Does anyone else notice a similarity in styles in this cartoon to Don Martin's? I am absolutely certain I saw at least one Martin comic with a character who looks extremely similar to Korgoth, though I can't recall what, specifially. Not to mention various other characters.
This entry makes it sound like "Korgoth" is actually a series. A pilot episode has been made and shown, but that doesn't mean that there will be a series.
Pretty dead in the water. The reason is that, like SciFi (now SYFY), Adult Swim changed its target demographic to lower-income SE USA (i.e. former Confederate) states. (I have seen the general reference to that audience change somewhere but someone else needs to locate the reference.) Based on the fare introduced in the last 2-3 years that target is seen as conservative, low-brow, and heavy stoners --whether they be Goth or Redneck. So of course a complex AD&D themed cartoon with lots of inside AD&D or fantasy book jokes is not going be built into a series. 65.26.138.188 ( talk) 09:46, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
I really don't see the similarity, aside from being "barbarians". Kolgarth approaches a level of bloodthirst and penchant for violence that even Conan would have trouble matching, while Thundarr never takes a life (granted that in Thudarr's era it was frowned on for cartoon characters to kill each other.) -- -Jackel 17:54, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
Don't know if it's worth mentioning in the main page, but I've noticed a LOT of similarity between Gatts/Guts from the Berserk_(manga)/Anime series, and Korgoth from the first episode. Especially with the extreme brutality of the first major scene of the show, where the main character unleashes a shocking ammount of violence in a midieval bar.

Might be nice If we had more quotes...like "Even in death a wizard is not to be trusted" or "I despie all wielders of the dark arts. Speaking of which, can you pass the gravy?". Or the whole "rainbow"speech David88 18:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC).
-Changed quote "ABC. Not my flavour" - Korgoth to Specules, after defeating the bubble gum monster of Specules." TO: "ABC. Not my flavor" - Korgoth to Specules, after defeating the bubble gum monster of Specules." Reason being this is an American cartoon, not British/Canadian/etc
SOMEONE WACKED ALL THE QUOTES!! Barbarians!
I just wanted to add this
Scrotus: “You, You will regret what you have done this day.
I will make you regret ever being born.
Your going to wish you never left your mothers womb,
where it was warm, and safe, and wet.
I’m going to show you pain you never knew existed.
You’re going to see a whole no spectrum of pain, like a rainbow.”
Hargon: “You tell him, Scrotus.”
Scrotus: “But this rainbow, is not just like any other rainbow, it’s-“(Fight scene)

According to the background painter for Korgoth, Adult Swim has not picked up the show. Read here. -- Flask
It will begin this spring. 71.206.136.69 09:54, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
According to rumors on the AS message board (take them as you will), AS ordered two story boards for Korgoth. They wanted to make it a series, and even scheduled a release. Then some higher up executive at Turner canned the series. I guess they thought there was too much sex and violence in Korgoth. That's why it seemed like the series was going to be made, then nothing. 147.155.182.23 ( talk) 03:18, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

I know it was never announced, but even after so many years, what IF Korgoth was picked up for a full series on HBO Max?
