00:00:00.710 --> 00:00:04.463
Is The Ghost and Molly McGee
more sweet than spooky?

00:00:04.463 --> 00:00:06.354
[The Ghost and Molly McGee 
theme song plays]

00:00:06.354 --> 00:00:09.220
"I'm Molly! And this is Scratch- 
my new B.F.F.!"

00:00:09.220 --> 00:00:10.869
Most definitely.

00:00:10.869 --> 00:00:12.950
"Did you just make me fly?!"

00:00:12.950 --> 00:00:16.730
This charming animated series
follows the unlikely friendship between

00:00:16.730 --> 00:00:20.880
a super-optimistic tween girl and
a grumpy ghoul named Scratch.

00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:24.210
"I didn't curse Molly McGee...
she cursed me!"

00:00:24.210 --> 00:00:27.500
Faced with her fair share of middle
school drama, Molly is an admirable

00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:28.500
character.

00:00:28.500 --> 00:00:31.919
While her sunny disposition warms
everyone around her, she's emotionally

00:00:31.919 --> 00:00:34.554
mature enough to talk through some
difficult topics.

00:00:34.554 --> 00:00:36.124
"You know I'm already dead, right?"

00:00:36.124 --> 00:00:37.054
"Oh. Right."

00:00:37.054 --> 00:00:40.725
Molly's also biracial and very proud
of her Thai heritage.

00:00:40.725 --> 00:00:42.390
"I think he really likes you guys."

00:00:42.390 --> 00:00:46.070
As for potential scares, the show's
supposed villain causes mischief

00:00:46.070 --> 00:00:50.090
and tries to frighten people by morphing
into creepy-looking creatures -- but only

00:00:50.090 --> 00:00:51.422
sometimes succeeds.

00:00:51.422 --> 00:00:52.150
"Bye!"

00:00:52.150 --> 00:00:52.945
[Hatch door slams]

00:00:52.945 --> 00:00:54.374
"She bothers me..."

00:00:54.374 --> 00:00:59.370
Common Sense says The Ghost and
Molly McGee is OK for kids 7 and up.
