2 episodes. Each ep is only a half hour long.

 

[Donut]

Hmmmmmmmmmm

 

[Primal Slayer]

2 episodes. Each ep is only a half hour long.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. That explains it. I thought they were each an hour long.

 

[Sawyer]

God, this show is brilliant. Stick with this, ABC. Stick with this!!!

Vinnie Jones singing and dancing is not something I will be forgetting any time soon.

This show is pure Panto.

 

[CB Fan]

The first two episodes are pretty damn good! I wasn't expecting it to have so much adult humor.

 

[H.U.S.T.L.E.]

This was a lot of fun - tuned in because I was a big fan of Omundson on Psych and he really delivered.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Galavant — which TVLine readers gave an average grade of “B+” — averaged 7.3 mil and 2.0 across its two half-hour airings (7.9 mil/2/1 > 6.8 mil/1.9) , up 28 and 18 percent from Once’s midseason finale.

Not to shabby.

I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this show.

On the one hand, I want it to go on forever. On the other hand, there is clearly insufficient plot for it to be dragged out for too long. So, I want a continuation of the same basic premise, but in other settings and worlds and with all new characters.

I think the only things which irked me were Vinnie Jones' character calling the princess fat (as I'm not a fan of such comments, even when they're meant to be funny, like the latest Doctor making disparaging remarks about Clara's weight in some of the earlier episodes of the latest season). And the extended "yo mamma" jokes. But, in both instances, they were clearly trying to be humorous, so I can't fault them too much.

This was a lot of fun - tuned in because I was a big fan of Omundson on Psych and he really delivered.

That’s exactly why I started watching.

So far, I loved the show. It’s cheap, and the plot is paper-thin, but the characters and songs are great, and I’m not even a musical-genre kind of guy. I really hope this show stays around for a while. Seeing a drunk knight puke through his visor is something I never thought I wanted to see, and yet I had to rewind it to catch what I missed from laughing so hard after that.

For anyone interested, a few of the songs are available on iTunes – the Galavant Theme, “She Will Be Mine”, “Maybe You’re Not the Worst Thing Ever”, and then two songs from an upcoming episode, “World of Dreams” and “Jackass in a Can”.

 

[Sithborg]

I can't wait to hear that last one.

 

[Dave McFly]

I like the alternate version of the opening song and ending song of the pilot as used in this 'commercial'

 

[Sawyer]

God, I hope people are still watching. This is gold.

 

[Dave McFly]

watching episode 3 right now love "Jackass in a Can"

 

[Dave McFly]

watching episode 4 love it so far

 

[Dave McFly]

Vinnie Jones's knock knock joke

 

[chamber-music]

Chef out!
At least let me change my clothes, these are gang colors!

 

[Sithborg]

Good episodes.

I cracked up when the king tickled the eunuch.

 

[John Locke]

"You missed a good battle. Better than anything at Castle Black"

I also love how the eunuch just accepted his fate after the joke.

 

[Sawyer]

Tonight!

The kid versions of Gareth and the King were gold.
