Review: Fables

October 28, 2003 - 1:36am — Joey

The members of fairy tales have been evicted from the homes, and now live in New York city. They have their own government, their own powers, and they live among the humans without being noticed. Things go wrong when Rose Red is murdered, and it's up to the Wolf (as in Big, Bad) to determine who did it.

Recommended to older teens and adults. There's one sex scene (a sheet covers the nudity)and some references to sex.

Love "Fables" ...

The series has gotten grittier as it goes along (the "Animal Farm" arc was way violent, with a lot of profanity and a hint of bestiality), but it is excellent. Definitely very witty and Sondheimesque (think "Into the Woods"), with noirish tints.
