I loved that show! I was about 14 or 15, when it aired. I was all into Arthurian mythology, at that period of time! I read "Le Morte de Artur", and had "Excalibur" on VHS, that I eventually wore out! I also had the Wagner "Ring of the Niebulung" on a CD set. I collected swords, and the whole works! That cartoon couldn't have come out at a better time.

I liked this show quite a bit back in it's day, being a fan of video games like Dragon Quest, and loving the Disney movie the Sword In The Stone, their 1960s take on the Arthurian legend's roots. I missed out on the toy line, but even though I can't remember them all, I'm sure I didn't miss a single episode. "Excalibur... BE MY STRENGTH!"

@liljenborg2517 4 года назад

@@shinmusashi44 Pirates of Darkwater, Spiral Zone, and Exo Squad were shows designed with an overarching story in mind, but never got the ratings or toy sales to garner the seasons on TV they needed to tell their stories. I'd really like to read some sort of novelization that tells the end of the story of those three, especially Spiral Zone. That show got me up at 6:30am back in my college years so I could make it to breakfast before my 8am class. I'd also love to see the rest of the story for that 2011 Thundercats series. There are some series that actually did end. Orbots, Galaxy Rangers, and Captain Power kind of/sort of all had a "final episode". But these days of "binge" watching, ending a series makes a lot of sense. Back in the 80s and 90s when these were all coming out, it was a lot harder to guarantee an audience watching every episode to keep up with an overarching plot. Saturday mornings could get pre-empted by sports (or kids in sports would miss an episode or two), or kids couldn't watch every afternoon depending on family, school, and sport/activity schedules. So network execs thought it didn't make a lot of sense to make a, you've-gotta-watch-every-single-episode-to-keep-up-with-the-story sort of series. Avatar was really the first US series to pull it off, because anime like Yugioh proved you could do it.

I always liked the way Tennyson's epic poem handled the whole central love-triangle issue. He has Guinevere at her window when Lancelot rides up to the castle, BUT she's expecting to see her future husband Arthur for the first time, so she mistakes Lancelot for him, causing her to instantly "catch feelings" which don't go away when she realizes her mistake. It makes her a more sympathetic character and sort of excuses her infidelity while also provoking the reader to consider the whole "love at first sight" idea back-firing. I think the romantic notion of instantly falling in love is perfectly valid and as such it is hard not to see her feelings for Lancelot as inevitable, really makes for a more complex and tragic character in my opinion.

This came out just when I was getting into my teens. I was deep into the Arthurian legends even back then, so I absolutely loved the whole idea of high schoolers/collegiates being transported back to take the mantle of the Round Table. The big departure on this cartoon was that, while the shows were episodic, there was an overarching storyline. Most of the cartoons at the time didn't have that, outside of miniseries events (X-Men's Phoenix saga, Gargoyles). Here, there was a very well-defined objective, with each knight having to get their key to free the true Knights of the Round Table. We only really saw that done in anime adaptations... Voltron, Dragon Ball, etc. So for any American cartoon to do that was something completely different. Of course, we'll kind of gloss over the fact that when they showed the magically sealed King Arthur, he looked old enough to be Guenevere's grandfather...

I remember this one fondly. Probably because of the theme. But a time-traveling football team filling in for the knights of the round table with a vaguely Power Rangers x A Kid in King Arthur's Court feel? Yeah, I was sold.

I'd travel back in time to the year 93 and set the stage for all things awesome and to be kind to one another! Such a great episode with lots of sports ball references! 🏈 I enjoyed this show as a kid, but never had the toys...might need to do some searching now...Aso loved the addition of the WPIX Commercial.

I loved watching this cartoon, and was sad when it wasn't on anymore.

It was a rocking theme song! My wife and I were saying this wouldn't be a bad idea to reboot.

I don't know what I want to believe more....that you guys are so good that you timed this episode for the opening night o NFL on purpose, or that it was some sort of leftover magical merlin influence that helped cause this...

I promise you that anything on this channel that looks calculated or planned is purely accidental.

Dan is rocking the quarantine look!

In an odd way Merlin selecting a football kinda makes sense. They already know how to coordinate their efforts and they’re used to physical work. Slap on some magical armor that turns you into a fighter and you’re solid!

Don't their families and friends worry about them being gone for so long?

@J.Starkweather 2 месяца назад

@@kangaroofuno Possibly. I haven't seen this in a good while but it could be assumed that they get dropped off at the same point they left their own time.

So I randomly come across a picture of one of these... had all 5 figures when I was a kid so nostalgia hit hard. I immediately think "toy galaxy should do a mini doc on these".... I check the channel and boom... 3 days ago Dan did exactly that lol.... crazy

I love that the bumper for cartoon was aired on WPIX NY. I grew up in NYC. When this show premiered I would have been 10 years old and I have zero memory of it. Pretty sure I never saw it.

I remember loving King Arthur & The Knights of Justice I was 10 when it aired.

5:30 In earlier Welsh tellings of the legend of King Arthur, the sword in the stone was called Caledfwlch (Caliburn in modern English) where as Excalibur is the sword Arthur gets from the lady of the lake.
