Fun story. Somewhat flawed casting.

Story is lighthearted and fun. The mix of archaic and contemporary language is done well.

The casting of John Ratzenberger as the self absorbed hack TV writer is spot on. The casting of Keach as William Shakespeare - not so much. To have the host narrator do "The Bard" did not work out well. I just heard Stacy Keach. Not William Shakespeare.

The most fun? The "I concur" guy. Very small part, but very fun.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
