I would say I am near obsessed with Billy and Mandy. This show is one of two, maybe three cartoons I ever turn straight to if it is on Cartoon Network at the time. I think the main reason I like it is because of Mandy; she makes Billy look like an even bigger idiot than he is, and makes the Grim Reaper look mediocre. She is smart, able to figure things out well, and her lines are especially funny due to her terse, deadpan attitude.
Grey DeLisle has got the best voice talents of anybody I've ever heard. She does such an outstanding job as Mandy, yet as Frankie Foster on Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, she sounds like a different person; it's amazing. The other actors do well also, and they do a much better job than those on some Anime cartoons currently playing.
One thing I wish they would cut out, though, is a good portion of crude humor. I'm sure 90 percent of cartoons today have crudeness that should be omitted. However, it is a small price to pay for the joy of watching such an original cartoon that is by no means generic. Every episode is completely distinct, unlike some cartoons whose episodes all follow two or three plots in an entire series.

Since "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" has been spun off from "Grim and Evil", it is a much better show. This deserves to be on its own.
The premise is unusual. Billy (an idiotic little boy) and Mandy (a dark, sarcastic girl) trick Grim (aka Death), who has come for their gerbil, into being their "best friend forever". The show is a series of adventures of the two with their tall, dark and boney "friend".
This is apparently not everyone's cup of tea. The reaction to this show is very strong. Some hate it, some (like me) love it, especially with the rather morbid sense of humor that Mandy has. At the start of every show, Mandy gives a little comment, often relating to the episodes in the show. My favorite is "Evolution takes no prisoners". I'd like that on a bumper sticker!
My only complaint is...Why does Grim/Death have a Jamaican accent?
All in all, if you like "The Addams family", you'll get a kick out of this show.

This show is very entertaining and funny. Even episodes that aren't are still fun to watch. It's about these two kids (Billy and Mandy) who trick the Grim Reaper (or 'Death') to be their best friend.
There are a couple of problems. It sometimes seems like the show is trying too hard to make Billy seem dumb and Mandy can get a tad annoying with her clichéd 'dark' personality. Raven from Teen Titans has one too and she gets on my nerves as well. Still, people seem to like these type of characters.
Apart from that, this is a very good show. It's weird and sometimes creepy. The music isn't half bad either.

I love this TV show. Its dark theme is such a nice alternative from all the other cartoons on Cartoon Network. The series follows Billy and Mandy as they torment the Grim Reaper after coming to 'own' him after he attempted to take away Billy's pet hamster.
The idea of taking something as harrowing as death itself and turning it into a kids cartoon is a really good one and works extremely well. The fact that this show could so easily have been chilling really benefits it. If the theme was taken the other way and told darker this show would make a great film.
The character of Mandy in particular is so refreshing. In comparison to Billy who is basically an identikit of every single other cartoon character on the channel; stupid, clumsy etc, Mandy is a sinister little girl and so entertaining to watch. She is the perfect match for the Grim Reaper. You can always can count on her to do one horribly twisted little thing each episode is hysterical.
I strongly recommend this cartoon, if only to see the deadpan little Mandy. Shes so evil.

weird. but it is, in a good kind of way. I watched it and it is really funny, both parts of the show are really funny. I kind of like it better than the Powerpuff Girls. I hope the show becomes more popular 'cause it is one of the best new cartoons. I have to admit that there is some gross stuff like the bear's butt. That is mostly why its so funny. Don't listen to some people who say it sucks because it dosn't. There is no cheesy animation it has a clever plot. Those few people just don't have a really good sense of humor. So if you've never watched it before, WATCH IT!! If you like to laugh this cartoon show is for you.
