Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire

Granted this show is not to the taste of the pseudo-intellectual elite who find it boorish but it still has it's moments and it's funny if you take it at face value (again, Shakespeare it ain't but it makes no claim to that title either). Sean Maguire is ably cast as the main character, on a quest with his flaming sword (which fires up when he seems to least expect it) and his merry band of misfits. There's the sexy pagan chick, the sorcerer who sucks at magic, and the big lummox of an ogre guy who is enslaved to Mandoon for whatever reason. The standout character, however, is Lord Dongalor, perfectly played by an "over the top" Matt Lucas of "Little Britain" fame. At half an hour, the show isn't too long and it's a bit of a welcome respite from some of the other weird junk Comedy Central has in it's line-up. It's not a bad show at all and it seems to be getting better and better now that the characters are being fleshed out a bit more with each new episode. Different but worth a look.

I didn't expect the show to be entertaining, I expected a another serious show like The Legend of the Seeker that was nothing like the book. Surprisingly, it was pretty funny. It's not the more smart kind of funny show, but more like Austin Powers, Robin Hood Men in Tights, and other silly movies like that. The real difference here is that the story gets a little wacky and really has a lot of surprises.

I like how the characters are pretty unique. The main hero is probably the smartest one who isn't very good with running his crew and he's having girl problems because his girl is sleeping with everyone. The wizard is black and really doesn't have any magic. He just lies about it. And another guy (who looks like a brute) is pretty much a wuss and sucks at shooting a crossbow (which he shoots a lot....and hits the hero). The main bad guy is pretty funny too. He's similar to Dr. Evil from Austin Powers, only with an accent and he really seems to have power over his legion.

I have heard some bad comments on this show after I watched the pilot and I was wondering how they can say those things with we see repeated movies like Epic Movie, Date Movie, and other stupid crap go to the movie theaters every few months. Krod Mandoon is funnier only because their jokes are a little more thought out and they aren't totally wacky. Like a man being able to spin so much that he plows through the floor, that would be Dance Flick, but not Krod Mandoon.

My favorite thing about the show is it really reminds me of The Legend of the Seeker. The acting isn't top notched, but when it's supposed to be some small silly show, that's all you need. I think people are expecting this to be a Michael Bay show or something. Anyways, I enjoyed it.

It is an interesting series with a lighthearted take on medieval action adventures. There are interesting characters and funny jokes, but it isn't as well done as it could be. The story is a rehash of your basic peasant knight saves the kingdom type deal, and the actors don't give it 100%. The characters aren't very original, except for Anika, but she is far from a saving grace. I would liken it to Eragon with sex jokes and slightly better writing. I am sad that this series wasn't given more thought as it seems it could have been like the BBC series Robin Hood. Hopefully the writers pull it together and Comedy centrals audience doesn't give up on it very easily.

I was pleasantly surprised when I watched the show. It's just genuinely good! The acting is superb. The writing is fluent, very funny and the story line is good as well although heavily focused on being funny rather then focusing on the plot.

The show looks pretty expensive, the set looks very authentic and rich.

I think that if the show where to be improved to perfection then it should be made 40 minutes long and put a bit more focus onto the storyline.

Other than that it's perfect. A must see for anyone who likes shows like Futurama, South Park, 30 rock etc.

One of the only shows I actually don't want to miss. As for the IQ comment's I have a IQ over 130 and my Father has one over 140 and we both love this show. It has witty innuendos, smart humor and references. I especially love how they make fun of them selves and the genre it's self.

Like the underpowered wizard who constantly tries to prove his abilities by lying or how Krod is a freedom fighter yet he has a slave to name a few.

I just love every thing about this show. So bring me a tub of goose fat and a clean sock because I'm sticking to the tube with flaming sword in hand for this one.
