    A strong mini episode, that could have been part of the series!

    This short is whimsically fun, and is very entertaining. I wish this were an actual episode in OtGW though. The art is incredible, and the story is interesting though very short.

    A great opening

    I have seen some hate that the opening to Over The Garden Wall didn't connect and it was kind of random. I personally watched this after the show but it was so adorable. It made me very happy to see an extra and I highly recommend the watch (especially since it's only like 9 minutes)

    Just Plain Fun in a New World

    So this is the beginning of a series. I didn't know that. This was fun from beginning to end, from the understatement to the goofy events and characters that followed. I loved the car. The little guy gets tiresome at times, but he is consistent. Goood creative fun.

    A Cute Demo Reel for the Show

    This short is essentially a proof-of-concept for what would become Over the Garden Wall, a fun mixture of fairytale tropes and classic 'Silly Symphonies' type cartoons. The show is thankfully more well polished, but this was a fun, rough outline for where it was going. I'd recommend this as a fun bit of 'bonus content' if you've finished the series and still want just a little bit more.
