Move over Spielberg, apparently this short lived TV flop is the TRUE account of Lincoln.

wow, it really is just an extremely poor attempt at being an american Blackadder the third. Niblet is an unfunny Baldrick, Lincoln is a slightly more competent prince and there are a variety of kooky historical figures who just turn up for gags. it's kind of glaring, i know a lot of sitcoms have similar styles but this just seems so blatant. the design of the sets and the character interactions as well as the structure and the jokes which it is trying to make. the only real significant change is the main characters motivation and personality but everything aside from that is a failed recreation of Blackadder the third for an American audience.

HAH!

I actually saw this on a TV special of offensive TV shows, I actually want to see if it's any funny. I have to see this review now....

Ok if they actually made it offencive, this would have been funny. But this show looks just about as tame as "Are You Being Served" if not a little more tame....

Actually come to think of it, this show IS tamer than "Are You Being Served". The sexual jokes are tamer, the slapstick humor is less funny, there's nothing "WHOA" about this show.

After watching a few episodes on Youtube, I'm surprised Pfeiffer raised that much controversy. It's just kind of lame, it's not that offensive and it's hardly funny. It just sounds like a silly idea for a show; I always heard they had Pfeiffer as a slave and that it was trying to make fun of a world where Abraham Lincoln was a hypocritical jackass slave owner who wanted to abolish slavery; that would have been a little funny. Also I didn't see any of the "Haha Lincolns mentally retarded" jokes that my friends told me about in middle school.

Psh, Bugs Bunny's Thanksgiving Diet is a trillion times more offensive than this, if not more.

Isn't this just the plot of "The Pina Colada Song"?
