The Sheriff (Keith Allen) puts Operation Shah Mat (translation: Kill the King) into action. He assembles a garrison of hundreds of men, the dread Black Knights. He commissions the development of indestructible armor that will turn his army into Iron Men. To fund his plans, he plots to cheat a high-rolling Bavarian aristocrat, while Robin (Jonas Armstrong) and company try to pull an Ocean’s 11 and rob his impenetrable Strong Room. But big picture: The Sheriff is determined to intercept King Richard upon his return to England and kill him. Robin receives the clandestine help of Marian (Lucy Griffiths), who, with her ailing father, is being held under house arrest in the castle. After the mostly rollicking romp that was Series One, Series Two of this royally entertaining BBC series takes a decidedly darker, Empire Strikes Back turn (let's just hope that next time around, Robin and his men don't find Ewoks in Sherwood Forrest). Along with the daring rescues, swashbuckling fights, and anachronistic dialogue ("Get with the program, Gisborne") that are this series' stock in trade, Robin’s tireless campaign against the Sheriff gets very personal. In the first episode, the Sheriff's snake-fancying sister is killed while trying to administer "death by fanging" to Robin, and Gisborne (Richard Armitage), still smarting from being jilted at the author, burns Marian's home to the ground. Later, Robin discovers that one of his men, not so merry, is a Gisborne spy. And there is a shocking death in the finale that will rock the series to its core. Despite several cheeky episode titles ("Booby and the Beast," "Show Me the Money"), Series Two mostly keeps a straight face. Purists may blanche at the liberties taken with this centuries-old legend, (Marian, moonlighting as the vigilante Nightwatchman, demonstrates some wicked martial arts moves). But for anyone who, like the kids in the exciting episode, "Child Hood," spent childhood afternoons dashing about the forest pretending to be the outlaw folk hero, then the Sheriff's departing words in the season finale will make you quiver with anticipation: "This isn't over, Hood." --Donald Liebenson

You watch child hood fantasies for a happy ending not any type of reality. Life is not perfect nor is it fair but you watch these types of movies to escape real life and you get a shocker. This series is not worth buying. If you are able to watch it on tv or rent but do not waste your money. They plan on killing Robin Hood in the next series...why is it called Robin Hood. You can read this on BBC America home page then type in Robin Hood. It is all there.

I was always excited to watch this series show! I was so disappointed when I couldn't watch the final episode because my cable went out on the only day it would air on TV! Getting this DVD set of Season 2 I can watch the episodes without the interuptions of those annoying curmercials and get to watch the final episode!

This show was halfway decent. However, a major character is missing throughout both seasons and a cornerstone character ends up dead. Yes, I can live w/o Friar Tuck, but how could they KILL MARION!!! Are you joking? There is no Robin w/o Marion. Writers are so lazy and un-original that all they can think think up is killing major characters. For once can the good guys win completely? I wasn't saddened seeing Marion get whacked, but I was very very annoyed. If you like Robin Hood and the good versions ... Read More

I will not tell you how Season Two ended; but I was totally disappointed in the ending of Season Two. Actually, I was mad at the ending. I really enjoyed Season One. I am enjoyed the Season Two up to the ending but they ruined the whole show. I have no intested in watching Season Three.

Robin Hood - Season 2 The New Robin Hood is fun and innovative. I loved the first season so I ordered it. The second season is just as thrilling and chilling! The plot thickens as the Sheriff gets closer to offing King Richard and Marion gets involved with Guy once again. I know that there will be a surprise at the end of this season. Can't wait to find out what happens! This show is a bit modern and a bit old fashion. I think that it's hipness and it's use of current vernacular makes it easy ... Read More
