Disenchantment

"I'm drowning!" "I'm Elfo"...

Yeap, that is perhaps the most hilarious line out of the newest Groenig creation, Disenchantment.

Plot

Made by the creator of the Simpsons, this series takes us back to the middle ages where princess Bean, who rather spends her days and nights in drunken stupor, is joined by a demon called Lucy and an exiled elf called Elfo.

Together they set out to do all sorts ofmisschief, while the king, Zog, tries to unlock the mysteries of eternal life using Elfo's blood, in order to gain the one thing he really loves with all his essence.

This leads to hilarious situations and wordplays, in the style of his other creations (Futurama, The Simpsons), like the above mentioned lines when a lady is sinking in a stolen carriage.

What I liked about it

* the wordplays and jokes, especially involving naive Elfo

What I didn't like about it

* It's not just "there" yet on the level of it's predecessors.

Overall, this 10 episode series is great for a relaxing evening, and I'm curious how it will 'grow' into it's second season when that arrives...
