lol so we showed Ronan Over the Garden Wall during the week leading up to Halloween. We weren't sure how he'd take to it, and honestly I thought it may be a bit much for him (even just the first episode has some spooky bits that may be scary to a younger kid). But he fucking loved it. He's asked to watch it again multiple times since finishing it, and asked to listen to the soundtrack as well. We're thinking about buying a stuffed bluebird for his Christmas stocking so he can have his own Beatrice (or Beetwiss, as he pronounces it).
Anyway, everytime I watch this show (an annual tradition in fall, usually in October) I discover new interesting things, like how the edges of the frame are always slightly blurred, and the random hints throughout that Greg and Wirt are from a more modern time than the people in the Unknown are, that sort of thing.
