I saw the ads and it looks pretty lame to me, tbh. I'm interested in seeing how this thread goes because some of you seem to like it.
So this is a British show, right? That's what wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kr%C3%B6d_M%C3%A4ndoon_and_the_Flaming_Sword_of_Fi re) seems to indicate. I might check this out then.
I like British comedy. I'm not expecting this to be another Monty Python or anything, but it might be worth checking out.

you know the wikipedia doesnt always have the right info, right? the evil lord guy is funny, he is such a pansy.

I've been watching this show religiously since it came out. Far too few honest stabs at satirical fantasy shows, so I tend to jump on them with fervor.
I don't think I've ever busted out laughing at the show, but it's consistently amusing and entertaining, there's a lot of good acting talent involved (I've always loved John Rhys-Davies), and the writing is decent. It's definitely a must for anyone who's a fantasy PnP gamer, as this just so comes across like a bunch of modern players acting out fantasy characters.
I give it a thumbs-up. It's not Little Britain meets Black Adder, but it certainly tries to be.

Well I have to say I have been TiVOing this show, I think it is great! Anytime you can get a spoof of a fantasy roleplaying I'm in. The pagan girl is gorgeous and Krod just cracks me up, plus the idea of his warlock who doesn't even have magic, but still manages to keep him fooled. Just a good show.

Dunno how good it really is, I cancelled my cable 2 years ago.
The trailers just made it seem like a stereotypical Comedy Central low quality 'humor' series though.
