Team KRA vs. Khyber: TAS is a Flarlandian direct-to-television film produced entirely by Couch Slave Entertainment that will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray in September 2019 and later shown on Channel 14 in December 2019. The film will feature a showdown between Khyber, Rhett and Arrow as they appeared on Team KRA versus their appearance on Khyber: The Animated Series. The film will have staff from Team KRA. The film was released in September 2019 on digital download followed by a physical release in October.

Premise[edit | edit source]

The film starts with Khyber checking his mailbox. He suddenly receives a message from an unknown email address, simply saying "do not open". Khyber opens and receives a photograph of his Team KRA self. He starts investigating until he realizes that the mail went past an interdimensional portal. He then witnesses that his 2003 counterpart is paying a visit "to the real world" (assuming the world of Khyber: The Animated Series is real and is making a meta reference to Team KRA, as witnessed in the series) and invites the "real" Khyber, Rhett and Arrow to their world.

Production[edit | edit source]

A mid-credits scene from Khyber: The Animated Film is set in the office of the Khyber Waterman Detectives Agency as seen on Team KRA. Khyber is lonely and receives, for the first time in twelve years, an e-mail from Khyber's K:TAS counterpart saying that the two were going to meet at one point. The scene ends with a caricature of Khyber Waterman (similar to his K:TAS self) bringing a piece of paper to his Team KRA counterpart with the question "Do you want a season 6 of Khyber: The Animated Series or Team KRA?" and he is undecided. The teaser ends with a solid COMING SOON followed by another screen saying NO JOKE. The scene was, for many fans, a sign of hope for a sixth season of Team KRA, coupled with Channel 14's HD reruns that started in the previous year.

A trailer for Team KRA vs. Khyber: TAS appeared on the previews at the start of the Khyber: The Animated Film DVD. Many fans believed it was a joke until Khyber Waterman announced that a television film is under development and is set to be released in 2019. Shortly after the film's release, it was officially announced that Channel 14 would premiere the film and would screen it as part of a possibly revived It's Khyber strand of programming.

A two-minute trailer, featuring the now-iconic scene where Khyber's Team KRA counterpart is checking his e-mail and finds new correspondence for the first time in thirteen years, was released on June 26 on YouTube and Facebook (and on Channel 14 at 20:30). The film will apparently run for an hour.
