"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Cool! Thanks, JZ. I grabbed one dvd for $1, but I'll go back and get the other one next time.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We loved Ruby Gloom.!

It got interestingly ambitious in its later seasons and even had a musical.

Excellent characters, PerkyGoth design and music.

I think I ganked the theme song too.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

If you follow streaming TV for grown-ups, you can see Sarah Gadon, who (exquisitely) voices Ruby, as Grace in Alias Grace on Netflix and as Sadie in 11.22.63 on Hulu. Like apparently every Canadian actor ever, she is mindbogglingly superb.

I'm so behind on all things not animated more small children.

JZ and Hec are, of course, right. Ruby Gloom is adorable. I think I'm enjoying it more than ltc is.

It's surprisingly re-watchable. Which is key with children's programming.

I scored two more Ruby gloom sets at the library bookstore today! I'm not sure who is more excited me or ltc.
