Plot Synopsis

Created and executive produced by JJ Villard, JJ VILLARD'S FAIRY TALES is a quarter-hour animated series that takes a twisted look at classic fairy tales from the Brothers Grimm, like Cinderella and Snow White. The charm and cuteness of the original stories remain, but now they've been updated and packaged into a ball of raw, visceral, gross weirdness.

Adult Swim debuted a sneak peek of the series' April Fools lineup, late night Tuesday, March 31, 2020 (early morning Wednesday, April 1, 2020) at 2:30am ET/PT. In this special preview, "The Goldilox Massacre," a little girl breaks into a house illegally, so the home's owners try to kill her.

Five weeks later, JJ VILLARD'S FAIRY TALES returned for its official series premiere late night Sunday, May 10, 2020 (early morning Monday May 11, 2020) at 12:15am ET/PT on Adult Swim. In the series opener, "Boypunzel," a long-haired boy is trapped in a tower by a witch.
