![]() We never felt a lack of love from the execs we dealt with and the studio. Hoberg clarifies, “The truth is, we have so much support from the studio and network. Meetings and presentations are currently taking place (as Karen David inspiringly reminds us on Twitter and Facebook) and despite the cancellation, ABC remains supportive of the show. It’s actually inspiring us to keep pushing to get the show picked up in some form.” Hoberg excitedly shares, “We’re so blown away by the support that we want to reach out and let people know that it means something. Your efforts continue to feed their passion for the show and inspire them to keep fighting for more “Galavant.” During our entertaining conversation, Likkel and Hoberg gush over the fans’ unyielding support and offer insights on the show’s “epic” future, including some imaginative ideas for Tad Cooper’s full-grown form.įirst and foremost, Galavanters, Hoberg and Likkel want to be sure that you all feel their love because they are sending those heartfelt warm fuzzies right back at you. They have been so deeply touched by the outpouring of love and support from the fans. (Photo credit: ABC/Disney via Twitter)Īs most of you already know, John Hoberg and Kat Likkel make-up the dynamic husband and wife duo who were show runners, executive producers and writers for ‘ Galavant‘s’ brilliant second season. Now completely worthy of the “One True King” title that we’ve all been waiting for, Richard pursues lost love Roberta (Clare Foster, “Ripper Street”) in an attempt to save her from a life of becoming an old cat lady, earning him a ticket from the police on the way that hits us all in that secret “oh, c’mon!” spot, I’m sure.Fun-fact: Kat & John were told to wear headphones to look “more professional”. The change between fighting freestyle and with a vengeance that Omundson shows is striking and quite terrifying, so I almost wish we could have witnessed it sooner. We’re thrown back into battle and as Richard fights Wormwood, we finally see the true power that’s been previously dormant in Richard after the supposed death of the lizard/dragon Tad Cooper. The writers are taking all the right stylistic chances with this episode. ![]() What would our younger selves think about who we are today? So even though it’s incredibly cheesy and off-key, there’s a deeper, emotional meaning much like that we’ve seen in the more recent episodes of “Galavant”. It highlights an important question we all might be pondering. The final part of the season finale begins with duet with Richard (Timothy Omundson, “Supernatural”) and his younger character’s counterpart (Alfie Simmons, “The Woman in Black 2”) that’s cringeworthy, but stylistically pleasing. Just as the Jester ponders leaving the audience on another huge cliffhanger similar to that of season one, the screen promptly switches to black. ![]() The first part of the season finale ends with a reunion of friends and the reprise of “It’s a Good Day to Die” that gives way to the clever “Oh please, this isn’t ‘Game of Thrones!’ ” line that will most definitely be recycled by fans. It takes a lot of thought, and apparently a Disney-esque musical number and synchronized choreography for the Queen to give in. Even though it’s whiny and grabs a quick laugh, it’s totally believable - I mean, it took a while for even Anakin Skywalker to turn into Darth Vader. “Actually, I’ve been having second thoughts about the dark evil way,” she spills. Especially the hesitation shown by Queen Madalena (Mallory Jansen, “Young & Hungry”) when the magician Wormwood (Robert Lindsay, “Atlantis”) requests her use of dark magic to win the battle. But despite these humorous inserts, emotions really rule most of this episode. It exposes the Hortensia confidence and the ultimate fear of the Valencians when the battle begins it even reprises a duet between a young couple whose house is unfortunately located right in the center of the battlefield. “It’s a Good Day to Die” is frustratingly catchy. Meanwhile, Princess Isabella Maria Lucia Elizabetta of Valencia (Karen David, “Castle”) faces her own challenges when the Valencian army suggests suicide as an alternative to battle, which leads to a “Braveheart”-style speech and a song. First, in arguably the catchiest episode recap in history and surprising throwback to “A Knight’s Tale”, the Jester (Ben Presley, “What We Did on Our Holiday”) gives us the lowdown on what’s been going on this season, which earns him a round of applause from the armies about to face each other to the death. Tolkien had somehow written “The Hobbit” as a Broadway musical directed by Mel Gibson, then this 20-minute episode would hit the target dead-center. The first part of the finale “Battle of the Three Armies” plays off of the “Hobbit” franchise’s “Battle of the Five Armies” in both name and style.
