Genndy Tartakovsky, creator of Dexter's Laboratory and Samurai Jack, directed the pilot's animation; and was not the first time he's done so. He also produced and directed Aaron Springer's previous pilot: Periwinkle Around the World.
The pilot was created by Aaron Springer, who also created other failed pilots at Cartoon Network Studios, such as Periwinkle Around the World and Baloobaloob's Fun-Park. Springer is also the creator of Disney XD's Billy Dilley's Super-Duper Subterranean Summer.
On June 18, 2006, Adult Swim ran a bumper announcing that Korgoth of Barbaria was officially picked up as a series, because of its critical and commercial success with garnering high ratings. Later events, including a formal petition to revive the show, would indicate that it was dropped before production began, due to high production costs and political discrimination towards Aaron Springer's conservative views.
