The Baskervilles is a British/Canadian animated series created by Alastair Swinnerton and Nick Martinelli and produced by Cinar in association with Carlton Television and Teletoon. The show lasted for 2 seasons and had a total of 26 episodes between March 10 and December 13, 2000.The show focuses on the Baskerville family, your typical nice quiet middle-class British family made up of the unbearably nice parents Brian and Janet, their goody two-shoes teenage son Darren, and their precocious daughter April, who is anything but sweet. One day, the family are invited by an evil devil-like billionaire named Nicolas Lucifer III (aka "The Boss") to move to his Hell-like theme park known simply Underworld: The Theme Park ("Where Good Is Bad And Bad Is Good"). The Baskervilles eagerly accept the offer, oblivious to the fact that Nicolas intends to turn them bad as part of his realization of Hell. However, little does The Boss know that he's bitten off more than he can chew because not even being in the literal Theme Park Version of Hell with monsters and demons for neighbours can break the cheerful and optimistic spirits of the Baskerville family (or the evilness of their daughter). | |

Straw Vegetarian | |
| The Baskervilles / int_1697f7a0 | comment |
Straw Vegetarian: On one occasion, The Old Man and the city council take over running Underworld from The Boss, and turn it into a nice place to live; going so far as to ban eating meat. However, in their rush to make Underworld a progressive utopia, they pass a law "vegetables have feelings too", which bans eating vegetables. This gives The Boss the justification for arresting them, taking back control, and putting Underworld back to the way it was. | |

Apocalypse Anarchy | |
| The Baskervilles / int_1865f13a | comment |
Apocalypse Anarchy: When Mr. Mad Scientist's computer goes on the fritz, it threatens to destroy Underworld the Theme Park, and everyone goes nuts. The Boss notes the irony that he built the theme park specifically so people could be evil, and it's only with its imminent destruction that it happens. | |

Preppy Name | |
| The Baskervilles / int_39a2d446 | comment |
Preppy Name: Zig-zagged. Although Baskerville as a surname is considered one, its origins being from Boscheville in Normandy, France, the name of this town comes from the Old Northern French elements bochet, which means copse or thicket, and ville, which means town; the family themselves seem middle-class if not rich, but their financial status isn't disclosed. | |

Unexplained Accent: Despite their name, the Frankensteins have Geordie accents. The Draculas are mostly Irish, with the mother being the only Transylvanian. Granted, that could possibly be a riff on Bram Stoker. | |

Status Quo Is God | |
| The Baskervilles / int_a6e8221e | comment |
Status Quo Is God: Nothing changes permanently very often in the show. Even if a character does learn a moral during the episode, such as Nicole Lucifer, a vampire who is a Nice Girl although partially a Lovable Alpha Bitch, having to learn morals about when not to take things too far, or Fangora Dracula, who is a Cultural Rebel and a Nice Girl. Very few changes stick, but the show has a more comedic bent so there is a justified reason the show has it. | |
