Isabella also almost admits that she is techincally working for Richard, but is interruppted by Sid before she can. After a close struggle, Galavant is the first one to get to his feet, a victory that helps boost his confidence. The announcer declares that the first one to stand wins. This leads to a hilariouly slow joust, wherein both jousters fall from their horses. The drink does its job but at the joust it is revealed that the earlier training session has caused Galavant's body to be so sore that he can hardly move.
After a hearty training montage where it's revealed that Galavant is a afraid of failing, Isabella decides to further increase their odds of winning by getting John Hamm, Galavant's opponent in the finals, drunk on absinthe. Isabella, obviously worried for the safety of the jewel, gets Galavant moved to the finals based on his merit and decides to train him herself. Unfortunately, they don't have the money for the entry fee, but after some goading from rival jouster Sir Jean Hamm (who's really that handsome devil John Stamos in disguise), Sid offers the jewel of Valencia as collateral. After realizing that they have no money to pay for a stay at an inn or for food, they decide to join a jousting tournament. The heroic trio sets out on their quest but it becomes apparent, quite quickly, that Galavant is hopelessly out of shape. This spurs Galavant in to action and he accepts the job. She is to offer him the jewel as payment and, to ensure his involvement, lie and tell him the every night Maddalena cries about how she was wrong. But after another nagging from Maddalena, where she pointed out how inferior Richard is when compared to Galavant, the king told Isabella to find Galavant and lure him to the castle so he can kill the hero. This forced Isabella out of hiding and put the jewel in Richard's hands. The royal family of Valencia refused to reveal it's presence so Richard ordered the execution of the king. From there she witnessed Maddalena, who is revealed to be quite the shrew, nagging her king-ly husband to find the priceless jewel.
Isabella's kingdom had been invaded and, in order to save her and the jewel, her parents hid her in the basement of their castle. Eventually, after realizing he needs money, Galavant lets Isabella tell him her story. She offers the priceless jewel of Valencia, but Galavant declines, despite the urging of his squire Sid and the pleading of Isabella. A princess, Isabella, seeks him out to get help in saving her invaded kingdom from an evil king ( hint, hint). Galavant is a broken shell of a hero who drinks his time away. Galavant raced to save his beloved, valiantly fighting castle guards and the like to make it to the ceremony, but then the twist happened: Maddalena chose to marry the evil king anyway (he's got lots of money, you see).Ĭut to present day. Our hero Galavant was quite happy with his lovely girlfriend Maddalena when the evil King Richard stole her away to force her to marry him. Villians always seem to get the best songs in musicals.Īll in all, I was happy with the first two episodes and will definitely be tuning in for the next two and most likely the rest of the series. Timothy Omudson is a very good singer and it's just a funny song. I liked King Richard's song in the pilot, " She'll Be Mine," where he describes how he wants to kill Galavant so Maddalena will like him and stop talking about the hero. I personally found the songs very catchy and funny. All of the actors have very nice singing voices too, which is a plus. All the music numbers are catchy and, as I mentioned earlier, tend to get stuck in your head. This is also a musical, so I have to mention the tunes as well. I think my mom said it best when she described it as "almost good-old fashioned goofy humor." It's also pretty family friendly in my opinion there are some jokes for the adults, but nothing too blatant. It's pretty straightforward, but still has some quirks that make it interesting. It's a goofy good time and I'd recommend it to anyone who wants just just sit back and enjoy some nice laughs. I'm going to start out this review out by saying that I loved this show.
Last week I watched the first two episodes, the pilot and " Joust Friends". It's a mini-series featuring eight episodes that are going to be released two at a time on Sunday nights at 8 pm.
It stars Timothy Omudson, Joshua Sasse, Mallory Jansen, Karen David, Vinnie Jones and Luke Youngblood.

They also happen to be part of the opening song for ABC's new musical comedy series Galavant. These lyrics, as well as the rest of this catchy tune, have been stuck in my head for about a week. Way back in the days of old, there was a legend told
