I'll definitely be checking this out.

British comedic icon Matt Lucas ("Little Britain") is set to join Sean Maguire ("Meet the Spartans") and the talented ensemble cast of COMEDY CENTRAL's epic new series "Kröd Mändoon and The Flaming Sword of Fire," the all-comedy network's first foray into fantasy-comedy. Recently wrapping production in Budapest, Hungary, the series is set to premiere on Apirl 9th, 2009.

India de Beaufort ("Run, Fatboy, Run"), Steve Speirs ("Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest"), Kevin Hart ("Fool's Gold"), Emmy Award-nominated John Rhys-Davies ("The Lord of the Rings"), James Murray ("Primeval") and Marques Ray ("Nick Cannon Presents: Wild 'N Out") round out this exceptional ensemble cast.

"After a long and extensive search, we are thrilled to lock in the perfect cast for this unique series that is best described as 'Monty Python' meets 'The Princess Bride,'" said Lauren Corrao, president, original programming and development, COMEDY CENTRAL. "Each talented actor brings their distinctive voice to these well-crafted, hilarious characters that inhabit the world that is Kröd Mändoon."

"Kröd Mändoon and The Flaming Sword of Fire" is a groundbreaking action-comedy that is equal parts workplace comedy and sword and sorcery fun. An outrageous, live-action, character-driven show set in an ancient fantasy realm, the series follows reluctant hero Kröd Mändoon (Maguire), a thin-skinned and underconfident freedom fighter, who is the last great hope in the struggle against the evil ruler, Chancellor Dongalor (Lucas). To help fight the great fight, Kröd has assembled a band of remarkably ineffectual freedom fighters: Aneka (de Beaufort), the beautiful Pagan warrioress whose weapon of choice is sex, Loquasto (Speirs), the oafish servant with bad aim, Zezelryck (Hart), the young warlock whose greatest magical gift is spinning BS, and Bruce (Ray), who's simply fabulous. Together, they must overcome a myriad of evil obstacles in their quest to save the world, including name-calling, hired assassins and bad hair days.

I think I will be skipping this.

I'll certainly give it a shot, I think a sword & sorcery spoof could make great episodic television, but I don't have very high hopes. Maybe that'll work to my advantage.

I'm a pretty enormous fan of Peter Knight -- who wrote/created this series -- from Big Wolf on Campus, so I'll definitely be giving this a whirl.

Watched the first two eps of this. Fairly funny, but could be better. Matt Lucas steals the show.

Watched it, but didn't laugh once.
Other than the hot chick, I saw nothing worth watching in the 2 episodes they aired.

Thought it was ok, not great. I'll check out a few more episodes, but it's nothing to get excited about.

the name krod mandoon sounds funny

maybe they could get all their material for this show from the medieval fantasy game Augie played in "Role Models"

Honestly, I thought it was pretty funny and liked it. Oh, and that Aneka (India de Beaufort). WOW. Is she ever the hottest.

The third episode has been pretty damn funny. An improvement on the first two.

You lost me at British.
