The series, primarily a combination of voice-over work mixed with still-frame paintings, was a parody of high fantasy literature, specifically J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. The basic story arc dealt with a "Pudge" named Edward (voiced by Bill Corbett) who embarks on a great quest with his friend Soapwort (Kevin Murphy) and the wizard Primatene (Paul Chaplin) to throw a magic token into the Crater of Despair located in Mount Pain to destroy it and keep it out of the hands of the evil Dark Person.
