Title: Krod Mandoon? Post by: Raffine on April 16, 2009, 09:46:55 AM So - has anyone see this new Comedy Central series?
I've recorded the first three episodes but haven't watched 'em yet. The title sounds like a good user name for this forum. Title: Re: Krod Mandoon? Post by: flackbait on April 16, 2009, 01:24:32 PM I saw it when it first came out. I guess it really depends on your sense of humour. If you like dirty jokes you'll probably find some good laughs. That said I thought it could have used a little more humour, but thats just me.
Title: Re: Krod Mandoon? Post by: Kester Pelagius on April 17, 2009, 02:30:46 PM I posted a link to my review of the pilot in the reviews forum.
For those who missed it here it is again: http://cosmic-cinema.blogspot.com/2009/04/krod-mandoon-and-flaming-sword-of-fire.html That pretty much summarizes how I feel. Though, since the 3rd episode has aired, I'd like to add this doesn't seem to be getting any worse yet it's not getting any better either. The best I say about this series is it has a BLACK ADDER vibe to it. Title: Re: Krod Mandoon?

DURP!)
Title: Re: Krod Mandoon? Post by: WingedSerpent on April 17, 2009, 07:13:40 PM Saw this last night. It's definately not making it past it's first season. Given a chance it might find its place but I doubt it will get one.
Still, I didn'y think it was necessarily terrible, and there were a few jokes that made me laugh. I might give it a few more episodes before I decide if I'll keep watching. Title: Re: Krod Mandoon? Post by: Raffine on April 18, 2009, 11:16:16 AM Yep, some funny bits but overall a

They should have given John Lazar Toni Naples or Maria Socas some guest shots. Or Monique Gabrielle if she's still hot and coherent. Title: Re: Krod Mandoon? Post by: wickednick on April 25, 2009, 11:17:16 AM I was really hoping for more out of this show. Its has its moments and Aneka is f**king HOT, but this show needs some darker humor and more action. Hopeing it will get better but probably not.
Title: Re: Krod Mandoon? Post by: Kester Pelagius on April 27, 2009, 03:17:21 PM Like the Deathstalker movies? Where are the boobies? Oh, riiiight, the actors are ALL boobies.
*rim shot* I totally forgot to bother tuning in to last weeks episode and just watched the repeat of it. All I can say is it doesn't matter how hot the Aneka character is nothing she could do- short of maybe stuffing a cucumber in her [BEEP]- will ever distract the audience from the lame writing. Honestly when a show has a character named "Emperor Zanus" and the joke is the characters pronouce the name "Emperor's Anus" you can pretty much just flush this down the toilet with the rest of the crap. |
