"Raised By Wolves" (2013-2016) is a British comedy series from writer Caitlin Moran and her sister Caroline Moran, focusing on a large and eccentric homeschooled family from Wolverhampton in the British Midlands, led by single mother Della. It is based on the experiences of the two Moran sisters, with the character of Germaine acting as an Expy for Caitlin and Aretha standing in for Caroline.Following the broadcast of a pilot episode in late 2013, two series aired on Britain's Channel 4 between 2015 and 2016, and were praised for their sympathetic depiction of working-class British women.Though it was reportedly Channel 4's second highest rating program of 2015 and won the prestigious Rose d'Or for Best Sitcom in 2016, the network revealed in August 2016 that they did not plan to renew the show.The Moran sisters subsequently mounted a crowdfunding campaign to produce a final episode or series to tie up loose ends, which was not successful in meeting its goal. In December 2016, Caitlin Moran described the show as 'tragically axed', suggesting that no further efforts will be made to turn it into an Uncancelled series.An American adaptation to be written by Diablo Cody had already been announced at the time of the British version's cancellation, and is expected to appear on ABC.The main characters include: Della, a badass Action Mom who homeschools her brood of six children with a mixture of tough love and Russell Crowe films Grampy, Della's father and a loveable stoner Germaine, a hypersexual - and just plain hyper - misfit with an outlandish taste in clothes and a vivid imagination Aretha, Germaine's polar opposite, a misanthropic intellectual and Black Sheep of the family Yoko, the family's Cowardly Lion, who is scared of her mother, most of her siblings, and nearly everything else.For the unrelated science fiction series on HBO Max, see Raised by Wolves (2020). | |

Hippie Parents | |
| Raised by Wolves (2013) / int_16b734e7 | comment |
Hippie Parents: Grampy might be a tad vague because he's a Scatterbrained Senior, but it’s probably just because he's a bit high all the time. Averted with Della who, though she homeschools her children, maintains her own vegetable garden and favours foraging over supermarket shopping, is definitely no Granola Girl. | |

Hands-Off Parenting: Della, to a large extent. Not that she's a neglectful mother - she's just happy to let her kids make their own mistakes. Part of the meaning of the title (the other part being a pun on Wolverhampton, where the series is set). | |

Wrong Genre Savvy | |
| Raised by Wolves (2013) / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: Germaine sees herself as a cross between Liz Taylor and Audrey Hepburn, and the star of her own sexy teen comedy. Instead, her love interest refers to her as The Gruffalo, and she's constantly annoyed at how real life refuses to conform to what she's seen in her favourite movies. | |
