It is a series that has Ancient Greece as its central theme, however, it presents Greek culture in a derogatory way. The series "Krapopolis" is about a flawed family of humans, gods and monsters trying to run one of the world's first cities without killing each other. "Krapopolis" was created by Dan Harmon for the Fox Broadcasting Company.
His displeasure with the series was expressed by Savvas Tsivikos president of AHEPA the largest organization of Greek-American fraternities. He even sent a letter to Zen Guerin, Executive Vice President of Fox Entertainment, in which he asked the network to stop the production of the series, saying that it is "disparaging to the contribution that the ancient Greeks made to Western civilization".
At the same time, he requested a meeting with the producers of the series "to discuss why we believe that this satirical depiction of our ancient Greek roots is offensive".
"This series attacks our 5,000 year history and devalues what it means to be a good citizen. It may seem humorous to some, but it is certainly not the values, the history, the heritage with which ancient Greece should be accredited," he said in the letter.
