Based off of the popular movie and stage show, ''Theatre/LittleShopOfHorrors'', ''Little Shop'' was a short-lived cartoon on the Fox Kids block in 1991. It features Seymour and Audrey as 13 year old kids in the present day. Additionally, Audrey II goes by the original name it got in the original Creator/RogerCorman [[Film/TheLittleShopOfHorrors movie]], originated from a fossilized seed rather than from outer space, and of course, [[LighterAndSofter it doesn't eat blood]].

* MythologyGag: Burson Fouch, the flower-eating guy from the [[Film/TheLittleShopOfHorrors original film]], makes at least one cameo.

* ProudToBeAGeek: Played with in the opening of the first episode. Seymour has "spent thirteen years trying to be a nerd". What is missing? "Brains."

* BigEater: Audrey Jr.

* InformedAttribute: Audrey Jr. claims that he likes to [[ImAHumanitarian eat people]], as in the previous incarnations, but is generally shown eating regular food, such as pizza and sandwiches.

** Audrey Jr. has a mind control power similar to that of the original film, albeit absent from the musical.

* UnusualEuphemism: "Compost!"

* InformedAttribute: Audrey Jr. claims that he likes to [[ImAHumanitarian eat people]], as in the previous incarnations, but is generally shown eating regular food, such as pizza and sandwiches. (He ''does'' [[TheyKilledKennyAgain eat the piano teacher]] almost OncePerEpisode, but that obviously [[{{Snapback}} doesn't last long]].)

* SparedByTheAdaptation: Nope, no death in this one (unless you're counting the [[TheyKilledKennyAgain situation with the piano teacher]]).

* TheyKilledKennyAgain: The piano teacher.

* ABoyAndHisX: A boy and his manipulative, mind-controlling, people-eating, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking rap-singing]] pet plant.

* BracesOfOrthodonticOverkill
* ButtMonkey: Seymour

As of this writing, 3 of the 13 episodes have been scrounged up: the pilot "Bad Seed", "Unfair Science", and "I Loathe a Parade", but a 4th episode with an ItsAWonderfulPlot, while mentioned on here, has yet to be found.

* ProudToBeAGeek: Played with in the opening of the first episode. Seymour has "spent thirteen years trying to be a nerd". Only problem? "I'm not smart."

The first episode can be found on YouTube, although it has a commercial for ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' attached to it.

* RecursiveAdaptation

* UnusualEuphemism: "Compost!" (A bit illogical since Audrey is a plant, but can be justified by ''FridgeLogic'' - maybe Audrey finds compost disgusting ''because'' she is a carnivore.)

* InNameOnly: Seymour Krelborn is a kid. Audrey has brown hair and she is Mr. Mushnik's daughter. The chorus girls are replaced by singing flowers. Audrey II has eyes, has traded in blood lust for love of rap music, and above all, is ''friendly''. In Name Only? Very much so.
