There's been some discussion of it on the conan.com boards.
I've seen it. It's very funny.

Thanks.
It would be kinda fun to do stat write-ups for the various things in the cartoon, like the title character (dare I say, probably not too far off from our comrade from Cimmeria), Stink, Scrotus (sp?), Specules (sp?), the beast Korgoth rode on (before it got hungry and blew up :shock: ), the sorcerous chewing gum, and of course the Golden Goblin ("BEHOLD!!!")
Wow, I've got WAY too much time on my hands.

Did you like Korgoth of Barbaria? Then let Cartoon Network know!
I copied this from Falconer's post on the Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures forum:
According to various sources, Korgoth of Barbaria was only a pilot episode. Cartoon Network is still pondering whether or not to turn that pilot into a regular Adult Swim series. As such, telling Cartoon Network how much you enjoyed the show might prove helpful to its success:

Great news! I was going to be really upset if Cartoon Network didn't pick up Korgoth! Surely, I thought, they could actually not run Family Guy for one night to make room for it.
Its a shame it has never gone beyond the pilot. It like a funny mix of Thundarr the Barbarian, Heavy Metal (namely the stories of DEN of Neverwhere and Taarna of Arzach), and other Conan-ish clichés.
I like such a setting, it reminds me of my Gamma World campaigns (the first two edition was campy and over-the-top in a fun way). I still play Gamma World, but I'm using the Mutant Future rules as they are more compatible with the older D&D games, and I'm working on a house-rule to allow for magic use in the game. If you never played such a game before its worth checking out, and its free! :wink:
