A cult series between humor, myth… and a round table where we eat cold!

Broadcast on M6 between 2005 and 2009, Camelot marked the history of French television with its humor, its subversiveness and above all its iconic characters as well as its essential lines. Created, written, directed and even set to music by Alexandre Astier, the series recalls the legend of King Arthur, the Round Table and the Grail quest with boldness and originality. A re-reading that is at once funny, contemporary and deeply human, deftly blending comedy, drama and historical fantasy.

Kaamelott’s strength is above all its complete auteur vision: Alexandre Astier weaves a coherent and well-constructed world, served by well-crafted dialogue and characters both engaging and memorable. Each role is crafted for a carefully selected cast whose acting and personality feed the writing. Many of them have become iconic figures of the series and French-language pop culture!

With its 458 episodes, Kaamelott has managed to unite a loyal and ever-growing community. Its unique humor, unique rhythm and its ability to evolve towards a darker and more epic tone over the seasons make it a stand-alone work that we always enjoy watching with the same pleasure.
