It's not uncommon for a successful movie to spawn an animated TV show however it is uncommon for the director of said movie to be heavily involved in the making of said TV show. Well then boys and girls that was the case with the episode that i'm about to review for you all today since I covered the movie yesterday and so then join me as I review the episode that tried to make Beetlejuice into a good guy with the episode of Beetlejuice being called simply just "Critter Sitters" enjoy.
The plot of this episode is Beetlejuice gets a job as a babysitter in order to ern money to buy Lydia a present but things go awry and it's up to Lydia herself to save the day. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very review was in all honesty not that bad since it was very entertaing plot but the episode doesn't explain why these two are friends which considering that in the movie these two were far from friends it's some thing that this episode really should have done in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this episode is Stephen Ouimette as Beetlejuice , Alyson Court as Lydia Deetz and Elizabeth Hanna as Delia Deetz. Also starring in this episode is Roger Dunn as Charles Deetz , Susan Roman as Percy , Len Carlson as Judge Mental , Charles Kerr as Jacques LaLean , Tabitha St. Germain as Ginger and well believe it or not but we also have voice acting legend Tara Strong as Additional Voices.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. Since all of this episodes cast are quite clearly doing their best to make this episodes script work for them and as well as turn in a good performance at the exact time in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Doing the animation for this episode is I think Shanghai Animation Film Studio , Shanghai Morning Sun Animation and Wang Film Productions Company. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad since this episodes animation is really fluid and holds up up really well these years later in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
If your fan of the movie then you'd have noticed that Beetlejuice himself says that it's been a year since he first Lydia and so this show is set one year after the events of the movie. Which is a nice way to reference the movie and this episode is filled with them with the bridge where Ada ad Barbera died being seen in the first scene where we first meet Lydia and we also got a reprise of the day oh song as well which was a nice little reference in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
For some strange reason Lydia now knows how to travel to the Neither World or the land of the dead which she didn't know how to do in the movie. Yes this was done so that she and Beetlejuice could spend more screen time together but it still doesn't make sense given everything that Beetlejuice put her through in the first film which just makes thee whole set up for the how very confusing in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
For those of you that don't know this show first started airing on September 9th 1989 and finished airing on December 6th 1991. With this show airing it's first three seasons on ABC and it's fourth and final season airing on NBC even tho this show only lasted three years still getting four seasons is nothing to be sniffed and it just goes to show you just how popular the Beetlejuice franchise was at that point in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty two minuets and sixteen seconds. Which even with this short running time this episode still felt alot longer then that and that might be because of the fact that this episode really doesn't have alot of story to cover that running time which is a shame because these designs and this world are creative enough to hold your interest for hose twenty two minuets but you still a good story to cover that amount of running time in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then since this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. Since we do get one or two very funny jokes in this episode with Beetlejuice himself getting alot of those funny jokes but at the same time we also get a lot of rather unfunny jokes in this episode as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall this show is just wild and just as chaotic as I remember it being which for the Beetlejuice franchise and for early Tim Burton works is pretty much par the course in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review that means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Beetlejuice fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the official Beetlejuice fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on freaking the official Beetlejuice fandom wiki page are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being really very fairly freaking high in definition.
