Show Summary

  • Ended
Based on the Tim Burton fim Beetlejuice (1988), this series borrowed several characters and concepts from the movie but took great liberties with them (as was necessary to create a program suitable for children). Beetlejuice is a ghost from "The Neitherworld," the land of the dead - he's a trickster and a swindler, but underneath it all he has a big heart. His best friend Lydia is a very kind-hearted twelve-year-old living girl into goth. Together they made the perfect pair - her even-tempered and levelheaded, and him manic and hot under the collar.''''The show was produced by Nelvana. The groundbreaking CGI shorts featured in many of the episodes were produced by the Calibre animation team.moreless

    I remember seeing this cartoon on Cartoon Network when I was 4 years old but never actually bothered to watch it.Last year I got curious and starting watching some episodes of this cartoon and I loved it.Beetlejuice has to be the only show that can actually make puns funny.It's a great cartoon,very funny and has jokes that both children and adults can enjoy.

    Beetlejuice is a show not just for children, but adults as well! I guarantee that one episode of this awesomely constructed series will definitely leave u laughing your head off and wanting more!! It is a very great sequel to the equally awesome movie!!! :D I highly recommend it!

    Definitely the best show of it's time!! And my 2nd favorite after the Ben 10 trilogy :D The characters are lovable and humorous and the animation is very epic, as is the coloring and CGI!
    Beetlejuice and Lydia, in my opinion, do make a cute pair :D They're my main favorite characters!moreless

    Based on the popular Tim Burton/ Micheal Keaton film comes this haunted cartoon. I am not exactly sure to as what Beetlejuice actually is. Is he a demon? zombie? or simply and "alive" dead corpse. What ever he is, it is know that if you call his name three times he will come to haunt/ be-friend you. In this cartoon it tells the tales of Lydia and Beetlejuice. Each episode is about the duo fighting a creature from beyond this world or getting out of some Beetlejuice trouble. This series was not that great and is not that memorable. Do yourself a favor... keep your mouth shut and keep Beetlejuice in the grave.moreless

    You got to love this cartoon show. I mean, what's in it that you cannot love? You got a creepy, disgusting and sly ghost, who's best friend is a goth girl who loves his jokes, and loves to visit him in the Neitherworld, because her world is just too boring for her. The animation is amazing, and the humour just cracks us up when Beetlejuice starts to shoot jokes, while trying to create a problem of his own, and Lydia ends up saving his dead skin. I think that this is definitely one of the best cartoon series that was ever produced in the end of 80's. Not only is funny, but it also gives us a funnier picture of what the movie would have been, if BJ wasn't the main villain of it. Great show!moreless

    I loved this animated series based on the movie, which I loved to watch from time to time. The story line is shaped a little different but still have some similar things to the movie. I loved all the episodes I saw even though I do not think I saw them all when airing on television. For any kids who like Beetlejuice and think he cool, this series is great for you. It a good show to watch when kids have free time on their hands. I think it might be on YouTube, so try this website. I was unhappy to see this series over but I was glad I saw it.moreless
