So... 8 episodes long, 21 minutes each, divided in four parts, aired in between 11th and 12th episodes of Once upon a Times' fourth season.

What do you think about it? Do we have any numbers about how many people watch it?


In my personal opinion...is the best thing in TV since True Detective. Really, it's that good. 
Just watch the opening song. And by opening I mean not just some intro, but this is first sequence of whole series.



Or just a trailer:

Music is superb, songs are awesome (Alan Menken!), acting, done by mostly not well know names (just for not saying: 'no-names') is really good, technically it's looking very nice, and I don't see any flaws really. Huh. I want more!

So apparently this is pretty good.  Has anyone kept up with the whole season so far?  I am curious if it is worth catching up or not?

 

Yes. Even if it gets canceled, all the episodes are pretty good.

GALAVANT
Sunday, Jan. 3/Season Premiere, 8pm ET/7pm CT, ABC

 

For ABC's lavish musical comedy Galavant, getting a second season is truly something to sing about.  "We joked that we didn't have a chance," says executive producer Kat Likkel of the ratings-challenged fairy tale, which features original tunes from lyricist Glenn Slater and Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken.  "But we knew in our hearts that it's a fantastic show."

 

Fittingly, the premiere is titled "A New Season, aka Suck It, Cancellation Bear"--and there's plenty of ground to cover.  To refresh: Noble-ish knight Galavant (Joshua Sasse) had been tasked with returning King Richard (Timothy Omundson) to the safety of his original kingdom.  Meanwhile, in Valencia, Madalena (Mallory Jansen) had seized the throne and was ruling alongside ex-henchman Gareth (Vinnie Jones).  And Gal's unlucky soulmate, Princess Isabella (Karen David), was being held captive in yet another kingdom by her 11-year-old cousin-slash-fiancé.  The action resumes with a giant production number.  "It sets up the whole season," Likkel says, "which includes the possibility of an eventual battle between three huge armies."

 

But first, everyone must contend with some new realities--like the re-booted dynamic between former archrivals Richard and Galavant.  "Galavant's goal is to drop Richard off and then rescue Isabella, but there are obstacles," Likkel syas.  "It becomes a buddy comedy.  We're taking all of our characters and shaking them up."

 

Clearly, this opportunity to keep the party going won't be squandered.  "We've been inspired to go much bigger," Likkel says.  "We shot the final episodes in Morocco!  It's like a comedy Lawrence of Arabia.

The season started out pretty strong! I love how catchy the songs are. Makes me wish Menken would get back to Disney again at some point soon. I do enjoy the more mature style of writing in the show though. The songs arent afraid to get dirty!
