Galavant is an American fairy tale-themed musical comedy television series that was created, written, and executive produced by Dan Fogelman with executive producers Alan Menken, Glenn Slater (both also serving as songwriters and composers), Chris Koch (who is also a director), and Kat Likkel & John Hoberg (also serving as writers) for ABC Studios.[1]

The series debuted on ABC during the 2014–15 television season as the mid-season fill-in for Once Upon a Time.[2] The first season consisted of eight episodes which aired over four weeks, as ABC had scheduled two episodes per Sunday. The series reunites Fogelman, Menken, and Slater, who had worked together on the 2010 animated film Tangled (produced by ABC's corporate sibling Walt Disney Animation Studios).[3]

A teaser trailer debuted on September 28, 2014 on ABC during the Once Upon A Time season premiere, which described the series as a four-week "comedy extravaganza". The series premiered January 4, 2015.[4] The series was renewed for a second season on May 7, 2015[5] which is set to begin on January 3, 2016.[6]

Plot

The series follows the adventures of Galavant, a dashing knight hero down on his luck who is determined to reclaim his reputation and his "Happily Ever After" by going after the evil King Richard, who ruined it the moment he stole the love of Galavant's life, Madalena. He is assisted by Princess Isabella, whose kingdom of Valencia Richard has conquered, and Sid, his squire. Meanwhile, the murderous but weak-willed Richard tries to win over the scheming Madalena. The episodes chronicle Galavant's journeys (and the twists and turns that go along with them) through musical numbers composed and written by Menken and Slater.

Reception

Galavant has received generally positive reviews. On Rotten Tomatoes, the show holds a rating of 84%, based on 24 reviews, with an average rating of 7.1/10. The sites critical consensus reads, "While the jokes in Galavant ride the line of predictability, their execution, along with campy themes and silly musical numbers, make it memorably entertaining."[25] On Metacritic, the show has a score of 61 out of 100, based on 20 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[26]

The New York Times' Neil Genzlinger gave it a mixed response saying, "Despite some amusing bits and clever songs, it's only occasionally as much fun as it ought to be."[27] Brian Lowry of Variety gave it a mostly positive review saying, "Owing a strong debt to Monty Python and a lesser one to spoofs like When Things Were Rotten, Galavant largely overcomes the challenges that have traditionally bedeviled TV musicals with rambunctious energy, cheeky lyrics and music, and — significantly — a half-hour format, thus condensing the need to create songs into a manageable task."[28]

TV Line's Matt Webb Mitovich wrote, "With some resignation, given a colleague’s 'meh' reaction to the pilot, I finally cued up Galavant… and found myself binge-watching the six episodes available to me. (And I seldom binge anything.) That’s why I think ABC is smart to double-pump episodes, because yes, the plot progression is a bit slow, pausing as it does to allow for song-and-dance numbers and vamping by the more colorful characters (the king included). You’ll want two at a time to come away satisfied."[29] Alan Sepinwall of HitFix, however, was more negative, writing, "...the whole is less than the sum of its comic and musical parts."[30]
