Musical TV series don’t have a great track record but this new one from ABC might be just what the doctor ordered. At their recent upfronts, ABC Entertainment President Paul Lee called Galavant “Spamalot meets Princess Bride,” which is pretty much on point. I’d add Robin Hood Men in Tights to that as well. I’ll give it a watch but it will be interesting how it keeps up the pace each week.
