MGM+ has taken viewers all the way back to the 12th century and provided them with a near-perfect adaptation of one of the greatest legends to ever “live.”

One part entertaining historical adventure, one part genuinely swoon-worthy love story, and one part political drama, MGM+’s Robin Hood is an unexpected delight, a show that’s so much better than it probably has any right to be, and a welcome reminder that there’s still plenty of life in some of our oldest tales, when someone takes the time to tell them well.

The sobriety of “Robin Hood” does not render it less than entertaining, just slow to engage its wooden wheels in the muddy ruts of a well-known medieval tale. .... Ms. McQueen is splendid, Mr. Bean elevates the entire production. .... But Erica Ford, as a cross-dressing game poacher and archer-in-disguise named Ralph, provides the kind of character and performance that delivers new blood and enlivens an old story.
