I completely agree. Blackadder Back And Forth was at best average, and just didn't have the same memorable lines and humour as the original series. Trying to recreate the success of classic shows is almost always a recipe for disappointment. The Legacy Of Reginald Perrin, Crossroads Mk2 & 3, Grace And Favour and any of the recent Ony Fools And Horses Christmas specials are testament to this.

Bringing back Blackadder can only be a bad thing.
As much as I would like to see it back, there's no way they can make new episodes that are anywhere near as good as the classic episodes.
The whole cast has aged 16 years and I don't think they'd have the same kind of energy they had in the old epsiodes - and neither will the writers.
