Little Demon

Some dude gave it a 1 just because it was a remake or even a copy of an old animated series.. who cares? I gave it a watch and it was unbearable because of the animation and just wasn't that interesting unlike this version named "Little Demon" which is both funny and addicting to watch at the same time. They took an old trash series and made it new and fresh.

See this is a more cleaner and funnier remake of it. I can see loads of potential in this series and ticks all the boxes for me, I'll be waiting patiently for the rest of the episodes and I'm glad I caught this show early.

Episode 1 came off to a good start but episode 2 is when you start to get used to all the characters and the storyline Itself, makes you wonder what is going ton happen in the next episode.

I was happy with the show from the beginning, but the critiques of bad writing were fair. The writing in the first 4 episodes started out as being pretty predictable and lacked anything that made it stand out. The show was definitely riding on perfect voice casting and a relatively fun concept.

After watching the most recent episode, 5, I think that it's finally coming into it's place. The characters are more fleshed out and the conflicts they encounter spawn some pretty good jokes. I feel like this was the first episode where there were original jokes and an original premise with the Chrissy and Laura plotline.

I would love to see more from the show and think that the potential is there for it to be a great adult cartoon. Unfortunately the general consensus doesn't offer a positive outlook and I'm pretty sure the show will end up being cancelled soon enough. Hopefully more people will give the show a chance rather than write it off as a dud after only 4 average episodes.

I recommend checking it out, despite what a lot people say.

Edit: Easy 9 at this point. 9 episodes in and I'm hooked. The story gets really good and the animation is great. All of the side plots have been hilarious, especially with the Rats vs Roaches plot.

I thought this was gonna be your typical shock humor adult cartoon and while it does have some elements of that, it uses them very effectively. The plot isn't predictable at all and it takes you to some very interesting places. Also, some scenes are legitimately scary and unsettling like a horror movie, so I definitely appreciated that. There are some meh jokes and slightly unnatural dialogue, but I just chalked it up to growing pains, and I am hopeful this show will grow into something great. It's fun, witty, disturbing, and uses dark/shock humor effectively. If FX treats this show right, they will definitely have another hit series on their hands.

Little Demon is a sort of "coming of age" story about a girls who learns she is the offspring of Satan and a Wiccan cultist. It's like if the mother in Rosemary's Baby was Lara Croft and dated the King of Hell, and the baby was some weak attempt of tv producers to relate to modern teenagers.

There's some clever humor placed around each episode so far, and you gotta like some of the characters, especially some of the demons, including the right-hand man of Satan, who's an arguably cute bartender snake with arms, and who speaks like Elmo from Sesame Street attempting to speak fluent Mandarin.

The world in which is takes place is rather strange. Unholy, supernatural events regularly take place in this universe, but nobody seems to care. Some of the humor is forced, and it's quite obvious who the target audience is, and oftentimes it feels more like a cash-grab to be the next "hit adult animation show for teenagers because teenagers are like, totally into this stuff".

It's still fun so far, and you gotta appreciate the celebrity cameos. It tries, and often too hard, to be funny and relatable, but in its own oddly charming sense, it's rather entertaining.

One of my biggest beefs with the show, is that it casts Satan as a sympathetic being, who deep down, has a heart of gold. This is absolute bullcrap, since Satan is the very center of evil and betrayal. The show is set up for a major personal redemption with everyone in his life, including his daughter, his daughter's mother, and even his reptilian servant (serpent?) friend. But I'll eat my words and have a lot more respect for this show if it ends with Satan being the bad guy who has always had it out for himself, but the way this show is going, I'm not going to hold my breath.

I'm a sucker for this animated sitcoms, but it's pretty easy after the first few episodes to tell if a network has created a pile of steaming crap that assaults the audience with cheap jokes or actually delivers on a new concept while also being hilarious. "Little Demon" most definitely fits into the second bucket, and the casting of Aubrey Plaza as the Anti-Christ's mother and Danny DeVito as the Devil himself is just fantastic. Plaza steals the show with the most interesting character dynamic and the best lines. They definitely need to expand the depth of the plot is future seasons, but for an opening season the single-story episodes worked for me.
