Story:

The series is set in the kingdom of Udrogoth during the Middle Ages. It centers on Dave (voiced by Danny Cooksey), a powerful, yet cowardly, barbarian who lives with his fashionable and self-centered older sister Candy (voiced by Erica Luttrell) and feisty younger sister Fang (voiced by Tress MacNeille). His parents, Throktar and Glimia, are the king and queen of Udrogoth but are away “fighting evil” across the world (though they sometimes communicate via a magic crystal ball or cauldron) and have left Candy in charge of the kingdom as princess regent, while Dave is supposed to defend the kingdom (since he is the biggest). Together the three siblings, along with their gluttonous and mildly incompetent “wizard” uncle Oswidge (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson), are left to run and protect the kingdom from the comical, yet villainous and devious, Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Piggy (voiced by Paul Rugg), as well as from other enemies and dangers.

There is a narrator, referred to either as “the Narrator” or “the Storyteller”, voiced by Jeff Bennett. He is able to talk to the characters of the show, and vice versa, which breaks the fourth wall to the extent where he was once captured by Chuckles the Silly Piggy and was forced to tell the story according to his kidnapper’s commands.

Dave the Barbarian stood out for its intense use of parody and meta-humor, specifically between the narrator and the characters. The show often included anachronisms, self-referential commentary, and over-the-top fantasy tropes, akin to Animaniacs and Freakazoid!. In one episode, the narrator pauses the story to bemoan his working conditions, while characters acknowledge that they are fictional.
