting reimagining of the Arthur tale if you don't take it too seriously.
