Krapopolis Season 1 Episode 16
Dan Harmon’s Krapopolis has made its debut on Fox. The animated sitcom is set in Ancient Greece and features the voices of stars such as Richard Ayoade, Matt Berry, and Pam Murphy. The series promises to bring Harmon’s quirky and familiar brand comedy that made his previous venture, Community, a firm fan favourite. His previous animation, Rick & Morty, continues to shatter all foundations of what animated television can be.
Krapopolis marks Fox Entertainment Studios’ first fully owned animated comedy series. Fox’s faith in Harmon is evident from the fact that Krapopolis was a straight-to-series order. Fox has also ventured into commercializing the show’s IP by making it the first show ever to be entirely curated on blockchain. This ensures you can buy NFTs that Fox comes out with later.
Jordan Young has been confirmed as the showrunner for season 1. The adult comedy has been uneven thus far but Harmon and Co. are finally finding their feet. As we approach the business end of Season 1, Krapopolis is beginning to feel like it belongs in the prime time space.
Here is everything you need to know about Krapopolis Season 1 Episode 16, including its release date, time, and where you can watch this.
Where Can I Watch Krapopolis?
Krapopolis is part of Fox’s Animation Domination Sunday line-up. It premiered on Sunday, September 24 at 8/7c with back-to-back episodes. After the premiere, the other episodes moved to a weekly schedule with a regular time slot of 8:30/7:30c.
Our readers have a lot of options to stream the show on Fox through various options. You can stream from the channel on Hulu with Live TV, Fubo Elite, DirecTV Stream, or YouTube TV. The show’s episodes will be made available on Hulu and Disney+ a day after they have aired on Fox’s cable network.
Currently, the show is not available to stream on Netflix. However, Fox might strike a deal with them after the show has finished its maiden season.
Krapopolis Season 1 Episode 16 Release Date
Krapopolis Season 1 Episode 16 will be released on Sunday, 17th March, 8/7c. Expect the runtime to be roughly 23 minutes, which is consistent with the time frame for the other episodes in Season 1.
After the doubleheader with the first two episodes, the show has chosen to go with a weekly release schedule. However, Fox has made a significant number of changes to the overall scheduling. We will not have an episode airing this week and the upcoming episodes will be announced after Episode 16 airs.
The episode will be available to stream with subtitles. The new episode is titled “Eclipse.” Its plot summary reads: “The city of Krapopolis reckons with a solar eclipse, which Tyrannis discovers is a natural occurrence, not a cruel punishment by Zeus.”
How Many Episodes Will Krapopolis Have?
It is still unclear how many episodes the first season of Krapopolis will have. We were led to believe that this one would be the last. But Fox has just announced two more. For now, let’s stick to 21. So after the next week’s episode, we will have five more episodes to go, unless Fox decides to announce more instalments. The season may as well be shortened. We will update the page when more information becomes available.
What happened in Episode 15?
Episode 15 of Krapopolis is divided into two subplots. The first one involves Shlub, Stu, and Hippo welcoming Jason and the Argonauts. King Tyrannis has given them special instructions to treat the guests hospitably. Since Homer will be travelling with them, Ty sees this as an opportunity to put Krapopilis on the map through his poems.
Goddess Hestia invites Ty and Deliria to her private island Virtulis. She is hosting an exclusive, relaxing retreat for the gods and their human companions.
Hestia has tweaked the air with Brotus, a plant that takes away the divine powers from gods. In this way, she has put the pair on an equal footing. Although Deliria wants to leave instantly, Ty relishes this opportunity to test his mother. But the tables turn on him quickly as he realizes it is Hestia’s cruel way of making fun of humans and their everyday lives.
Ty connects with Tony, Hestia’s human companion over their mutual loathing for the gods. When it is Tony’s turn to speak at the closing ceremony, he reveals his diabolical plan as he pushes Hestia to her death. There is no antidote. Tony plans to take revenge on the gods for taking the humans for granted and making their lives miserable.
There is chaos everywhere as gods start dropping like mortals. Deliria and Ty make a run for it. One of the rebels gives chase and injures Deliria with an arrow. She starts to bleed and her eyes start fading. Ty promises to find the antidote and come back to save her life. He has a confrontation with Tony, who also reveals the giant god-killing machine that they have built. It is armed with a huge arrow dipped in Brotus and aimed toward Olympus.
However, Ty triggers the arrow to go straight into the walls of the room. He proceeds to kill Tony and take the antidote off his neck. Ty saves Deliria’s life just in time and they abandon the kill box to go back to Krapopolis.
In the other subplot, things go awry from minute one. As soon as the Argonauts dock their ship, they are repulsed by the smell. The royal trio can’t even put a word in as Jason instructs them to turn back. However, Stu resists and holds on to the rope tied to the mast’s wooden beam. In this struggle, all the Argonauts are killed in a freak accident.
Homer, though, emerges from his cabin much later. Since he is blind, the royal trio concoct an ill-thought plan to make him believe that all the guests are still alive. They go to extreme lengths like creating a fake scenario with a giant, poisonous serpent to organically present Homer with the conclusion that everyone is dead.
However, the execution is so amateurish that Homer calls them out. In fact, he knew from the get-go that the Argonauts were killed in a freak accident. He kept the charade on to see how far the royal trio would go to save their backs. Homer and the trio make a deal to remember the trip as a glowing account of his brilliance as a swordsman and his masculinity.
