Sweet Tooth is an American fantasy-drama series created by Jim Mickle, based on the comic book series of the same name by Jeff Lemire. It is produced by Warner Bros. and Robert Downey Jr. (through his production company, Team Downey), and streamed on Netflix, making it the first series on the service to be based on a DC Comics property.Ten years ago, "The Great Crumble" wreaked havoc on the world and led to the mysterious emergence of hybrid babies born part human, part animal. Unsure if hybrids are the cause or result of the virus, many humans fear and hunt them. After a decade of living safely in his secluded forest home, a sheltered hybrid deer-boy named Gus (Christian Convery) unexpectedly befriends a wandering loner named Jepperd (Nonso Anozie). Together they set out on an extraordinary adventure across what is left of America in search of answers—about Gus' origins, Jepperd's past, and the true meaning of home. But their story is full of unexpected allies and enemies, and Gus quickly learns the lush, dangerous world outside the forest is more complex than he ever could have imagined.The series also stars Adeel Akhtar, Stefanie LaVie Owen, Dania Ramirez, Aliza Vellani, and Will Forte, with James Brolin as the voice of the narrator.The first season premiered on June 4, 2021, while the second premiered on April 27, 2023. The series has also been renewed for a third and final season. | |

Heroic BSoD | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_1439161f | comment |
Heroic BSoD: Happens to Gus after he finds out his whole life, which his "pubba" told him, was a lie. He was a government experiment as the first of the hybrid children created and his parents aren't his biological parents as his father lead him to believe. Rather, they were random people who adopted him after he was created and about to be taken away by the government for experimentation purposes. | |

You Can Talk? | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_2ad3eb22 | comment |
You Can Talk?: All hybrid children are known to the public as mute with no ability to speak. However, it's possible this is due to a simple lack of love and deprivation of a positive learning environment. Both Gus and Wendy can speak thanks to their parents. Even Bobby is able to talk in broken English to Wendy and Aimee after being taken in by them later on. Hence, whenever Gus meets someone who realizes he's a hybrid, they assume he's mute. When he begins to talk, they're stunned and have this reaction. | |

Ax-Crazy | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_2d4fa515 | comment |
The Animal Army in the comic was originally a bloodthirsty cult led by the Ax-Crazy Glebhelm, who nearly kills Gus until he was rescued by Jepperd. The show instead depicts them as being more of a ragtag group of teens who are dedicated to protecting Hybrids. They were also led by the far less bloodthirsty Bear (until she was betrayed by Tiger and the army kicked her out), who becomes an ally to Gus and Jepperd. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Abbot got the book he needed from Dr. Bell. He could have left her alone; which was the only thing she wanted. Yet he still has her killed. All for stopping her experiments on the hybrids to create a cure (which has been a dead-end goal for years despite her best efforts) and faking a cancer diagnosis so she had an excuse to leave her work-life behind to live in peaceful isolation. | |

Pubba is a loving father who sheltered Gus out of fear of the outside world harming him, (not unjustified given the Last Men and general bigoted people). Whereas in the comic, he is a religious fanatic doing it because of delusions that Gus is a God. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Due to the Lighter and Softer tone, some morally dubious characters in the comic are portrayed in a better light. Their negative traits and storylines have been toned down or changed. Downplayed with Jepperd, while he's still rough around the edges and his backstory is kept intact, the show did tweak his character. One major change was, in the comic, Jepperd betrays Gus to the Last Men with the promise of seeing his wife again, which would later turn out he specifically wanted to be given his dead wife's body. In the show, he doesn't betray Gus to the Last Men; he gets shot by them instead, allowing them to take Gus as Jepperd is too wounded to intervene. He also warms up to Gus and becomes a father figure to him far quicker compared to the comic. The Animal Army in the comic was originally a bloodthirsty cult led by the Ax-Crazy Glebhelm, who nearly kills Gus until he was rescued by Jepperd. The show instead depicts them as being more of a ragtag group of teens who are dedicated to protecting Hybrids.

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The season one finale leans heavily towards bitter with a small dose of hope. Gus, Wendy, Bobby, and the other hybrid children have been captured by The Last Men for experimentation purposes. Jepperd is wounded (alive, but Gus doesn't know that). Adithya and Rani are also in the hands of The Last Men and the former is forced to experiment on the hybrids to keep his Sick wife safe. However, Aimee has found Jepperd and is tending to him as she plans to get the imprisoned children back, Bear has been able to reach Birdie, and the hybrid children share a Group Hug in their prison chamber and find some measure of comfort in each other. Season two ends on a generally happier note with most of the children saved, Becky finding her sister and, together with Gus and Big Man, they set out to find Birdie. Aimee and the animal army however died wiping out The Last Men. | |

Would Hurt a Child | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_479d4e5a | comment |
Would Hurt a Child: The Last Men Poachers don't care that the hybrids are mere children - they view them as no different from animals. They even offer money in exchange for the dismembered animal parts of caught kids as a keepsake. Dr. Bell experimented on hybrids in an attempt to find a cure. This unsettles Adithya greatly and Dr. Bell also admits she's "done things [she's] not proud of" but it was all in the name of humanity's survival. In episode 8, Adithya when the Last Men blackmail him with his wife and force him to experiment on the captured hybrid kids. | |

Happily Adopted: Aimee has spent almost a decade taking care of a pig hybrid girl she found at her doorstep, even lovingly nicknaming her Pigtail. She would later adopt a groundhog boy named Bobby that said daughter befriended in secret and converted the zoo to a hybrid preserve for hybrid kids seeking refuge. In the season 1 finale, Gus is revealed to have been this. His father, Richard, adopted him when the scientist Birdie broke the infant Gus out of the guarded lab just before the government could seize him for experimentation purposes. Richard was given Gus for safe-keeping by her and he fled into the wilderness to keep the military from obtaining him. | |

Humans Are the Real Monsters | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_4ac8b81f | comment |
Humans Are the Real Monsters: Zip-Zagged. While there are good and kind humans in the show and most of them are simply trying to get by in the Crapsack World, a good amount of characters are cruel and bigoted towards the hybrids and have little issue with killing if it means getting rid of the Sick (no matter who the victim is). Several characters such as Pubba, Bear, Aimee, and Dr. Bell also seem to have this viewpoint regarding humanity; even the latter three feel that the hybrids are ultimately better than the human race. | |

Kill It with Fire: Whenever the community finds out someone has the Sick, they restrain the infected person/people, wrap them in cellophane wrap, bind them to a chair, and burn their house down with the infected party inside. They do this to Doug after realizing he's infected while at his house party and nearly do the same to Adithya and Rani when finding out she's Sick as well. However, the Last Men "save" them in order to find important documents in the house and to question them. | |

Oh, Crap!: Rani and Adithya have this reaction when they notice water leaking from the freezer (where they hid Nancie's corpse), because it means that the body they're trying to hide has likely been discovered.

Children's Covert Coterie | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_b8ac17e5 | comment |
Children's Covert Coterie: The Animal Army is a society of runaway kids and teenagers devoted to protecting Hybrids at all coasts. Living apart from the rest of post-apocalyptic society in an abandoned amusement park, they mimic and name themselves for animals in the belief that they are superior to humans (hence why Hybrids are treated with such reverence). Though they spend a good deal of their time indulging in harmless fun, they are very effective at staging raids on Last Men convoys and have no moral qualms about executing poachers. Their leader, Bear, is naturally an ally to Gus and after being deposed and replaced by Tiger, she becomes a permanent travelling companion alongside Jepperd. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: While still dark, the series takes a more optimistic fairy tale approach to the subject matter, whereas the comic was distinctly dystopian. Several characters are also made to be far more sympathetic and likable compared to the comic and many of the darker aspects of the comic have either been toned down or adapted out entirely. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure: The only reason why Bear delays Jepperd's execution is because Gus begs her to spare him, and he was also a prisoner of the poachers. She calls it off entirely when Gus tells her that carrying on with the execution would make her not that different from the poachers. If only if the army followed suit... | |

Mama Bear: Aimee is fiercely protective of Wendy and her other adopted hybrid children, even creating the Preserve so all hybrid children have a safe haven to flee to in the otherwise bigoted world. When she realized the Last Men have found them, she sent her adopted children off on their own in order to stay behind and keep the men distracted for as long as she could to buy the kids time to escape. In the season 1 finale, after learning Wendy, Bobby, and other hybrid kids were taken, she's more than ready to fight. When the wounded Jepperd wakes up after being shot, the first thing she tells him is "Rest now. Tomorrow, we're going to save our children.” | |

Morality Pet: Gus is this to both Jeppard and Bear. They may bicker about everything else, but they are willing to put aside their differences for Gus' well-being. | |

Composite Character | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Aimee is one between Lucy and Wendy's unnamed mother from the comic (who is only shown in flashbacks). Bear replaces Glebhelm (who is absent from the series) as the founder and (former) leader of the Animal Army and her real name (Becky), is taken from a character who is also absent from the series. | |

Anger Born of Worry | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_f4b1129f | comment |
Anger Born of Worry: When Gus steps beyond the fence in the first episode out of simple curiosity, his father drags him back inside and yells at him. Nothing bad happened and Gus never actually left as he got scared and turned back. However, his father is shown to be Properly Paranoid as brutal hybrid poachers exist just outside the fence and most of the world wants to see hybrid children dead and view them as subhuman. | |

Motherly Scientist | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_f59bfc23 | comment |
Motherly Scientist: The scientist Birdie helped create Gus as the first hybrid child. While the government saw the infant as a mere lab experiment, she grew to love Gus as her own child. (In fact, her Establishing Character Moment was her loudly protesting as government officials took Gus away for scheduled transportation.) When he was on the verge of being seized as government property, she enlisted Richard's help to break him out of the heavily guarded building. After freeing him, she clutched the baby to herself in an emotional embrace and promised he would always be safe. Furthermore, the reason she gave Gus to Richard was because the odds of the government thinking to look for him (a "nobody") were extremely low compared to her. | |

Group Hug | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_f9cc3ee0 | comment |
The season one finale leans heavily towards bitter with a small dose of hope. Gus, Wendy, Bobby, and the other hybrid children have been captured by The Last Men for experimentation purposes. Jepperd is wounded (alive, but Gus doesn't know that). Adithya and Rani are also in the hands of The Last Men and the former is forced to experiment on the hybrids to keep his Sick wife safe. However, Aimee has found Jepperd and is tending to him as she plans to get the imprisoned children back, Bear has been able to reach Birdie, and the hybrid children share a Group Hug in their prison chamber and find some measure of comfort in each other. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist | |
| Sweet Tooth / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Dr. Bell experimented on hybrids in an attempt to find a cure. This unsettles Adithya greatly and Dr. Bell also admits she's "done things [she's] not proud of" but it was all in the name of humanity's survival. | |
