Yes, please!

I would be more excited about this than just about any other TV premise I’ve read for the last year.

[(Anonymous)]

The last 10 years for me.

Hell yeah, OP!

[(Anonymous)]

I would watch the hell out of that.

[tabaqui]

This does sound cool!

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, please, that would be amazing!

[(Anonymous)]

Yeeeesssssssss, OP! I love a good historical mystery series.

The best thing about Cadfael is that it doesn't feel modern. People didn't act like modern people dressed in costumes. This goes for books and movies both. Social justice issues, my ass. Those would make it just another HBO pseudo historical trash.

[(Anonymous)]

Cadfael was full of social justice issues! He's constantly arguing with his abbot about Christian values and compassion and charity. He travels in Muslim kingdoms. He refuses the title of Master. He holds un-English ideas about bastardry.

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you! He also frequently uses his position to help people who don't have much power: apprentices abused by their masters, women abused by the husbands or fathers, etc. Sometimes he uses strategic half-truths, sometimes he straight-up publicly argues for them, using quite a "humanist" interpretation of some Christian doctrine.

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed in part. Cadfael has a slightly modern outlook to make him palatable to a modern readership. Going back to the eleventh century people thought very differently from us; it's presentism to imagine otherwise, and surely half the point of historical fiction is to see the world through someone else's eyes. If not, it's cosplay.

[volkameria]

Oh this sounds so rad; I would watch this for sure.

[(Anonymous)]

They just want to know how many sheep can graze on this patch of land, now, whoops a corpse... again.

[(Anonymous)]

is this bait?

[(Anonymous)]

Explain

[(Anonymous)]

If it is, it's the best kind of bait. I would watch the hell out of that show.
