I didn't expect the show to be entertaining, I expected a another serious show like The Legend of the Seeker that was nothing like the book. Surprisingly, it was pretty funny. It's not the more smart kind of funny show, but more like Austin Powers, Robin Hood Men in Tights, and other silly movies like that. The real difference here is that the story gets a little wacky and really has a lot of surprises.
I like how the characters are pretty unique. The main hero is probably the smartest one who isn't very good with running his crew and he's having girl problems because his girl is sleeping with everyone. The wizard is black and really doesn't have any magic. He just lies about it. And another guy (who looks like a brute) is pretty much a wuss and sucks at shooting a crossbow (which he shoots a lot....and hits the hero). The main bad guy is pretty funny too. He's similar to Dr. Evil from Austin Powers, only with an accent and he really seems to have power over his legion.
I have heard some bad comments on this show after I watched the pilot and I was wondering how they can say those things with we see repeated movies like Epic Movie, Date Movie, and other stupid crap go to the movie theaters every few months. Krod Mandoon is funnier only because their jokes are a little more thought out and they aren't totally wacky. Like a man being able to spin so much that he plows through the floor, that would be Dance Flick, but not Krod Mandoon.
My favorite thing about the show is it really reminds me of The Legend of the Seeker. The acting isn't top notched, but when it's supposed to be some small silly show, that's all you need. I think people are expecting this to be a Michael Bay show or something. Anyways, I enjoyed it.
