The satirical pen of Curtis and Elton was at its sharpest when it came to tackling the topic of the Great War in 1989's Blackadder Goes Forth.
November 07, 2018
For all its formulaic nature, the show was consistently sharp and funny, and even, with its fourth series, Blackadder Goes Forth showed off a beating heart of compassion.
November 08, 2018
The writers and cast are able to be incredibly respectful, not to mention emotionally affecting, as they continually lampoon the most tragic of all comedies, modern warfare.
November 07, 2018
Despite the show's comedic overpinnings, there are emotional underpinnings that were missing from the previous series, where moments of danger felt camp...It's poetic. Four star series.
November 08, 2018
In tribute to the real horrors of World War 1 and the final series for these beloved characters, 'Goodbyeee' stands as one of the most powerful, emotional finales of all time.
November 07, 2018
The show elicits a few helpless belly laughs, but it takes an initial period of adjustment to get to them.
November 05, 2018
Completely switching the show around, Messrs Curtis, Elton and Lloyd showed their skill and delivered a perfectly pitched, poignant ending. It still gets you every time.
November 07, 2018
Leave it to the Brits to find humor in World War I.
November 07, 2018
The last episode, however, although completely over the top...has to be one of the greatest interpretations of the madness of war that has ever been put on film.
November 05, 2018
Despite the harsh setting of the WWI trenches, Blackadder Goes Forth is damn funny stuff, yet, in my opinion, extremely respectful to those that fought and gave their lives in those hellish Flanders trenches.
November 05, 2018
"Goodbyeee" is a masterpiece, a hilarious and painful crystallization of everything Blackadder does well. It is without a doubt the best episode of the series and more than that, it's one of the best series finales in television history.
