Korgoth of Barbaria is a pilot episode for what was originally planned as an American animated television series created by Aaron Springer, storyboard writer and director for Dexter's Laboratory, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and SpongeBob SquarePants. The pilot episode first aired in the United States on June 3, 2006 at 12:30 AM on Adult Swim. The pilot received mostly positive reviews. On June 18, 2006, Adult Swim ran a bumper announcing Korgoth of Barbaria was officially picked up as a series. Later events, including a formal petition to revive the show, would indicate that it was dropped before production began.

Korgoth of Barbaria Audience Reviews

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
NitroFrost not only is the show a pretty awesome show but what makes it better is that you got a lot of the people that work on Sponge bob square pants on this one. I mean did you see that coming! I think the pilot of this show would make for a awesome Adult Swim series. This would be right up there with the likes of Home Movies and ATHF. The shows over all plot of a future gone to hell is just awesome, as you can see when Korgoth leave Gog-Ma-Gogg's, also noted in the intro. If you want to see the pilot again just jump to you tube and type in Korgoth you should be the episode in 3 parts "I don't know why but its in 3's". The show makes for a pretty funny times and some line to use and your friends for a very long time"You will see another spectrum of pain". Watch the episode on you tube you won't regret it!
CrassActionHero Korgoth of Barbaria is a fresh new adult swim cartoon. The pilot episode shows us what we are in for! This show's fight scenes are gruesome and often hilarious! Korgoth is the total bad ass barbarian that fears no one, and drinks like a fish. Korgoth fights extremely all-out! From ripping people's faces off to slicing others completely in half! Bottom line, the violence is WAY over the top, but fun to watch! Just remember, this is on Adult Swim for a reason! I look forward to more Korgoth! The Last Word: Korgoth rules! A man's show with a manly hero. I will buy the season 1 DVD as soon as it's available! Don't miss this! BTW, the music rules!
michael_the_nermal For once, The Cartoon Channel has done something right for their "Adult Swim" lineup. This cartoon is a lovely parody of the sword-and-sorcery movies, such as "Conan the Barbarian." It is filled with extremely goofy and exaggerated violence and swordplay. It seems like the sort of cartoon John Krikfalusi would do if he were to choose a parody of the barbarian genre (instead, he choose to make the witless new "Ren and Stimpy"). So far, only one episode has been shown, but this new cartoon looks promising. It follows in the same footsteps as the 1981 classic adult cartoon "Heavy Metal," which had some sword and sorcery parodies in their "Den" and "Taarna" sequences, both of which also had over-the-top comic and cartoonish violence. "Korgoth" also features beautiful decapitations, oceans of blood, and grotesque lines of odor emanating from the fetid barbarians. I love the gross touch the cartoonists have made, with flies buzzing around the protagonist as he urinates. Clearly, this cartoon wants you to REALLY experience the smelly world of barbarians.It should be good, as the creator was the storyboarder for "Spongebob Squarepants," already a classic kiddie cartoon that also appeals to adults. Hopefully, Cartoon Channel should pick this one up. If they do, be sure to tune in and see if the quality of the cartoon remains constant.
my56k Another wonderful piece of work from the brains behind Spongebob Squarepants,although don't be fooled by who made it,this isn't your little kids cartoon,while this is drawn by Genndy Tartakovski (from Rugrats,and various others) it has a very big feel along the same lines as Heavy Metal (not 2000)with the nitty gritty animation,metal soundtrack,and violence galore!though the pilot's just getting around now,I think this show could be another hit for Cartoon Networks Adult Swim lineup!although the title may suggest that this is a Midievil based cartoon series,that's actually an incorrect statement,as the story actually takes place years in the future,in a very bleak future where it seems as though all the worlds cities and structures have crumbled,forcing people to "regress" to an earlier time frame,this being why it seems so medieval.though somethings apparently still carry over to this time frame (ie-Bubblegum wrapped up like Juicy Fruit gum) and some other things that i can't think of at the moment,just watch it and see for yourself.
