Diary of a wimpy kid with added sex and violence.
I have seen the first episode only and I'd say that there are great sets some interesting ideas and maybe closer to the idea of Arthur that I grew up with. But so many flaws. Fiennes as Merlin is good - but the supporting cast are so much more interesting than Arthur himself and as someone else pointed out - the actor playing Kay would have been a much better lead. Also very annoyed about the Ector story line - the man who uses his head and is responsible for teaching Arthur wisdom going all Rambo at the end.
As for 'Arthur' himself - he is supposed to be the son of the greatest warlord of his time and a man who will turn into a great warrior in his own right - just one that uses his head. And what we get is a boy who could pass for a girl.
