Petrequin, Allie (MW) Over the Garden Wall 10

Over The Garden Wall was a Cartoon Network mini-series created and produced by Patrick McHale. After he worked on the network's previous shows (Adventure Time, Flapjack) they decided to fund it as a mini-series and air it over the course of one week as the network's Halloween special for 2014. Taking strong influence from classic cartoons dating back to 1923's "Alice's Wonderland" Over The Garden Wall balances quirky comedy and musical tie-ins common in modern cartoons with some very dark themes and eerie imagery. Multiple meanings are also inherent to the story, leading a second or third watching of it to be just as entertaining and thought-provoking as the first. The final episodes even reveal perspective-changing details to the audience that ensure they will never look at the previous episodes the same way again. Over the Garden Wall is available now through Hulu+ and syndicated on Cartoon Network.
