Interesting facts

  • Based on: The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy

Underfist: Halloween Bash is an American animated spin-off special of The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. It originally aired on Cartoon Network on October 12, 2008. The special was going to be the setup for a new series spin-off of Grim & Evil, but Maxwell Atoms's contract with Cartoon Network expired before he moved to Disney Channel for the TV series Fish Hooks, and the special was ultimately the finale of the Grim & Evil franchise.

Production

Maxwell Atoms started production on Underfist shortly after he finished with The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. The special was finished several months before it aired, but as it was a Halloween special, it was delayed until October. Cartoon Network did not pay for a permanent crew for a single film, so much of the work was done freelance or by Atoms himself. The film also used a different overseas animation crew at Digital eMation.

The special did not become a series due to the fact that Stuart Snyder, Cartoon Network's president at the time, chose to focus on new ideas, which included live-action. This move resulted in long-time creators for the network such as Atoms, Mr. Warburton and Craig McCracken leaving the network.
