Synopsis
Galavant (2015) is the ABC musical comedy you can watch online on iFILM — a fairy tale that keeps bursting into song about how heroic it isn't. A knight in shining armor loses the girl, then sets off on a quest belting full orchestral numbers about his own greatness.
Galavant was once the realm's finest hero. Then the wicked King Richard stole his beloved Madalena away — and, to his horror, she settled into life with her captor quite happily. Broke, drunk and sulking, Galavant assembles a ridiculous little band and rides off for revenge, singing the whole way. Timothy Omundson's Richard quietly walks off with the show, turning the big bad villain into its most loveable loser.
The songs come from Alan Menken, the composer behind The Little Mermaid and Aladdin, and it shows: the tunes are written for real while the lyrics skewer every knights-and-dragons cliché at once. Two seasons of half-hour episodes, with cameos running from John Stamos to Rutger Hauer. It's for fans of The Princess Bride and anyone who likes a genre laughing at itself. Stream every episode of Galavant online on iFILM.
