Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire

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.

I started watching this show and immediately got hooked. Yes, the humour is a bit crude for Brits, and women. The jokes are often about sexual shortcomings and alternate lifestyles. Brits usually like to take subtle shots at politicians or celebrities -- that'll never work in America. However, they did take a shot at George W. Bush in the third episode parodying his infamously flubbed "Fool me once, shame on you" speech.

The character of Zezelryck, the incompetent sorcerer, reminded me of Chris Tucker's character in the movie The Fifth Element. It was a screechy Prince or Michael Jackson impersonation.

Bruce, the gay boytoy character, is a bit too over-the-top. Too obviously gay. I liked the character they had in the 4th episode, the Bi-Clops. He was a bit more subtle, and therefore funnier.

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 enjoyed watching this show, and no my IQ is not under 90 (which is considered an average persons IQ :) ) There are many gags that are new as fantasy/comedy has not been done as well before this. The very fact that the show is so tongue in cheek makes it funny. Plus the characters and their defects and hang-ups add a lot of humor to the situations they find/place themselves into.

If you enjoy fantasy movies/novels LOTR, Terry Brooks Sword of Truth series and show "legend of the seeker". I would definitely recommend this just for the lampooning of fantasy monsters and characters that are on the show! Yes it is sophomoric humor, but that is why the show is on Comedy Central.

Not a series to be taken seriously, as you can probably tell from the title. But if you like sci-fi/fantasy type movies and comedies, then this is definitely for you. The strong point of this show is the wide array of ridiculous characters. I enjoy Dongalor (the villain) the most as a character... but there are plenty of memorable ones. The General, Horse Rapist, the weapons inspector, the Innkeeper..etc. The humor is a little on the cheesy side...but it's endearing. This show sold me after the first episode and I ordered the season off itunes. I would definitely give this my recommendation for anyone that enjoys movies such as Zoolander, Dodgeball and their ilk.

For an overall score, I gave is show 8/10
