JJ Villard's Fairy Tales

Love this show it has great old fairytales that are even darker than some of their origin stories. Its gross and violent which makes it a masterpiece

There's so much that offending for offending sake's can take you, specially in this day and age when that is truly meaningless.

Instead of being genuinely subversive this show just takes the immature route of being gratuitously gross and offensive, there is very little cleverness unless you find characters making wonky random faces with random wonky editing something that creative or endearing. It feels like it tries to be an edgier version of the first season of south park but made by someone that did not understood anything that made a show like south park appealing when it first aired, and of course, this comes more than 20 years later after south park aired, when no one really cares about the "oh no they didn't" type of grade school humor that looks like it came out of the mind of the cartoonist protagonist played by Tom Green in "freddy got fingered" or some highschool flash animator in the early 00s newsgrounds.

Be assured, I am not rating the show so low because i am morally appalled or because i am queasy but rather because i found it trite and thoroughly unpleasant, not because of the controversial nature but for the lack of any redeemable features or a genuine intention to be creative or funny accompanying it. This show is just a compilation of mean spirited bits thrown against a wall expecting some kind of special gold star for being "so out there"

I don't know what they were trying to accomplish here with the walking animation, it's very similar to how South Park characters walk but with South Park it works because the characters are meant to look like paper unlike here so it just looks very off. But even with the weird animation, this show will always make sure your eyes are on the screen with every episode as something crazy is always happening. Each story is rather imaginative with an interesting twist on classic fairy tales, I never really knew what to expect. It's certainly not amazingly good or one of the best works from Adult Swim and it does contain some of the stereotypical adult cartoon elements but it's a lot better than I expected.

Enjoy the creative take on classic fairy tales. Also 10/10 art style and overall theme.

This show is essentially a tamer creation compared to J.J.'s previous show, King Star King. I got introduced to his work through a recent interview done by animation buff RebelTaxi. I liked the first episode, it's a short and fun retelling of Repunzel with a Gory twist. The writers were essentially limited in contrast from King Star King, Limit the profanities, No religious jokes, No sexual content. And granted, they found their own creative ways around these boundaries. I'll be checking out this show as it evolves through the year!
