Galavant - About Last Knight


On their journey to find recruits to help rescue Isabella (Karen David), Galavant (Harry Collett) reaches his father's (Greg Wise) lands where he has trouble reconciling the child-loving man in front of him who runs a swordsmanship school for at-risk youth with the father who raised him. Meanwhile the growing romantic feelings between Gareth (Vinnie Jones) and Madalena (Mallory Jansen) become a problem for Sid (Luke Youngblood) who is forced to flee the kingdom and for the Queen who struggles to give Gareth a proper birthday present he can appreciate.

Following Isabella's choice to throw out the wedding planner (Robert Lindsay) and in the ridiculous wedding plans to her cousin, Galavant's Second Season turns on a dime through a clever (and puntastic) story device. Leaving the respected kingdoms, Sid and Wormwood cross paths in the Forest of Coincidence (which is as both as awesome and ridiculous as it sounds) the show is able to conveniently solve each character's needs and set the stage for the final half of the season. Despite Isabella solving her own wedding issues, it appears we may get a big battle after all.
