SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

TheLittleSongbird I am a huge animation fan, and consider some animated films and shows some of my favourites ever. Earthworm Jim, the underrated gem it is, is no exception. Even as a child, I admired how bizarre it was but also how brilliantly written and animated it was. Revisiting it after goodness knows how long, I still do. The animation is truly excellent, with bold colours, audacious backgrounds and sharp and unique character designs. The music is a delight too, the main theme is well and truly memorable and the incidental music is cleverly and imaginatively composed.The story lines are outstanding. They were well paced, being very brisk and original, a refreshing retread from being predictable and contrived. I also love the characters. Jim is a moron at times, but he is also very charming, likable and witty, while Peter Puppy is adorable, Jim's girlfriend doesn't fall into the trap of being clichéd and the villains are outrageously fun in their motives, how they're voiced and animated and even in their names.What made Earthworm Jim in my opinion was in its writing. This is one brilliantly written show, not only in the dialogue which is superb and enthusiastically delivered but in the surreal gags and post modern humour and inspired spoofs. The voice acting consistently is top notch, especially Dan Castallenetta who is perfect as Jim. To conclude, Earthworm Jim is a gem, and deserves to be better known than it is. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Ryu_2 Put simply, "Earthworm Jim" was one of the funniest and most entertaining television programs on the air during the time of its run, and remains one of the most creatively humorous cartoons of all time.The series takes several of the characters and scenarios from the video game it's based on and brings them to stunning life, including Princess What's-Her-Name, Peter Puppy (who'd always honor anything at all that impressed him with the "Better than..." comment), and a motley cast of rogues who helped keep things funny.It's truly one of the most notable animated shows in history (and had a great theme song too), so here's hoping it's preserved on DVD.

knowledge There were many american cartoon shows based on videogames - pacman, super mario brothers , double dragon and The legend of zelda to name a few. But out of all them earthworm jim was the most effective. Not only did it translate the games wackiness to cartoon form well , but it was hilarious and massively entertaning in its own right.Earthworm jim made a dumb but loveable hero , his rouge gallery was funny (both funny "ha ha" and funny "weird" )as hell and princess wots-her-name was just plain sexy , man (thats right i said it!).And to top it all off , every episode ended with a cow falling on someone.Groovy !.

Op_Prime This show is of course based on the video games of the same name. I only have one question abut this show. Why did the cancel this show? It was hilarious and clever. The show had a great assortment of characters too. Every time I watched this show, I fell over laughing with aching sides. I hope this show comes back to the air waves someday.
