...well not only medieval..it can portray any period in history but I'm strongly leaning toward the Middle Ages...it can follow fantasy or be realistic...any suggestions?

I've watched
Xena
Hercules
...when I was small πŸ™‚
The Pillars of The Earth
The Tudors
The Borgias
Cadfael
Game of Thrones

Any other you might be aware of...please share

well...strongly is strongly πŸ˜„

Oh you're French. Where do you live? I'm Romanian.

A few years back the French Embassy held a treasure hunt contest in Bucharest and me and 2 friends of mine won first prize and went to Paris for 6 days πŸ˜„. I wish I could move there...tomorrow

Dude, how can you live in Paris and not know about it? Each summer there is a treasure hunt contest sponsored by the mayor. Even people from abroad can sign up for it. I was thinking of going to Paris just for this πŸ˜„

Is your friend Romanian? Bucharest is nice and cheap..and tourists love it..dunno why exactly lol. How can you not enjoy Paris? I'd switch places with you in an instant.

I've been staying put for the last..4 years..I need to travel again but it's so damn expensive. Dunno how you people do it. With cheap airlines and hostels and still I don't have enough money.

Oh noez..I don't know what is the prize for the french chasse a tresor..the one in Bucharest had the trip prize for the first 2 teams. We initially won a trip for 3 days but they wanted to book us to a 4 star hotel so we were like "noooo...can't we get 6 days instead somewhere cheap?". So the nice people at the embassy booked us in montmartre :X

We were there..4 years ago in 2009 I think πŸ˜„

Yup 6 days at a cheaper hotel...we were there for Paris not for some Ritz style shit. πŸ˜„

It took some convincing with the embassy lady but pretty nice folks. After all, they had a budget so it didn't matter for them that much. We also tried to go via Wizzair and squeeze some money there but they'd already bought air france tickets πŸ˜„

have not seen but had decent ratings-
"Parsifal" Filmed in 1984 by Hans Jurgen Syberberg in West Germany, this story of King Arthur and his search for the Holy Grail is an adaptation of the stage play written by Richard Wagner in 1904. Performed almost entirely as a musical, the story follows the knight of the round table on their holy quest. Due to Syberberg's obsession with Germany's past, the film speaks more to the dark imagery of WWII and less about the charismatic personalities you find in later Arthurian tales. "Parsifal" might not appeal to every viewer but the age of the original stage play, the context in which it was adapted and its dark imagery make this an interesting film and certainly one of the 5 best King Arthur movies.

Oh French Sag how I missed you. I thought you had forsaken me.

I used to be bothered a lot when I was younger but now I let myself be superficial about this and enjoy the costumes, the castles and the general atmosphere.
