"When Things Were Rotten is an American sitcom television series created in 1975 by Mel Brooks and aired for half a season by ABC.
A parody of the Robin Hood legend, the series starred Dick Gautier (who earlier had played Hymie the Robot in Brooks' Get Smart series) as Robin Hood. The remaining series regulars included Dick Van Patten as Friar Tuck, Bernie Kopell (another Get Smart veteran) as Alan-a-Dale, Henry Polic II as the Sheriff of Nottingham (whose name was Hubert), Ron Rifkin as Prince John, Misty Rowe as Maid Marian and David Sabin as Little John. Richard Dimitri played a dual role as identical twin brothers; Renaldo, one of the Merry Men, and Bertram, the Sheriff's right-hand man. Brooks again spoofed the Robin Hood legend in his 1993 film Robin Hood: Men in Tights."
