I stumbled on this show much later... I wasn't sure what it was about but thought I'd give it a try. I was surprised that this funny, well animated show did not get the love it deserved! The characters are well thought out and have good chemistry. I can't believe the people that gave it a one-star on this site... really? Sure, it's not for everyone and those who can't understand dark comedy will never like it but come on, even if you are not a big fan, you have to admit it is well done and should at least be given a five-star. Not sure why people are also comparing it with Tim Burton's work. So are they saying that every clay/stop-motion show that has a dark theme should be compared to those? It's like having every space-themed, science fiction movie be compared to Star Wars. It's just too bad there are only 13 episodes... as with most CBC shows (some deserving and some not), it gets little to no promotion and just fades away. I'm positive if the show's creator had pitch this to Cartoon Network's Adult Swim lineup, there would have a good cult following in the US.
