Grim & Evil

Anyone know when this show starts? I seem to be the only one at all excited about it and will probably be its only major fan.I just have a strange obsession with Grim reapers,and ive always loved evil disembodied brains.A "kid show" combining these is something i`ll definately be watching regularly...

It starts this Friday. And since it's been mixed in as part of the Big Pick Weekend, the premiere will also show twice on Saturday and once on Sunday.

The show looks like it could be amusing...

It has potential. We only got to see the first one, so like all new toons time will tell.

The episode from last year reminded me very much of the 2nd Bill & Ted movie. I voted for it since it was clearly the best out of all of them (I would have died if the robot would have won!).

It had already won when I went to vote.It reminded me some of beetlejuice too.

What was that robot show called? Robot jones? The animation was horrible!

I didn't much like "Robot Jones," it looked like a "School House Rock" reject. I don't think I could have put up with the visuals if it were made into a TV show.

I haven't seen any of these new cartoons, so I'll watch them when they come on CC weekend. Do they all play at a destined time, all in a row? Or do they play randomly between shows?

I _think_ they're being played all in a row. Once Friday night, once Sat. morninng, once Sat. night and once Sunday morning. I'll try to catch them this weekend, the only one I saw was Imp, Inc., and that one didn't really thrill me (it was trying too hard to be Ren and Stimpy).

I missed grim & evil today,did anyone see it/think it was good and does anyone know what time itll show again this weekend?

Well... The first part of Grim & Evil was actually the cartoon they showed last year in the big pick. After that they had a second one with some stupid brain, which was reeeeeeally lame and I turned it off.

Scythemantis · #10 08-25-2001, 08:35 PM

I just saw it,I actually loved the brain.Everything his stomach said was hilarious.It`s only the first episode so itll probably get better.I still like it more than most of the other cartoon-cartoons.(PPG and courage are the only other two i`ll watch)

What you all vote for? I voted Utica Cartoon. It looks promising.
I'm planing on taping all of the Grim and Evil episodes.

Grim and Evil was okay, I will probably try to watch it the next couple of times int's on, then it will probably be the kind of thing that I'll watch if I come across it while flipping channels. I didn't think that it was anything too unique, and felt that the second Grim segment felt too much like it belonged to a writer from Bewitched or Leave It To Jeannie. I mean, the thing with the Mom finding Grim, and then having him disappear before Dad showed up got old real quick. Other stuff was predictable too, but hopefully it will get better. I'm willing to try it some more before deciding how I feel about it.

I voted for Utica Cartoon too!
We have a thread about the Big Pick at the WBC board, where I go into detail about why I though it was the best.

Vigo Sprax · #13 08-26-2001, 01:45 AM

I liked Utica Cartoon also and I'd have to say that the one I'll vote for (I actually saw it late one night about a month ago and thought it should be a show. I also liked Ferret Parrot too though, and having Mark Hamill as the ferret makes me want to vote for that too!

The Mad Hatter · #14 08-26-2001, 12:49 PM

Captain Sturdy got my vote. Great designs, great dialogue and a nifty premise.
