Movies and TV Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire. Any good?

I have never watched this. Is it good? Bad? Funny? terrible?

It was terrible, but I got a few laughs out of it anyway.

Thanks. But I want more than one person's opinion on it. So any more?

I remember it as being pretty cheezy. A genre spoof, like 'Scary Movie' or any of those types...and not at the top of the class in that category either. There are some chuckles available, but it's nothing to set aside time for.

I just rewatched an episode. I remembered that show being a lot funnier than it is now. That also got me in the mood to watch Stella. Another show I remember being funnier.

Not bad. Can be funny.

"Krod Mandoon and The Flaming Sword of Fire" is an outrageous, character-driven workplace comedy set in an ancient realm. Narrated by Chris Parnell ("30 Rock"), the series follows reluctant hero, Krod Mandoon (Maguire, "Meet the Spartans"), a thin-skinned and underconfident freedom fighter, who is the last great hope in the struggle against the evil ruler, Chancellor Dongalor (Lucas, "Little Britain USA"). To help fight the good fight, Krod has assembled a band of loyal, but remarkably ineffective freedom fighters: Aneka (India de Beaufort, "Run, Fatboy, Run"), the beautiful Pagan warrioress whose weapon of choice is sex; Zezelryck (Kevin Hart, "Fool's Gold"), the young warlock whose greatest magical gift is spinning B.S.; Loquasto (Steve Speirs, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest"), Krod's oafish half human/half swine servant; and Bruce (Marques Ray, "Nick Cannon Presents: Wild 'N Out"), who's fierce and proud. Together, they must overcome a myriad of evil obstacles in their quest to save the world, including name-calling, hired assassins and a bisexual Cyclops (or biclops).

Sounds like a giant pile of shit.

Pretty much my opinion on it as well.

I was excited when I heard about the series.

I watched the premiere episode.

I literally, and totally, forgot all about it until this thread.
