Jetset971 Review of Dungeons & Dragons

Dungeons & Dragons (1983–1985)

I like a lot! But hated just one thing.

[9/10 · 28 May 2010]

Loads of fun, is the best way to describe D&D! Even though it was a little too tame, due to the fact it was a kids show, it still kept me enthralled. People who are against Dungeons and Dragons never understand that it is pure escapism. Only 1 thing bothered me about this show, that was the character of "Eric" the cavalier. Talk about your text book A-hole!I never understood why a group of these good hearted kids would even look at this jerk let alone let him hang out with them. It seemed to be a habit in the 70s and 80s to have a group of kids in some awkward situation and have one of them so arrogant and obnoxious that you wanted the others to get together and beat the crap out of them! I actually found myself rooting for "Venger", the main bad guy, to rip the holy hell out of that putz Eric! Alas, still a great show, too bad it was so short lived.
