AGE
This show may be a crazy and spooky, but it's a show that will pull you in and make you laugh. Have you ever heard of a more twisted group then a angry nose-less girl, a dimwitted boy, and the grim reaper? Not an image people usually see.

Show should be taken off the air
This "cartoon for kids" which is on at the times kids are home from school, is disturbing and unsettling. I was even trying to make sense of the violent actions and crude gestures the characters were doing. Kids the ages 2, 3, 5, were watching it while I was and they were zoned in on the show, who knows what they interpreted from the characters.

Terrible!
I think this show is awful. The constant "shut up" and "you're stupid" and the grim reeper as a babysitter? I think this show should be taken off the air. It isn't funny or cute or interesting. It is just a mean little girl walking around with a skeleton. I will never let my son watch it.

Parents are worthless and so are you.
I think that sums up the message of this show. I have seen many episodes and they are often well-written and entertaining, but the message and themes are simply not what I want engrained in my 6 year old's mind especially when he is going to be 16 one day and a big guy.

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.

Shouldn't, but I like this show
I really should not let my 6 and 3 year old boys watch this show. It does have bad language that my son has picked up. But it is on so many times during the day. And I can't help it, I think it is pretty funny in a sick sort of way. It is very clever.

NOT FOR LITTLE KIDS
This show is pretty funny, but is WAY too disturbing for little kids. Violence: off: there is a scene where cannibalism is implied. Charaters are killed, but comicly. To sick for kids under 8.
Social Behavior: off: Mandy is a compleate s--t headed b--ch who only enjoys torchuring billy, grim, and everyone else. You should watch it with your kids.

Another CN bomb
The reviewer who claims that the cartoons we grew up with are just as violent is in denial of what's acceptable. I note that this reviewer references bugs bunny and road runner? They're animals. And to infer that Bugs was transsexual because he dressed up like a girl and "married" Elmer Fudd? Give me a break. The cartoons of today are characters that don't look like anything recognizable in this world and the storylines make no common sense. At least we knew that Bugs Bunny was "marrying" Elmer to trick him and his one-liners were actually funny. Today's cartoons rely on potty humor, burping, snot and farts to make the kids laugh--much like Disney today...What a shame.

Absolutely Awful
This show has terrible themes and ideas for children. A grim reaper with no good in him, a depressed and depressing girl and a boy that gives a bad name to mentally challenged. Just the fact that the show centers around death is enough to make it forbidden in my house. It wasn't even that funny.

Hey, it's not great but it's interesting.
I've been watching this showing since the old "Grim and Evil" days.
Wow, I was really young back then, wasn't I?
Anyways, this TV Show contains some sexual humor, but not enough to worry about.
(Oh, I love the references to mythology)
It does have it's creepy scenes and it's disgusting scenes. Make that, very disgusting.
The plots are what keeps me watching. Like I said, it's interesting but not a masterpiece.
And if your child starts acting like Mandy, go throw away the TV. Please do.
Now, the bad thing is that this cartoon does a lot of stereotyping. This is frequent and should be discussed.
The social behavior isn't that great either. Mandy is a manipulative bully that bullies other bullies (I know it sounds weird). Grim is a darkly humorous character who acts way too soft to be Death, and Billy is just flat out hyperactive.
Sounds like it's appropiate enough for your kids? Go for it.
And don't blame me if your child starts acting like Mandy or having nightmares.
The TV should've been thrown out a long time ago.

I hate this show
It's crude and crass and my son loves it and I really dislike this show. I think it sets a poor example of what is considered funny.

I've seen worse, but...
The name says it all. The morose lead character is cynical and sarcastic. I don't need my 7 year old watching that. Yes, I knew we grew up watching Bugs Bunny and we survived. I don't think anything from that era matches the grim (pun intended) world view of cartoons like this one. It's just a downer, and I've urged my daughter to choose better shows when she has TV time.

An Amusing Morning Program
Don't knock this wonderful show until you sit down and watch a few episodes. There's plenty of humor directed at children, with clever cultural references and darker humor directed at tweens and teens that most children probably won't even understand. Yeah, none of the main characters are good role models, but they aren't intended to be. There's no need to be over-dramatic about how it's totally inappropriate for children. My daughter loves the show, and after watching it whenever it was on for a good three years, hasn't gotten anything negative out of it. However, she knows not to say the rude things she may hear. Be warned, there's quite a bit of, "Shut up" and "You're stupid" involved.

great, but not the most appropriate
It's a great show, but a LOT of potty humor keeps it from being all that kid friendly

My opinion is that if you don't like the show dont watch it. Dont let your kids watch it. I for one love the show and actually get the humour. So what if children run around pretending to be vampires. The majority of children in the world are running around with toy guns and yet you worry about vampires... I think I would rather have my child run around as a vampire then a child who is learning to use a weapon. A boy accidently killed his own family member because he thought the gun was just a toy. So I say once again you don't like it? well then don't watch it.
