The first Black Adder series wasn't that good IMO, save for the one in which Black Adder is appointed to be the Archbishop of Canterbury. But it gets better and better, especially in the last two seasons where Hugh Laurie joins the show. In any case, it is a very British show, with all the references to Shakespeare and their historical heritage, plus out of place references like speaches of Martin Luther King in the renaissance era!
