Plot Synopsis

Based on Jeff Lemire's comic book series, SWEET TOOTH is a live-action drama series that follows a sheltered hybrid deer-boy named Gus, who unexpectedly befriends a wandering loner named Jepperd. Ten years ago The Great Crumble wreaked havoc on the world and led to the mysterious emergence of hybrids -- babies born part human, part animal. Unsure if hybrids are the cause or result of the virus, many humans fear and hunt them. After a decade of living safely in his secluded forest home, Gus leaves to explore the world around him. After finding Jepperd, the duo embark on an extraordinary adventure across what's left of America in search of answers -- about Gus' origins, Jepperd's past, and the true meaning of home. But their story is full of unexpected allies and enemies, and Gus quickly learns the lush, dangerous world outside the forest is more complex than he ever could have imagined. The entire eight-episode first season of SWEET TOOTH dropped on Netflix on Friday, June 4, 2021.

On Thursday, April 27, 2023, Netflix released the entire eight-episode season of SWEET TOOTH. As a deadly new wave of the Sick bears down, Gus and a band of fellow hybrids are held prisoner by General Abbot and the Last Men. Looking to consolidate power by finding a cure, Abbot uses the children as fodder for the experiments of captive Dr. Aditya Singh, who's racing to save his infected wife Rani. To protect his friends, Gus agrees to help Dr. Singh, beginning a dark journey into his origins and his mother Birdie's role in the events leading up to The Great Crumble. Outside the Preserve, Tommy Jepperd and Aimee Eden team up to break the hybrids free, a partnership that will be tested as Jepperd's secrets come to light. As the revelations of the past threaten the possibility of redemption in the present, Gus and his found family find themselves on a collision course with Abbot and the evil forces that look to wipe them out once and for all.
