The Barbarian and the Troll

A ferocious warrior princess is accompanied by a young troll on a quest to help a wizard defeat a witch and regain his daughter. It might sound like a common theme, but this is a clever, imaginative comedy populated by puppets. Only adults will understand all the humor, which is as layered as you choose to delve into. This is a parody of adventure tropes filled with pop culture references.

Brendar is a comely lass with feltish skin. The maid marionette crosses paths with a troll who seeks a purpose, though he does like to compose and perform spontaneous ballads while playing lute. In days of yore, this was a popular way of conveying lore. They battle a skeleton crew and deal with all manner of natural and supernatural impediments.

This series will be appreciated by all pupaphiliacs. Expect anachronisms, memes, and self-referential humor. Don't worry about the gnomenclature. There's a funny crepuscular raptor, but I'll leave that for another chapter.

I can't help it. Love at episode 1. My 9 ur old daughter and I are HOOKED! It's like Muppet crack!

This is a great addition to the Nickelodeon lineup. Kids will certainly enjoy the eccentric puppets and their sword fighting while adults will enjoy the humor. Everyone will be charmed by the shy bridge toll who burns his bridges and the princess who gives up her tiara and her ribbon cutting duties. There should be lots of fun adventures ahead as the troll and princess combine forces to help others.

A very modern throwback. The humor is spot on for this time, very self referential, tongue-in-cheek, and meta as all get out. The music is infuriatingly catchy as well. Production values seem through the roof, and it shows: characters and environments are gorgeously detailed. I think the kids will love it. I got hints of The Witcher series, but focused on the bard, the music, and the humor.

Edit: They just made fun of my hometown. Had to upgrade from an LA 9 to a perfect Bakersfieldian 10.

It's really fun, i watched both episodes so far and liked them a lot. Also the characters are great.
