From JJ Villard comes JJ Villard's Fairy Tales. A horror/comedy anthology cartoon series on [adult swim]. Taking Grimm fables like Rapunzel, Snow White and Red Riding Hood, and injecting a healthy amount of subliminal messages, gore and total madness.
- Animated Shock Comedy: Tons of violence, swearing, dark humor, and purposefully-crappy animation? All recipes of this trope is in full display in this show.
- Black Comedy: This show's sense of humor is of a twisted nature.
- Bloody Hilarious: Many of the jokes are about characters dying in a over-the-top fashion.
- Deranged Animation: Downplayed, as the animation style is nowhere near as trippy and chaotic as King Star King.
- Evil All Along: Snow White turns out to be working with the evil queen the entire episode.
- Freeze-Frame Bonus: Each episode has random subliminal messages that occur in a split-second.
- Gender Flip: Rapunzel is a boy named Boypunzel.
- Gorn: Like Villard's other show King Star King, lots of gruesome violence and deaths are in this show.
- Grossout Show: The pilot alone has a character making statues out of bird droppings and having to drink pus for sustenance.
- Stylistic Suck: The animation, specifically the walking, is deliberately cheap-looking.
- Subverted Kids' Show: Family-friendly fairy tales, these are not. In fact, in spite of all the gore and weirdness, a lot of the stories are much truer in tone to the original source material.
