Cast includes: Colin Morgan — Merlin Bradley James — Arthur Anthony Head — Uther Pendragon John Hurt — The Dragon

BBC Television series for young adults about the adventures of young Merlin. Entirely retold, with almost of the traditional details intact, traditionalists would do best to stay far away from it. The storylines are sweetly silly, but the costuming and art direction are well executed.

Director: Mark Atkins Cast includes: Simon Lloyd Roberts — Merlin Jürgen Prochnow — The Mage

"'Wizard in training' Merlin takes on the might of the ferocious dragon empire." —

Starring: Leonard Nimoy — Narrator

"Venture with prominent archaeologists and historians all over England and Wales as they search for the legendary site of the Round Table. From Arthur's supposed burial ground in Glastonbury to historic Tintagel Castle, A&E sheds new light on a timeless place that has been enchanting us for centuries."

Director: Steve Barron Cast includes: Sam Neill — Merlin Helena Bonham Carter — Morgan Le Fey John Gielgud — King Constant Rutger Hauer — King Vortigern Miranda Richardson — Queen Mab Isabella Rosselini — Nimue

"Sam Neill plays Merlin as an accessible, flesh-and-blood fellow of real passion, powerless to undo the spell of a rival (Rutger Hauer) who has virtually imprisoned Merlin's great love, Nimue (Isabella Rossellini), but gifted enough to counter the treachery of Morgan Le Fey (Helena Bonham Carter) and the wicked Queen Mab (Miranda Richardson). The battle sequences and special effects are striking and original, and it is great fun to see such art-house movie actors as Richardson, Carter, Neill, etc., in fantasy entertainment the whole family can enjoy."

"The tale of a girl named Kayley whose father, a Knight of the Round Table, is killed by Sir Ruber, a maniacal brute who steals Excalibur and threatens to seize King Arthur's Camelot. Kayley enlists the blind, reclusive knight- aspirant Garrett to brave the Enchanted Forest and retrieve the magic sword, and their adventure is (of course) fraught
with danger." —Jeff Shannon

Director: Jerry Zucker Cast includes: Sean Connery — King Arthur Richard Gere — Lancelot Julia Ormond — Guinevere John Gielgud — Oswald

"As the story opens, Guinevere's lands are under attack by the evil knight Malagant, and she must choose between marriage to Arthur and the security of Camelot, or encouraging the affections of Lancelot, who has heroically rescued her from a potentially lethal attack.  Anyone looking for meticulous medieval authenticity won't find it here, but director Jerry Zucker keeps the action moving with exuberant spirit and glorious production values."
—Jeff Shannon

"When the mythical King of the Britons leads his knights on a quest for the Holy Grail, they face a wide array of horrors, including a persistent Black Knight, a three-headed giant, a cadre of shrubbery-challenged knights, the perilous Castle Anthrax, a killer rabbit, and a handful of rude Frenchmen. Throughout their adventures, the Python crew eschews realism in favor of anachronistic social satire."
