Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story

Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

OllieSuave-007 This is the cartoon based off of Tim Burton's horror comedy, Beetlejuice. It tells of the adventures and misadventures between Neitherworld ghost-with-the-most Beetlejuice and his mortal friend, Lydia.It's a fun cartoon series, full of wacky and wild episodes - Beetlejuice playing tricks on Lydia's parents to Lydia getting mixed up in the ghoulish misadventures of Beetlejuice's Neitherworld friends.The voice acting is great, matching the likes of Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder in the movie. The music is catchy, animation is colorful and the overall plot is pretty exciting.Grade B+

julcltr I swear, nobody makes spin-offs like this anymore. Now, everyone makes (and even watches) spin-offs where you get high expectations that it will be as good as the original, but all you get is complete garbage that should have never been made in the first place. But, Beetlejuice is completely different. Sure, it's changed around a little... okay, a lot, but you should know that this time it was supposed to be aimed at kids, so yeah, there should be a few things changed around a bit. Lydia has been made from dull to a cheery 12-year-old for someone who likes Halloween, which was really good I have to say. But, Beetlejuice was the one who stood out the most in this show; he's been made from a notorious sleezeball to a sleezeball that would make even a little kid laugh until their sides get sore. Too bad it's only on TV around Halloween though, you're kids would have loved to see it.

Catherine_Grace_Zeh I used to watch this show when I was a little girl. I only remember it vaguely, though. If you ask me, it was a good show. I remember the opening sequence and theme song vaguely, too. In addition to that, everyone was ideally cast. Also, the writing was very strong. The performances were top-grade, too. I hope some network brings it back so I can see every episode. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever, even though I don't think I've seen every episode. Now, in conclusion, if some network ever brings it back, I hope that you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.

Fire_Seraph I'm sorry, I find it so hard to belive he ruined his creation.The movie was fun and off the wall.This on the other hand,is nothing but a grossout gag fest.I can't belive I actually watched this show,and liked it back in 1989.But I did,for a while.Then,I saw a much better show called Ren and Stimpy later on in 1992.Lets get one thing straight here.Beetlejuice wasn't the first grossout show like some claim.Neither was Ren and Stimpy.That title goes to The New Adventures Of Mighty Mouse,all though it was slight.Now there are some episodes that were really memorable,like the time Beetlejuice tricked Lydia's parents into going for a trip in the neitherworld.Their world is just the oppisite of the world of the living you should know.So,instead of visiting Mount Rushmore,they visited Mount Grossmore where the dead presidents heads started barfing,blowing out snot,and I think blahing.The dad groaned,then fainted.It was so funny.But then they visted what they thought was Eiffel Tower in Paris.Beetlejuice then revealed that it was the Awful Tower,so named because the living dead king and queen got their heads cut off.And the parents who were now dressed also like the king and queen,were also about to suffer the same fate by an angry mob.Lydia then decides to rescue them by using her car,which can turn into a werebeast.And that was one of the other coolest moments in the show.The fact that Lydia's car,Doomey,can turn into a werebeast.Thats really original.I'd pay to see that over and over again.Anyways,what makes the show so different from the movie,aside from the offcolor jokes,was there were other characters in the neitherworld that Lydia befriended.But it wasn't the ghostly couple that was in the movie.It was a tap dancing female spider,a skeleton,and a fuzzball dressed as a cowboy;with a pet that was half bull half dog.Was it supposed to be a bulldog?Well I can't really remember their names,but I could've done without them personally.I would've rather have seen the ghostly couple in the series instead.Sometimes Beetlejuice would play mean pranks on them,and I thought they really deserved it at times.They were both boring and irritating.Another difference was the fact that Lydia and Beetlejuice are best friends,and after what he tried to pull in the movie.She can also enter the neitherworld through him,by calling his name three times;even though shes not dead.And you had to be dead as originally stated in the movie,in order to be there.The most obvious differance was the offcolor jokes,and there was more than plenty of that.It was more like he had become the king of gross with him farting,burping loudly without excusing himself,picking his nose,having severe bad breath from not brushing his teeth;extreme morning breath;horribly sweaty and smelly armpits;toenail fungus;and much much more.It was okay and funny for a while,but it began to grow stale fast.So did the jokes about,sayings and expressions being real,like monkey wrench being a real monkey.Or the Pat on the back, being an evil elf stuck on your back.In the second season,the show began to go down hill, with it not having the same spark as it did when it first started.Part of the problem was that ABC had tried to clean up some the show,and make it somewhat nicer and funny.They failed miserably and wind up dumping it in the lap of FOX.They censored and cut out what little of the show was left that was great.Then it finally checked into maggot hotel by the time 1993 was halfway over.So personally, I really have a love/hate relationship with this show,me leaning more toward hate.There are some memorable moments in the show,but not enough to be one of my favorites.I could've done without many of the offcolored jokes as well.I think it should've been much more spookier and gothic like The Real Ghostbusters,not to mention funnier.Sure,Lydia was a spooky and gothic teenager,but all that was lost on Beetlejuice's grossness.I also wish that The Prince of Darkness would've been a recurring character,and the witch docter would've been in the series as one of Lydia's good friends.The Prince was just as dark and spooky as Lydia,but he should've been labeled as the Prince Of Depression.He cried at every little thing.The CG were refreshing to see as well.But I can only rate this show***1/2.******for the CG,and *******1/2 for the cool werebeast car.And Mr. Burton,when you make the sequal finally to the movie,please leave out those three annoying characters,add the werebeast car and The Prince Of Darkness; and leave the grossout junk behind.And make sure we see the return of the married couple.Also,please don't add those two geeks from Lydias school,Prunes and Barf.I abhorr them as well.
