A crude, irreverent stop-motion comedy that pairs a naive protagonist's earnest idealism with a deliberately debauched medieval setting, sustained across two seasons of episodic misadventure.

Goodhearted hero wannabe Patrick lands his dream job as a squire, only to learn the royal castle is a corrupt hornet’s nest of horny monarchs, crooks and charlatans. War, murder, full frontal nudity—who knew brightly colored peg people led such exciting lives?
