What Parents Need to Know
About The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy
Parents need to know that this show isn't really appropriate for younger kids, even though it might be popular with the 7 and up set. Some moments are truly scary and disgusting -- and too much for a young child to handle. Some ghoulish images, especially of the Grim Reaper himself, are visually scary. His body is a skeleton that goes to pieces at times and then reconstructs. Also, he carries a scythe and threatens to put people to rest. On the other hand, those old enough to have a good sense of self might enjoy this program. It's clever, bizarre, and funny. It has the appeal that Ren and Stimpy held for college kids, paired with a dark element that tweens and teens might enjoy.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about whether the show is meant to be scary or not. Why would a show aimed at kids include the Grim Reaper as a character? Does he scare you, or do you find him funny? Why?

it's animated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's not that scary it is a little off clor, it will go over kid's head, but i have to put down sexual content
- I rate this title iffy for age 10 and give itMy concerns are:
- Excessive violence
- Negative role models
Maybe for tweens and early teenagers but not for kids
This show is just weird. My 7 year old likes it but I am sitting here listening to it as I type this, and I just think it's creepy and a little off for kids that age. I would like her to stop watching it, or at least watch it a little less but she won't have that because it's her favorite show! I think this show is more appropriate for Adult Swim instead of as a kids show.

SWEET!!!!!
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO love this show!!!!!!! The grim reaper is my favorite, though he is stereotyped as a west indies/jamaican guy...it's a really great show.
- I rate this title iffy for age 9 and give it
Cruel...
Well, this is not one of my favorite shows, but it is pretty good. But I don't really understand how they can show a thing like this on Cartoon Network... Too much crude violence in my opinion.
