NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Mykala Snugglejuice This show is so great. It possesses childish humor that is sophisticated enough to still be appealing to older children, teens and adults. Great vocabulary and puns make this show even better. The dynamic duo of Beetlejuice and Lydia Deetz is fantastic, they have this chemistry that can only be achieved between best friends. With good values being taught through the conflicts in each episode, this is a show fit for all ages. The wildly obnoxious Beetlejuice and the adventurous and sarcastic Lydia explore through the Neitherworld as partners in crime. I love this duo, and their adventures in each and every episode. This is a show fit for any Burton fan that still is a bit of a kid at heart.

dee.reid "Beetlejuice" is the animated TV series based on the popular 1988 Tim Burton movie of the same name; Burton's original 1988 horror-comedy masterpiece "Beetlejuice" is my #8 favorite movie of all time. The cartoon series was a favorite of mine growing up, and even then I knew it was vastly different from its source material (which seems to raise more than a few issues about the continuity between the two, and people's overall enjoyment of the show).I personally enjoyed the show a lot when I was a kid when I could catch it on TV, but it's no Tim Burton "Beetlejuice" ("Beetlejuice" the cartoon was obviously made to cash in on the movie's success, and Burton's increasing popularity in the wake of the "Beetlejuice" movie and "Batman").Like the movie, the animated "Beetlejuice" cartoon series follows the adventures of the title character (played in the live-action film by Michael Keaton), an undead trouble-making specter who in the 1988 film was the primary antagonist of a deceased Connecticut couple (Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis) who called upon the "Ghost with the Most" to rid their home of its obnoxious new tenants (a family from New York City consisting of Jeffrey Jones, Catherine O'Hara, and Winona Ryder). In the series, Beetlejuice has returned and is now best buds with Lydia. There's no animosity between the two and their adventures consist mostly of them and their encounters with other ghastly ghouls and spirits in the land of the undead.There's not a whole lot to truly hate about "Beetlejuice," other than the fact that it was toned-down significantly from the original live-action movie (the titular character's constant swearing, and weird & lecherous behavior), which did at times push the limits of its "PG" rating. But being that it's only a kid's show, that's only to be expected. Just watch the movie if you love "Beetlejuice" so much.Dare you say his name three times!8/10

greg-glen When I was a Ph.D. candidate at Queen's University and I worked out on the weekends, I would often tune the t.v. to cartoons. And I never missed an episode of the cartoon "Beetlejuice." It was - and remains to me - a charming and quirky cartoon with a lively sense of invention and a decidedly offbeat sense of humour. Some people compare this cartoon negatively to the movie "Beetlejuice." I don't think this is fair. Michael Keaton gave a positively volcanic performance in that movie and I continue to find the movie a classic of humour. Indeed, I often wondered why there wasn't a sequel - probably just as well given Hollywood's record with such things, but I think there was more comic potential waiting to be tapped. Questions of synergy aside(the Americans have nothing on the Japanese in this department), the cartoon is not just a ripoff of the movie. It's its own eccentric, squirmy little beast. It really was a lot better than it needed to be, so to speak. As with the movie, there's some romantic 'tension' between Beetlejuice and the goth girl, but the cartoon subdues this somewhat for the kiddies. It's a helluva lot better than some current cartoons aimed at the 'Goth' mindset, I can tell ya. I really loved this cartoon and miss it on t.v. Greg Cameron, Surrey, B.C., Canada

KingBowser13 This show is largely responsible for making me the twisted person I am today. Where to begin? First off, don't expect a whole lot of resemblance to the movie. A few elements carried over, like the Sandworms, but there are no Maitlands, Lydia is much younger, and Beetlejuice has been rewritten from a sleaze-ball into...well, okay, he's still a sleaze-ball, but a LOVABLE sleaze-ball. He is Lydia's best friend (though how they met is never explained) and in addition to being able to summon him by saying his name three times, she can also send herself into his world, the Neitherworld, which introduces us to new characters such as Jacques the fitness-crazed skeleton, Ginger the tap-dancing spider, and the Monster Across the Street. Of course the real reason to watch the show is Beetlejuice himself.The quality of the animation itself is superb, especially considering that this was a late eighties/early nineties cartoon. Compare the quality of the animation to other Saturday morning shows at the time and you'll see that this was top-notch. Heck, they even made use of CGI years before it became commonplace. The writing, too, has held up surprisingly well over the years. True, the show relies a lot on puns and sight gags, so if you don't like that sort of thing, this isn't for you. But they also happen to be GOOD puns and sight gags.All in all, it's definitely more than a worthy successor to the movie. Why hasn't it been released on DVD yet??
