The greatest movie ever made..!

Boring

Better Late Then Never

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Earthworm Jim is a series steamed from a popular early 90s video game which managed to score a 100% satisfactory grade from a game magazine.The storyline, which is incorporated in the theme song, is about an ordinary earthworm, who is lucky enough to have a super suit, meant for an evil doer on another planet fall on him, giving him super powers. He teams up with a cursed puppy, a living blob of snot and a beautiful space princess he has fallen in love with, together they fight evil villains throughout space and protect the planet Earth.Many parody central series (not mentioning many names) fail in epic proportions down to their key element, the lack of story line, yet where many fail, 'Earthworm Jim' triumphs.The reason I feel 'Earthworm Jim' manages to gain attention among other 'random' series' is the fact that we get to know all characters, their connections to each other, their circumstances and intentions in brief yet detailed scenes. With wacky scenarios and reoccurring villains, viewers know what to expect without feeling disappointed by predictability.

Put simply, "Earthworm Jim" was one of the funniest and most entertaining television programs on the air during the time of its run, and remains one of the most creatively humorous cartoons of all time.The series takes several of the characters and scenarios from the video game it's based on and brings them to stunning life, including Princess What's-Her-Name, Peter Puppy (who'd always honor anything at all that impressed him with the "Better than..." comment), and a motley cast of rogues who helped keep things funny.It's truly one of the most notable animated shows in history (and had a great theme song too), so here's hoping it's preserved on DVD.

My husband and I were just discussing how we wished that Earth Worm Jim was back on TV or could get the episodes on DVD. It would be a good addition to our animation collection. (We are cartoon fanatics) We have a 20 yr old son and he and his friends feel the same way. They enjoyed the video games also. There are too many cartoons that we can't even pronounce the names to.If those shows can be put on DVD as soon as they hit the screen; let's give Jim the same respect! My son has the action figures from the TV series. I especially liked his dog that had the split personality. Unforntunatley we haven't seen the movie, so that would be a yes on having it on DVD.

This show is of course based on the video games of the same name. I only have one question abut this show. Why did the cancel this show? It was hilarious and clever. The show had a great assortment of characters too. Every time I watched this show, I fell over laughing with aching sides. I hope this show comes back to the air waves someday.
