This review is from: Adventures of Robin Hood: The Complete Second Season (DVD)

I've always loved The Adventures of Robin Hood since I was a kid. It was just a good, clean, entertaining TV program for us youngsters. I've watched all the episodes of season one and season two and have been very entertained by them...great memories. Richard Greene is great as Robin Hood. Great supporting cast. Timeless series!

5.0 out of 5 stars Still the Best Robin Hood, November 14, 2008

By 

Steve (Racine, Wisconsin) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Adventures of Robin Hood: The Complete Second Season (DVD)

To my mind these are the best of the Robin Hoods on film, and I think I have seen nearly all of them. The actors are first-rate, and the stories remarkably varied and inventive for half-hour episodes. Perhaps those who are so so delicate as to grade them down because of only middling picture and sound quality (these are, after all, black and white TV shows from the '50s) can't get caught up in them to the point where this doesn't matter. I can. Although I'm approaching sixty, watching these I'm once again a little boy in love with swashbuckling heroism--and Bernadette O'Farrell's incomparable Maid Marian.
