In che mondo stai Beetlejuice?

This cartoon was funny, as long as you were a fan. Beetlejuice, the character, of course, had to have some personality traits changed in order of the FCC to allow him. Such as, Beetlejuice was the good guy in the cartoon. Him and Lydia were friends. The couple, Adam and Barbara from the movie were not in this, but still, it held up...well, until they cancelled the show. I guess it wasn't show time after all...

Yes yes, we have all seen the movie by Tim Burton, starring Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder. It was wonderful. This show is meant for kids. If you have seen the movie, there is some obsceneties, and gestures that are not meant to be seen by kids. But what Tim Burton did with this show is, make it to where its not so offensive for the kids eyes. What kids were into back then was grossing each other out and finding new means of entertainment. I think, that this was fulfilled by them watching this show. How could i know this? Because i was one of those kids. I watched this show whenever it came on. And now that i am older i watch it and show it to my kid. He's one, but he enjoy's it very much. I mean i still sit and watch it and laugh at some of the things said by the main characters. I would suggest this show to any kid or adult!! Way to go Tim!!

As is the case with many cartoons, many of the jokes are not for children. I found the animated series highly entertaining. Silly and gross are the norm. Fast paced jokes keep coming. I liked the character of Beetlejuice in the cartoons better than in the movie. I did not particularly love the movie but, the cartoon is very funny. I love the way they draw Lyds. Enjoy.

I remember when I was around 7 years old, I got to watch the cartoon version of Beetlejuice. Boy, I loved that show! I miss it so much.

I loved the way Beetlejuice was drawn as a cartoon character. He looks a lot like the Beetlejuice character from the live-action movie (take note that the movie version was made BEFORE the cartoon series).

Lydia was a cute goth-girl character. I hate to say this, but she looks a lot cuter as a cartoon character than in the movie. But this doesn't mean that I like the cartoon series better than the movie; I think both the cartoon & the movie are equally great.

And best of all, this show was even created by Tim Burton, the director of the original Beetle Juice movie! It's very rare that directors would actually be a part of a TV show that is based on their films.

I wish I could say more about this show, but I haven't seen enough episodes and it's been a long time since I've seen this show. Hopefully the show's episodes will get released on DVD, because I will definitely buy the episodes.

I give this show a 9/10.

As a kid, Beetlejuice: The Animated Series was my gateway into the weird and wonderful. I didn't fully grasp the Tim Burton film it was based on, but the cartoon? That was my jam. It was spooky without being scary, funny without being too grown-up, and just the right amount of bizarre to keep my little brain buzzing.

Looking back now, I'd give it a solid 7/10. The show takes the skeletal framework of the movie and spins it into something entirely its own. Beetlejuice is less menacing and more mischievous-a fourth-wall-breaking, pun-slinging ghost with a flair for the theatrical. His friendship with Lydia is oddly wholesome, even if their adventures in the Neitherworld are anything but.

The animation is bold and surreal, with twisted landscapes and grotesque characters that feel like they crawled out of a haunted sketchbook. As a kid, I loved how unpredictable it was-one minute you're in a sandworm-infested desert, the next you're at a monster beauty pageant. It didn't always make sense, but that was part of the fun.

Rewatching it now, I appreciate how clever some of the writing is, even if the humor leans heavily on wordplay and slapstick. It's not deep, but it's inventive. Lydia's goth-girl intellect and Beetlejuice's chaotic energy make for a dynamic duo that somehow works, even when the plot goes off the rails.

It's not for everyone, but if you like your cartoons with a dash of macabre and a whole lot of personality, Beetlejuice delivers. For me, it's a nostalgic ride through the weird side of childhood-one I'm glad I took.
