Aleksandar This is Heavy Metal taken on a whole new level!Another Tartakovsky masterpiece, considering the animation, under skillful direction of Aaron. And certainly something we've not by-far used to in cartoons signed by their names.If you've liked Futurama's humorous remarks, Heavy Metal's gore & violence, the original Conan The Barbarian medieval-style (tho depicted on quite humorous way), Samurai Jack's action, all with a tint of exaggerated 'attributes' of 'maidens' similar to Manga-style, and zombie-like barbarians you can meet in Grim & Evil, you'll just love this in all it's blood and gore! Everything here is exaggerated to a point of absurd, which is actually what's so catchy and entertaining.Pure barbarian entertainment! After all, aren't we all a bit of barbarians deep inside?

Ostrumation Korgoth of Barbaria's pilot episode is extremely impressive. The animation is great.The pilot episode displays a whole lot violence, if it's either Korgoth slicing people with the giant axe or him setting ripped up people on fire. The theme song is a great thrash metal piece, and the show is filled with lots of violence, considering it's from a writer from that kid-friendly cartoon Spongebob.Jam-packed with gore and an awesome plot(it's about a post-apocalyptic world and Korgoth is from the North and he must fight evil) with really good animation.All in all, a 9.6, a great cartoon, hope more episodes come. I mean, if "Superjail" got instantly picked up for a show, how come this didn't? (I've got nothing against "Superjail", but this needs to be picked up too, Adult Swim says you can't handle more than one. Is that so?)

leinad_slin If you like splatter movies and film/ comic violence in general, this is the show for you! Great dialog, great everything. Personally I think this is the very best cartoon show on TV by the creature of Spongebob! And seeing that this is the first episode, I think the best ones are yet to be made. Not that the pilot is bad or anything. I love the fact that Korgoth is a straight forward type: when he get's a chance, he makes love to a chick, when he gets angry, he punches someone down. You just have to love him. So do check out the series for your and the shows sake. This is a hit waiting to be seen by those who do and those who don't like it!

mononino So there's only been one episode so far and it might be the best new cartoon in ages. Korgoth is a Brock Sampson meets Conan brute who only speaks in raspy one-liners provided by Diedrich Bader who leads ultra violent adventures filled with sexy interchangeable women and ugly interchangeable henchmen. All of this is accompanied by some serious asskicking power metal. This show dances the line between being an homage to 80s 2D animation and a parody of it. I'm glad adult swim allows entertainment like this to air. The shows creator worked on Spongebob and occasionally you can see it in the animation, esp the character movements and expressions. All around very funny and entertaining show, I hope it sticks around.
