Robin Hood (TV series)/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


The Crowning Moment of Funny page for the films, books and other media based around the legends of Robin Hood.

Robin Hood: Men in Tights has its own page.

The Adventures of Robin Hood

  • "You speak treason!" (gigantic grin) "Fluently!"
  • Little John and Friar Tuck, sizeing each other up.

Little John: He's well named Friar Tuck. It would take half the deer in Sherwood Forest to fill that cabin.
Friar Tuck: And twice that to fill your empty head!

  • All the scenes with Much and Bess that aren't CMOH.
  • Little John winning the quarterstaff fight with Robin on the bridge.

Little John: (slams his staff onto Robins poor foot, Robin then starts dancing around on one foot) And here's your change! (waps Robin on the head with his staff)

Robin Hood (BBC)

  • "The Sherwood Avenger!"
  • "I shot the sheriff!"

Sheriff: "No, you shot his deputy."

  • Robin ambushes the Sheriff in his own carriage to try and intimidate him, only to find the Sheriff has gotten a bit bored with the routine. "Oh, not now, Locksley." When he suggests he means business this time, the Sheriff just kicks him out.
  • When the Sheriff is about to have Roy's mother executed, Roy screams: "You'll go to hell for this!" The Sheriff looks bemused as he says: "What? Just for this?"
  • After Guy is held captive by the outlaws, Marian tells the Sheriff that they're willing to give him up in exchange for Djaq. When he seems reluctant, she reminds him that Guy is his friend, leading to this:

Sheriff: "We are talking about the same Guy? I mean, I've barely noticed he was missing."

  • When Kate gets hit in the stomach with a dagger, collapses to the ground, and nobody notices her lying there for a good ten minutes. What. That wasn't meant to be funny?
  • "...Oh, they're just bells."

  • From Jessica Puller's Robin Hood: The Pantomime:
    • You know what? The whole unwilling dancing bit, just in general.

Alan: *singing* I am suddenly compelled... to tango! *strikes a pose with John while various looks of horror flash across both their faces.*
