What world are you in Beetlejuice? (Beetlejuice) - the 1989 animated series
Beetlejuice is one of those characters that one cannot help but love. He is rude, rude and utterly hilarious. The 1989 animated series "What world are you in Beetlejuice?"(Original title Beetlejuice) was a Canadian-US production that aired for four seasons on ABC and Fox Kids. The series was inspired by The Movie Beetlejuice by Tim Burton saw the voice of Stephen Ouimette in the title role.
The series followed the misadventures of Beetlejuice, a ghost with the ability to travel between the world of the living and the world of the dead. He often helped (or hindered) Lydia Deetz, a young girl who was able to see ghosts. Together they engaged in all sorts of extravagant pranks, which usually involved Beetlejuice in an attempt to trick Lydia into getting her to marry him.
The show was filled with black humor and witty jokes. He was a perfect example of Tim Burton's unique vision and is still fondly remembered by fans today. If you have never seen the show, I highly recommend that you go and see it. It's a timeless classic that is sure to make you smile.
The series was broadcast in Italy by Canale 5, Italia 1 and Boing.

Characters
Beetlejuice - A ghost and the main and title character of the show, who likes to eat insects and is known throughout the Netherworld as a prankster. He is the eldest son of Gnat and Bee Juice (who pester him to get a job and to keep himself clean, and who always call him "Junior"), and has a "disgustingly cheerful" younger brother named Donny Juice (who, what if realizes it or not, makes his older brother nervous). Beetlejuice is named after the star Betelgeuse. Beetlejuice is capable of shape shifting, transforming and summoning objects, teleporting and performing other acts of magic, although her powers can be reduced by various circumstances, such as when she feels fear or when her head is separated from her body. Sometimes, he has to stop and think about exactly how to use his powers to get out of a precarious situation unscathed. Because of what is later described in the series as his "juice" (his innate source of magic), whenever Beetlejuice speaks a figure of speech aloud, he or his surroundings change to act upon the game. of words. Almost all of her transformations retain the black and white stripe pattern she wears on her dress, although sometimes the stripes are colored depending on the transformation. Although many Neitherworld denizens have some magic, it is Beetlejuice's far superior power (no real cause for this has ever been given) that gives it the title, albeit mostly self-affirmed, of “The Ghost With The Most ”(another verse borrowed from the film); in fact, on multiple occasions, Beetlejuice has been able to effortlessly subdue a number of supernatural beings, and his discorporeal, self-sentient brain once claims that Beetlejuice's power is more than enough to conquer the entire Netherworld. . Because of that power, nearly everyone in the Netherworld is fair game to his jokes, though no more than himself, as he is not immune to the careless use of his power. Sometimes Beetlejuice will confuse one of his transformations, due to homophone based confusion (when Lydia told him to transform into a stake to fight Count Me-In, he turned into a steak on the flank). At times, various parts of his body (including his feet and entire torso) manifested minds of their own, independent of Beetlejuice's control, with his brain and even his entire skeletal system having to abandon him once. Beetlejuice's main pastime is playing tricks on other Netherworld inhabitants such as Jacques, Ginger, The Monster Across the Street, Poopsie, the Mayor and in the Living World she is Lydia's rival, Claire Brewster and occasionally her parents. Beetlejuice's jokes about many seem to cause them great embarrassment or harm, but his jokes about Lydia, however, are only meant to tease her, not cause harm, which shows that he cares for her. In fact, Lydia appears to be the only person who has control over Beetlejuice. He also said in one episode that he would do anything for her, and she, in turn, reciprocates his feelings. Beetlejuice constantly devises get-rich-quick scams to get money, as he fears he will have to find a job, and in subsequent episodes (particularly in the second half of season four), Beetlejuice's greed becomes so intense that he sometimes neglects his friends and his family, and even when Lydia openly berates him, Beetlejuice displays an incredible reluctance or reluctance to give up on her patterns. His favorite foods are insects of various kinds, especially cockroaches and worms. Beetlejuice also loves wreaking havoc in the Netherworld and being dirty, and the latter causes Beetlejuice to have a pathological and psychotic hatred of bathrooms. Despite this cynical and childish attitude, Beetlejuice proves to be a profound and insightful person, often reciting quotes of philosophical and humanitarian importance. The things he hates include cleanliness and anything "nice".

He expresses his likes and dislikes through variations on a single catchphrase, as in "Nerd humor you know I love it!" or "rules you know I hate them!" The only known thing that Beetlejuice is afraid of is sandworms, so much so that he is unable to use his powers when he encounters them. However, on some of the occasions, Beetlejuice managed to overcome his fear and use his magic to fight them. This is usually thanks to Lydia's encouragement, or if someone else is in danger. Lydia once told Judge Mental: "Beetlejuice couldn't use his powers to save himself, but he could do it for a child." Several times, Beetlejuice interacted with Lydia's parents in the "real world" of Peaceful Pines, also under the name of "Mr. Beetleman, ”and in a couple of cases, he made a gender change on himself to become a teenager of Lydia's age at Lydia's school as“ Mr.
Lydia Deetz - A goth girl in her pre-teens early in the series and early teens later in the series. Lydia's favorite hobby is reading literary classics such as the collective works of writers such as Edgar Allan Poe, Stephen King and other gothic and horror writers. She has established herself as a creative, bright, lively, sharp, but eccentric girl, but otherwise Lydia's unique outlook on life makes her stand out from most other students, which leaves her feeling out of place and alone in the real world. , finding it difficult to adapt well to most of her classmates… leading her to visit frequently and seek reassurance with her closest friend, Beetlejuice, in the Netherworld, where she is accepted and loved for who she is as a person. Her usual outfit at home is a long dark purple top, a pair of black leggings, a light purple and pink sash tied around the waist, and black slippers / ballet flats. Her Neitherworld outfit consists of a large red poncho with a spider web pattern, over a full-body black jumpsuit. Lydia is a talented photographer, entomologist, seamstress and artist with an affinity and a love for all that is gross, scary, weird, surreal and macabre, and who celebrates all that is (in the words of her cinematic incarnation) " strange and unusual ". Despite her love of all things "weird and unusual", Lydia is also a positive, polite, friendly and patient girl, and besides being emotionally mature for her age, Lydia can be credited as being very responsible for a girl in his age group. Lydia has also shown that she is a naturalist, who has proven to be very sensitive to environmental issues, even to the point of chaining herself to a tree, which Beetlejuice soon brought to life to save it from felling. Lydia also proved to be extremely gifted with anything mechanical and to understand a lot about cars (she knew what to do to build Doomie, while “Bee-gor” Beetlejuice didn't know much, like what a carburetor was). In the series, Lydia attends Miss Shannon's girls' school and is in the seventh grade. Lydia is Beetlejuice's best friend and in the events of the pilot episode, “Critter Sitters,” it is revealed that she and Beetlejuice have known each other for a year already, as they are celebrating their first friendship anniversary. Beetlejuice often calls her "Lyds" or "Babes" rather than "Lydia" although he occasionally uses her full name, such as when he is scared, amused or worried about her; for example: in “Worm Welcome” when Beetlejuice discovered that the “Worm Your Way” deodorant drives the little Sandworms crazy, he was afraid that Lydia would be eaten by the little Sandworm, this, in turn, makes her name scream. Lydia knows how to summon Beetlejuice in her presence or make her way to hers: calling her name out loud three times. (She is occasionally shown to use a longer and more elaborate ritual using the aforementioned four-line chant to take him out of the Netherworld or send him into it, but this doesn't seem to be a necessity.) Unlike Beetlejuice himself, Lydia she is almost universally loved by the inhabitants of Neitherworld, and once won a Neitherworld award for Cutest Mortal to Ever Visit the Netherworld. Having found a kindred spirit in Beetlejuice, Lydia admires Beetlejuice in many ways, mainly admiring her outrageous sense of humor. In one episode, Beetlejuice lent Lydia her funny bone so she could be funny as part of a school show, but without her funny bone Beetlejuice became much more serious and normal; this change in him also disappoints Jacques and Ginger. However, when Beetlejuice takes back his strange bone, he becomes his abnormal self again to Lydia's delight as she hugs him. In “It's A Wonderful Afterlife,” it is revealed that if she had never met Beetlejuice, Lydia would have become an unhappy and social recluse and would not have the confidence to resist Claire Brewster's bullying; indicating that Beetlejuice's friendship and dedication to her is the source of Lydia's self-confidence. Although most of Beetlejuice's antics are motivated by self-amusement rather than malice, she can become genuinely hostile if Lydia is threatened and anyone who can conceivably threaten their relationship. These are the objects of Beetlejuice's deep jealousy and resentment. However, Lydia never shows any romantic interest in anyone other than Prince Vince, and this quickly turns into an outspoken friendship. In the episode "Out of My Mind", Lydia is teleported into Beetlejuice's mind and it is learned that she actually has a working sanctuary for her in her head.
Charles Deetz - Lydia's father, a nervous man who likes quiet and peaceful activities. He also has a terrible dog allergy. One of his favorite hobbies is ornithology, which he seems to be very fond of, and he also enjoys baseball. He is closer to Lydia than Delia is, as they share a love of baseball. He is often the victim of Beetlejuice's constant jokes and mischief. Despite this, Beetlejuice is strangely fond of him, probably because Charles is one of the few people who always falls in love with his jokes, usually when Beetlejuice is in his "royal" guise as "Mr. Beetleman ". Charles's slogan is “Try to relax. Try to relax ”.
Delia Deetz - Charles Deetz's wife and Lydia's stepmother. Delia is an eccentric and carefree yuppie who is also a bit self-centered. She deludes herself that she is both a great cook and a great artist, and she craves new clients; however, both her cooking and her surreal art are not well received and Delia just can't understand why her art is rejected or derided (paradoxically, while her strange art is rejected by the living, it is very popular in the Netherworld). Also, due to her eccentric / saucy / yuppie nature, Delia doesn't get scared easily, unlike her husband; being a surrealist artist, she mistakenly thinks that the scary things she experiences are part of something else. While she talks about wanting to express her creativity in her, she also tries to get Lydia to give up her love of scary things and focus on "normal" cute things (and she doesn't notice her hypocrisy in her. actions of her); this was briefly pointed out in “Critter Sitters” and was the plot of one of the comic's stories (“This is Your Lice,” where Delia hires a hypnotist to make Lydia conform to doing normal, feminine things). While the fact that Delia is Lydia's stepmother is made clear in the film, this fact is never questioned in the cartoon.
Percy - The black domestic cat of the Deetz family, an animal so nervous it makes Charles look relaxed. Considering the amount of torment Beetlejuice subjects Percy to, this isn't really surprising. Although Percy is most of the time a victim of Beetlejuice's pranks, he sometimes manages to take revenge on him in more ways than one.
