Dawn of the Croods is a 2015 Netflix show by DreamWorks Animation starring the first family, The Croods, detailing their exploits before the events of the movie, when they still lived in the company of other cave people in Aaah! Valley.The show started out being animated in Adobe Flash, but after three episodes, the production team decided that the show would work better in traditional animation. The three flash-animated episodes were released on Netflix as-is, and possibly Out of Order (season 1, episodes 2, 4, and 9), so they stand out within the traditionally-animated episodes.

 Dawn of the Croods / int_18aff462
comment
Artistic License – Biology: The valley residents are shown to subsist mostly on a diet of raw meat and eggs due to their lack of cooking fires. In reality, meat has to be cooked to render the nutrients digestable and also to sterilise the meat. So the valley would be suffering from malnutrition and numerous dietary illnesses if this wasn't a cartoon.

The Cameo: In "It Crushes", the Croods enter a cave of mysterious drawings, one of them depicts Mr. Peabody & Sherman. Shrek has made a few cameos in the series; doodles of him and Donkey appear on a slateboard in "There Will Be Eggs", a mutated pigrat is shown to have his ears in "28 Fleas Later", and a drawing of him wielding a spiked club glaring at a terrified Donkey appears in the "Tunnel of Terror" from the eponymous episode, of which scares Eep, Thunk, Lerk, and Womp away. Oscar from Shark Tale makes a cameo in the episode "Creature from the Crood Lagoon" swimming past Thunk when he is searching for the "Sea Thing" that rescued him in the Watering Hole.

Forgotten Phlebotinum: Multiple episodes are about some new innovation shaking up life in the Valley, only for things to go back to normal next episode. Lampshaded in a later season episode where, crowdsourcing new solutions, Meep suggests they come up with something incredibly useful that they then never use again.

Total Eclipse of the Plot: "Unsolved MysterEep" ends on a cliffhanger as the sun "mysteriously" vanishes from the sky, seemingly being stolen. But since this is actually just a solar eclipse, it's over only a few minutes into "Gran the Unfriendly Ghost".

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Of course the Croods freak out when a solar eclipse happens - everything suddenly went dark during the daytime with no explanation or control, and in Real Life eclipses have been portents of terrible doom for millennia. Even nowadays, they're momentous occasions that people try and get out of work or school to see.

comment
Screams Like a Little Girl: At the beginning of the episode "Grunt Anything", Ugga and Grug investigate a womanly scream coming from the Boor cave. They assume it's Meep, but they eventually find out that Snoot was the one making the scream because of a loose jackrobat. This helps higlight Snoot's cowardliness and sets off the episode's conflict.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 Dawn of the Croods / int_4a3e547f
comment
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: In two episodes, a character finishes the episode by speaking directly to the viewers and someone asking who are they talking to. Then it is shown that the character was apparently addressing some Liyotes, only they are just as confused as the cast. Lerk learns the "truths of the universe", including the fact that she is a cartoon character. In a later episode, Thunk states that their lives should not be this absurd, it's like a bunch of people far in the future are making up crazy stuff. The seasons are used as the major unit of long-term time measurement by the cavemen, so there are plenty of statements about the seasons that can be interpreted as referring to both the unit of time as well as seasons of the show.

Reports of My Death Were Greatly Exaggerated
 Dawn of the Croods / int_5501256b
comment
Reports of My Death Were Greatly Exaggerated: In "Night of the Living Croods", after being kept up all night by howling Liyotes, the exhausted Croods decide to invent the nap. However, the concept of a nap is so new and foreign to cavemen that when people see them lying down with their eyes closed during the daytime, the first assumption is that they are dead. The first episode has the kids have a free day because their teacher got eaten. The next episode it was revealed he was rescued off screen. In "Gran the Unfriendly Ghost", after disregarding Gran's advice about eclipses, she decides to pretend to be eaten by wild liyotes to make the Croods feel guilty.

She even gives it to Ugga as a sign of her acknowledging Ugga as the new lead hunter, revealing that her eye underneath is actually fine. At one point she is seen having to move her good eye out of the way first in order to make room for her amber stone.

Literal Metaphor: A large chunk of the humor comes from making these jokes based on the fact that it is justified since this is the first time they have experienced these things. Such as the "in crowd" being literally a particular group of people surrounded by other people to protect them from predators and when the series ended on a cliffhanger, Grug is seen hanging from a cliff.

comment
Doomed by Canon: Because of this being a prequel to the movie, this is naturally occurring. The Croods are the only family around in the movie, all other families having been killed off. Season 1's ending loses its impact because Grug would have to have survived in order to make it to the movie. Not to mention how short the eclipse can last. Same applies to Season 2. It ends with them seemingly being eaten, but considering the events of the movie are still canon... The series finale leads one to believe that this will be invoked, as it involves a meteor about to destroy Ahhh! Valley. Everyone manages to stop the meteor however, and Ahhh! Valley falls apart for unrelated reasons, all the cavemen simply ending scattered by the beginning of the movie rather than implicitly dead. Lerk even manages to find Eep again after The End. Strangely, she doesn't appear in the second movie.

Cliffhanger: Season 1 ends with the Croods freaking out over an eclipse and Grug literally hanging from a cliff. Season 2 ends with Ahhh! Valley in danger of being taken over by the smooth-talking Broods. Season 3 ends with The Crood family framed by Gurg, landing them all in prison and leaving only Gran and Sandy still free.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: Eep's Egg Toss team is named Liyote Uglies. Grug: Leave it to my daughter to come up with a safe way to walk to the moon, one small step at a time. In "A Spoonful of Soo-gar", the music playing while the Croods were chased by a swarm of bees is similar to "Flight of the Bumblebee". The episode title may be a reference to the song from Mary Poppins.

comment
Flintstone Theming: Just about every modern concept in the show has an alternate etymology that happens to sound like what the original word is. Some examples include: Grug gets exhausted with Aaah! Valley and decides to take the family away from it for a break, which he describes as Vacating the home and Shunning it: Vacate-Shun/Vacation. Grug has the valley get together at a place to discuss valley affairs, which he calls a Meet-Thing/Meeting. When everyone slacking off all the time causes them to become too weak to defend themselves, Grug decides to compromise and allow a maxmium of two days to slack off because any more would make everyone weak. He calls it the Weakened/Weekend so people remember this.

Call-Forward: In "Gorgey Girl", Eep starts a long distance relationship with a "pit pal" (pen pal). Said pal is revealed to be Guy. When Grug is temporarily the valley's problem solver, he hits himself in the head with a rock to "activate ideas". Eep making binoculars with her hands is later done in the movie by Grug. Squawk catching a rock thrown at him by Grug is exactly like the scene later repeated in the movie with the Mawcarnivore.

My Brain Is Big: Invoked and averted in the episode "The Crood Who Knew too Much", where Grug winds up temporarily taking over the role of valley problem solver. The other valley inhabitants think his newly-swollen cranium means he has the largest brain around, qualifying him to fix everyone's issues. Unfortunately for them, he's just suffering from a spider-ant bite to the head, and his advice doesn't really work out.

Scary Stinging Swarm
 Dawn of the Croods / int_ebfaf704
comment
Scary Stinging Swarm: Happens constantly to multiple characters. In "A Spoonful of Soo-Gar," the whole tribe is on the run from a huge swarm of bees, though nobody gets stung. In "It Crushes," Eep accdenally crashes into a beehive, shrieking in pain. She then intentionally lets herself be stung as an attempt to drown out her feelings of love for her crush. In "It Takes Ahhh! Valley Part 2," the Croods launch a beehive at a dinosaur in an unsuccessful attempt to ward it off. In "Slak Attack," One-Eyed Amber recommends shoving beehives into the clothes of lazy teenagers as a way of motivating them, then proceeds to demonstrate by cramming one down her own loincloth. In "A Gran Adventure," Ugga is stung badly by swarms of bees Gran has employed as booby traps to safeguard her treasure. In "Gorgey Girl," a male caveman is stung by bees as part of a lesson being taught to Eep's class. When the teacher realizes Eep isn't paying attention, he throws a hive at her as well.
