Trivia

This cartoon was a huge success when it first aired on ABC and later became one of the first cartoons to air on the Fox Channel's Fox Kids lineup. This led to Beetlejuice being seen Monday through Friday on FOX while still remaining on ABC's Saturday morning schedule, making it one of the few shows in American TV history to be aired concurrently on two different broadcast networks.

good show!
2 July 2006 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

when i watched this when i was a li'l kid, i could not EVEN remember 1 episode. all i remembered was about 2% of it. that's it! when i watched it again, it still appealed to me, and its a very funny cartoon. compared to the movie, there were some changes, such as Delia likes to humiliate Lydia, like wearing a bunny costume for a Halloween party, Charles is more quiet, but still likes to relax, beetlejuice is still the same but still hilarious, and finally, Lydia is more of a happier character because she has beetlejuice as an intimate friend.

also, it is funny that Delia and Charles don't even realize about beetlejuice because Lydia protects him very well. the characters are drawn VERY well, and the episodes have good stories, such as when beetlejuice had to do some babysitting, but got the wrong idea of doing it and the Neitherworld babies went berserk.

in my opinion, i give this show a 10/10!
