It is immature, watered down, cliched stupid, moralistic trash that turns the legends into the stuff of conservative 'family television.' It might as well be a spinoff of the old xena/hercules series; it features the same childish morality, complete with a wildly murderous pro-monarchy subtext that I'm sure serves the BBC well with their focus on feudalist dramas about poor rich people in the past. The low-budget renderings have a monster-of-the-day episodic format nearly as ridiculous as that in sailor moon. It is brainrot, pure and simple.
