The Marriage of Figaro

1994 · 1 season

A frothy, farcical romp full of bedroom scheming and theatrical silliness that plays like a staged comedy of manners.

Overview: A madcap three-part miniseries about a sex-mad Eurocrat trying to sleep with his servant, his frustrated aristocratic wife and her toy-boy, and a love-child who's forced into marriage with his own mother, not to mention cross-dressing, blackmail and a death-defying leap from a second-floor window.
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, campy and light. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Love, deception, class, betrayal
Content: Strong sexual content. Mild violence and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
