Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids

I started watching Grizzly Tales a few years back, and has now returned on CiTV. I must admit, I did prefer the first series, but none the less, Nigel Planer is still excellent at narrating the stories. He is very funny because he does all the voices and Spindleshanks the spider is hilarious!!

Grizzly Tales is a programme where there is a different story every time. Each story is spooky and teaches that naughty person a lesson in a gruesome way (for kids that is) but is very fun as well. The animation is good, but not brilliant, yet the characters & plots are so simple it makes it very good watching. Each episode lasts about 10 mins tops but they make you giggle!! OK, the stories are very far fetched (skeletons popping out of loo's, moles turning evil, stick drawings coming to life - that sort of thing.)

I personally love it even though I'm to old to watch it :) and I never tire of it. I'm a huge fan of kids shows and this has to be one of my faves.

So, if you ever see this on T.V don't give it a miss, it's worth watching and you won't want your 10 mins back I guarantee!! Altogether, a good 9/10.

Grizzly tales for gruesome kids is the perfect entertainment for children who enjoy fright and comedy. I watched this myself as a child and loved it, the animation was simple and Nigel Planer was brilliant as the narrator and voices of the characters. Not only was it entertaining each episode also contained a message that wasn't too preachy, it also had some adult humour as a little nod to the parents. Each episode is about 8-10 minutes long which means it doesn't get boring. I'm not a fan of the " Grizzly Tales" which is the same but the animation is different and the beginning is different and without the beloved spider Spindleshank but maybe I'm too set in my ways to accept the reboot. If you're looking for an entertaining few minutes I highly recommend Grizzly tales for gruesome kids, I can't really find any flaws and it holds many dear memories for me. 10/10

Back when I was 11 years old I loved this show. It has a creepy and macabre feel to it just like the Addams family, the Beetlejuice cartoons and later on The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. It was super popular in my school too. The stories are short and original.

This show has the most vile artstyle I've ever seen. The voice acting is the only redeeming quality with this cheap, badly produced show.

How did this run for 13 years.

My partner and I recently remembered this show and how much we enjoyed it as kids. While we sat there pulling the limbs off still twitching rats we started reminiscing about how great it was. Ignore that reviews that says it's innaprooriate or turns kids into creeps as we turned out just fine.
