Blackadder黑爵士 is a British television comedy from the 1980s是一九八〇年代的英國電視喜劇. There were four main series一共有四季, and each one每一季 is set in a different stretch of British history都設定在英國歷史上不同的時期. Rowan Atkinson plays Edmund Blackadder in every series每一季都是 Rowan Atkinson 飾演 Edmund Blackadder; Tony Robinson plays his servant Baldrick而 Tony Robinson 飾演他的僕人 Baldrick.

The joke of the whole show is a family line that keeps coming back: each Blackadder is a descendant of the last one, but his place in society gets worse. In the first series he is a medieval prince. Later he is a courtier under Queen Elizabeth, then a butler to a foolish prince, and in the last series a captain in the First World War.

The joke of the whole show整部劇的笑點 is a family line that keeps coming back是一條不斷延續的家族線: each Blackadder每一代的 Blackadder is a descendant of the last one都是上一代的後代, but但 his place in society gets worse他的社會地位卻越來越差. In the first series在第一季, he他 is a medieval prince是中世紀的王子. Later後來, he他 is a courtier under Queen Elizabeth是伊莉莎白女王底下的朝臣, then接著 a butler to a foolish prince是一位愚蠢王子的管家, and而 in the last series到了最後一季 a captain in the First World War則變成第一次世界大戰裡的一位上尉.

As the setting gets darker, Blackadder himself gets sharper, drier, and more bitter, while Baldrick stays loyal and comes up with terrible “cunning plans.” Though actually, people in Britain often say “Blackadder” the way they say a famous book title: they mean the whole world of the show, not only the man’s name.

As the setting gets darker隨著故事背景越來越黑暗, Blackadder himselfBlackadder 本人 gets sharper, drier, and more bitter也變得越來越犀利、冷面、尖酸, while而 Baldrick stays loyalBaldrick 則始終忠心 and comes up with terrible "cunning plans"並不斷想出很爛的「妙計」. Though actually不過其實, people in Britain often say英國人常常說 "Blackadder"「Blackadder」 the way they say a famous book title的方式，就像在講一本名著的書名: they mean the whole world of the show他們指的是整部劇的世界, not only the man's name不只是這個人的名字.

It is a proper name, so it stays capitalised. You do not use it as a common word for a cynical person, even if the character feels that way.

It這 is a proper name是一個專有名詞, so所以 it stays capitalised永遠大寫. You do not use it你不會用它 as a common word for a cynical person當作指「憤世嫉俗的人」的一般用詞, even if the character feels that way就算這個角色給人的感覺就是那樣.
