Question: Just an FYI about the changes you
recently mentioned on BBC America's
Robin Hood series. [Spoiler alert] Actually, killing off "Robin Hood" isn't new on on a British TV series. It was done 25-odd years ago on
Robin of Sherwood. Michael Praed played the character in the first season, with Robin Hood dying in the final episode and Jason Connery taking over for the subsequent seasons. It was all handled very neatly, since "Robin Hood" was basically the name given to the mythic hero, and if something happened to him, someone else took up the cause (kind of like
Zorro). If
Doctor Who can make it work using the regeneration myth, I'm sure
Robin Hood can come with something plausible, too.
Answer: Thanks for the context. How Spartacus to think "we are all Robin Hood." Thankfully, it looks like we have another full season ahead with the actual Robin before we have to worry about the transition.
