It is about a girl who makes fiends. They are fiendish. Watch the web episodes first, as they predate the television episodes.

That's an interesting series, if a little childish. ;)
-
Not funny, not interesting, not graphically impressive, not original, not for adults and nor for kids.
With reasons.
I see barely any humour, things are predictable, graphics... yeah, there have been loads of shows with two little girls not liking each other (though the huge pets are new), it's too kiddy-like aaaaand there are hateful things in there not good for kids.
I think I made my opinion clear, I might also just be cranky 'cause I'm rather very sick, but that'll pass.
-
My opinion, but I didn't want to hurt his feelings. ^-^

Awww. Ok. :'( (http://www.roflcat.com/images/cats/emo.jpg)
Have people already seen StrongBad Emails (http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail.html), then?
Or if you don't like those, tell me what you do like, and I can watch that.

CCC City (http://www.newgrounds.com/collection/ccccity.html) stuff by Vinnie Veritas. There is something I love about his world design, clean but detailed style and use of cool camera effects, rapid cuts and distortion to create something that really zips. Also the sense of narrative in stuff like Hoy Te Amo and Eres Venero is amazingly strong despite the lack of any kind of dialog.
There She Is (http://sambakza.newgrounds.com/flash/) by SamBakZa is also pretty good. Although some people have been pretty critical of it's change of tone in one of the later episodes.
Nightmare City (http://clairvoyanceteam.newgrounds.com/) by Clairvoyance team is pretty good. I can't say the design really grabs me, but some of the action is really flashy looking.

Hah, the Strongbad mail are awesome, seen them before, and I've also seen the There She Is animations, also very nice.
Haven't seen the other two, might do so some time, the animations seem to be good. =o
And Zeke, I WAS in a bad mood, but my opinion didn't change. None the less, it's just an opinion of someone, there are loads of things I don't like, just like every other person. ^^
Then to show what I like:
Blockhead (http://www.newgrounds.com/collection/blockhead.html) - A series I enjoyed a lot, a lot of randomness and it doesn't take too much brain to understand the humour. =p (does not mean that applies to me, tyvm)
----------
Mastermind (http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/420990) - From the same creator, also random and stuff. This series also have games accompanied with it, ones I also enjoy.
----------
Brackenwood (http://www.newgrounds.com/collection/brackenwood.html) - Who doesn't know Bitey?
----------
The Composer (http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/400974) - I also assume that everyone has seen this one, even though not a series, an animation to be seen and appreciated by all.
And there are probably some more... Though, to come back on what I don't like, I personally think the "<insert first word of game here> Awesome" series should be banned from Newgrounds.
Oh, and as you noticed, I don't know anything related to flash series outside of Newgrounds. 8D
-
Blockhead is a little -too- random for me. Brackenwood is awesome, but the later ones lag on my computer.
-
The composser is beautiful, it's a pity that it lags on your computer titch :(
-
Composer doesn't. Waterlollies does though.
-
I STILL have the music of The Yuyu on my mp4. xD
And what I like so much about Blockhead is, is that they didn't add randomNESS to the series, but a character which is pure random.
Which, in a way, is very original.

Channel Frederator on YouTube tends to yield some unique and creative submissions. Unfortunately it also has some childish and unfunny ones too.
