Send in the clowns!

Except, maybe don’t, because clowns are terrifying and at least 1/4 demon.

But that’s just the way we like it here at Jem Girls, and this week we are diving deep into the fourth circle of hell (the clown circle) to bring you an episode dedicated to “The Little Clowns of Happy Town.”

Among the many awful animated works to come out of the 80s, this particular cartoon is notable for forgoing the usual cartoon model of “entertaining children.” Instead, “The Little Clowns of Happy Town” goes full horror, inspiring terror in all viewers, regardless of age, because, as we all know, clowns are terrifying. It’s also nonsensical and deals with the possibility of clowns being their own sub-species of humanity, so that’s some fear-filling-fun, too.

Will this show keep you up at night with dancing images of grinning, homicidal clowns popping into your brain every time you close your eyes? Almost definitely. Does it make for a hilarious (if no disconcerting) discussion? Eh, kinda.

Either way, let us bear the brunt of this weaponized form of clown propaganda (brought to you by Q5 Corporation!) so you can enjoy our always amusing musings.

No clanimals were harmed in the making of this episode.
