Niña del demonio

Knowing nothing at all going in, I wasn't expecting to make it through more than ten minutes. Since adult animation's golden days, there have been a lot of attempts and most series coast by on generic plot devices and trying to hard to be edgy. Then everyone and their dog had to go mind-bendy, multversy, over-the top. But this one surprised me. It did it's own brand of mind bending, without the over-the-top Rick & Morty Meet American Dad smoothie recipes everyone else uses.

I wasn't expecting to care about the outcome or care about the characters, This happened on multiple occasions in the second episode alone. I figured I might as well add a review because the one that's featured here at the top of IMDB discounts that altogether, looking for style over substance. This is one of the few adult animated sitcoms that uses it's gore and swearing appropriate to context. It's a show about demon-life. It doesn't fall back on edge for the sake of edge. Now not all main characters are all that likable, some of the supporting characters do seem kind of thrown together, but the leads are strong, and there is room to grow. Even some of the most critically beloved predecessors had more growing pains than that at the beginning. Some of them never even grew out of that (looking at you, Futurama).

This is one that should be given a chance to see what they can pull off in a few seasons and take it from there. There is a lot that can be done when the writing team has their own voice in a crowded niche.

I'm a sucker for this animated sitcoms, but it's pretty easy after the first few episodes to tell if a network has created a pile of steaming crap that assaults the audience with cheap jokes or actually delivers on a new concept while also being hilarious. "Little Demon" most definitely fits into the second bucket, and the casting of Aubrey Plaza as the Anti-Christ's mother and Danny DeVito as the Devil himself is just fantastic. Plaza steals the show with the most interesting character dynamic and the best lines. They definitely need to expand the depth of the plot is future seasons, but for an opening season the single-story episodes worked for me.

Being a fan of Rick and morty and animation in general, I've been wanting to try this show for awhile. I ended up watching all eps in one day and actually liked it. You can tell, like the beginning of a lot of shows, there still coming into their own and can become much better overtime.

I love the voice actors, animation, comedy, etc. The only thing I'd change would be focusing more on Chrissy and figuring out her family and powers. I really like the parents, especially the mom, but would want a little more focus on her. I feel like the guy friend is cool too but the best friend character has the tendency to be cliche in a lot of shows so maybe not as much focus?

Also the "odd" character figuring out the "normal life" feels overused as well in general. Nothing they've done so far is boring or bad, I'd just be curious to see more of the demonic stuff and issues she and the rest of the family deals with as well.

I am looking forward to new episodes every week and excited for the drama.

Overall it has really good potential and excited for more.

"Little Demon" (S01, 1/2 hr, 10 eps, FX) is the naughtiest little animated that's aired on a mainstream cable channel (I think). No swear word is off limits, and there's full frontal female nudity in ep 1 so yeh, there's that. I've watched the first two eps so far and the point of the show is 13yo daughter rebelling against feuding divorced mom and dad - Satan who resides in the Metaphysical Realm , not Hell per se, but yeh, it's Hell. He's trying to get full custody since she's coming of age as the Antichrist, but she just wants to be a normal teen girl. The denizens of Hell are goofy albeit nightmarish creatures except for Satan who appears as a cardigan wearing 50 year old safe-dad ala Mr Rogers, but he's voiced by Danny Devito who at nearly 80 you'd think would be retired with Rhea on an island they own. But no, he along with two of his kids are EPs of this show, so that's a thing now, the actor-EP, because getting paid gazillions as an actor just isn't enough these days with inflation and all, you gotta get the show's distribution money stream, too, to make ends meet, sheesh. So far, the show leans heavy on instant possession as a story device, ugh. Anyway, I'm pretty sure the show's not for me because I'm not a teen girl of divorced parents feuding over me, trying to prove they love me more than the other, but there are plenty who will identify with this, so have at it.

Some dude gave it a 1 just because it was a remake or even a copy of an old animated series.. who cares? I gave it a watch and it was unbearable because of the animation and just wasn't that interesting unlike this version named "Little Demon" which is both funny and addicting to watch at the same time. They took an old trash series and made it new and fresh.

See this is a more cleaner and funnier remake of it. I can see loads of potential in this series and ticks all the boxes for me, I'll be waiting patiently for the rest of the episodes and I'm glad I caught this show early.

Episode 1 came off to a good start but episode 2 is when you start to get used to all the characters and the storyline Itself, makes you wonder what is going ton happen in the next episode.
