The Decades channel has announced they'll begin airing the 1975 Robin Hood parody series "When Things Were Rotten," starring the late Dick Gautier and lovely Misty Rowe. An ABC show also featuring Bernie Kopell, it lasted only a half-season (13 eps.).

Decades will also begin airing "The Fugitive" and some other series.

Medieval humor was sort of a trendy thing in 1975, with the TV sitcom When Things Were Rotten, and also that same year the movie Monty Python And The Holy Grail was shown in theaters.

Well, since they're owned by Weigel broadcasting who also owns ME TV; I just hope they start showing some of those shows.
