Twelve Forever is a Netflix animated series created by Julia Vickerman (Yo Gabba Gabba!, Clarence), with Shadi Petosky (Danger & Eggs) serving as showrunner. Originally a Cartoon Network pilot that premiered online on May 18th, 2015, the show was greenlit as a Netflix production two years later. The series premiered on July 29, 2019.The series follows the adventures of Reggie Abbott (Kelsey Abbott), an imaginative 12-year-old girl. Feeling frustrated with the new challenges she is facing between puberty and the rapid changes in her life, Reggie wishes that she would never have to grow up. This wish comes true thanks to a magic key she creates. It grants her the power to travel to Endless Island, a weird and fantastical world where she doesn't have to face the looming responsibilities and stresses of adulthood. Now she and her friends Todd (Antony Del Rio) and Esther (Jaylen Barron) can visit this magical world as much as they like in order to relax and have fun. But not everyone in this world is benevolent, with the villainous "Butt Witch" (Matt Berry) and other threats wanting nothing more than to cause trouble for Reggie and company.Two months after the series premiered, Shadi Petosky revealed on Twitter that there wouldn't be future seasons, due to the costs of moving to another animation studio, and wanting to move on to do live-action work. While Netflix were not to blame for the cancellation either, the controversy mentioned on the Trivia page that surrounded Julia Vickerman became too great of a risk to renew, and so was Quietly Cancelled.The Netflix series trailer can be seen here.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Twelve Forever / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The way long term effect of the island act on people are similar to drug addiction. Frequent use makes them need to go to the Island, psychologically speaking, and being locked away from it makes Reggie become agitated and depressed as if she was in withdrawn. Long term exposure to the Island also causes Todd and Esther to go nearly insane, and as Elmer shows, even longer term will degrade your psyche and your body.

comment
Can't Take Anything with You: People can go back and forth between Endless, but anything from the real world that gets brought in quickly assimilates to fit in to the weirdness and can’t be brought back once that happens. Reggie frequently uses it to store/hide things her mother would otherwise force her to get rid of. People can get stuck on Endless too, but it takes longer.

Escapism: Reggie, Todd, and Esther are all shown to, on some level, use Endless to escape from their lives. While Todd and Esther tend to use it as a much needed break or breather from their responsibilities, Reggie is almost entirely dependent on Endless to deal with her emotions. It reaches almost G-Rated Drug levels when being away from Endless too long can cause Reggie to become agitated and depressed.

By the time of the episode, he's become a kleptomaniac who barely remembers his past, and his body has been horribly warped by the realm's power.

Fisher Kingdom: Endless seems to be one. People who travel to it instantaneously gain new outfits and even changes to their physical appearance (Todd's skin turns purple, and Esther's hair becomes more geometric in shape). Objects brought to Endless and buried there will also be transformed. And the episode "Spring Break Forever" reveals Endless can change people's minds as well if they stay there long enough...

"Spring Break Forever": A far darker side of Endless Island is revealed when Todd and Esther stay there for five days in a row. Over the course of the week, they slowly start forgetting their lives outside of it — from minor things like their promise to call Reggie to things like the fact Todd has sisters. By the time Reggie goes to get them, they've become rambling, fun-loving wrecks (with Todd apparently suffering from Power Incontinence), and she has to pull them out by force.

And the Adventure Continues: With the series' production ending abruptly, the latest episode ends with the trio managing to defeat the Butt Witch, depowering her back to a smaller than normal form which Big Deal takes away. The three make up and celebrate Todd's birthday back in the real world along with Gwen with the implication Reggie will tell her about Endless when she asks about Reggie's arm. All the while Reggie's key glows, causing a flash to appear in the ocean near Endless Island. What it is (a new key, an island, another newcomer, etc) is left up to the imagination.

Adaptational Angst Upgrade: In the pilot, Reggie proudly used the nickname Twelve. In the series, she used to be known as Eleven to the denizens of Endless because that's what was on her suit. It changing its number to match her new age, and her nickname along with it, is a reminder to her of the anxiety over growing up that's the running theme of the series.

Emotional Powers: Mixed with Wild Magic. When creating new people/creatures on the Island, your temperament at the time plays a factor in whether the new creature will be benevolent/peaceful or destructive. Reggie throwing her mom's label maker in anger causes it to grow into a giant monster when it lands in a pool, but her toys getting buried as a way to protect them renders them alive and larger than before, but peaceful.

World of Chaos: Endless seems inviting but one of the darker implications of its existence is its seeming defiance of order. When the trio attempts to bring some semblance of rationality to it in "Endless Forever", Endless seems to grow increasingly chaotic in response to their attempts to make sense of it, culminating in a strange being who shows up to eat them for no apparent reason other than their curiosity.

By the time Reggie goes to get them, they've become rambling, fun-loving wrecks (with Todd apparently suffering from Power Incontinence), and she has to pull them out by force. "Stranger Forever": The revelations from "Spring Break Forever" are expanded on thanks to the arrival of Elmer, a kid who chose to live forever inside of the Endless Island realm. By the time of the episode, he's become a kleptomaniac who barely remembers his past, and his body has been horribly warped by the realm's power. "Todd Forever": The tensions between the trio reach a boiling point, and they get into a serious fight — which gives the Butt Witch all the power she needs to start her conquest of Endless Island.

Vomit Indiscretion Shot: Played with in that it only happens when Flaps barfs out weapons or someone barfs out a worm; actually vomiting gets a Vomit Discretion Shot instead.

comment
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: When Reggie refuses to play the dating game, Esther implies it's because she's scared she'll lose. Reggie joins in, blowing off her day with Brown Roger and dumping him on Todd, which neither like. This leads to the Butt Witch corrupting Brown Roger, which Reggie blames Todd for. The ensuing argument results in Todd barfing up the first worm and the Butt Witch discovers what happens when she consumes said worm.

Eldritch Location
 Twelve Forever / int_9bee1a7f
comment
Eldritch Location: Endless Island. At first, it seems to be a whimsical Magic Land where our main characters go to just have fun, but dark and troubling things are revealed about the land over the course of the series. Most notably, the longer you stay on Endless Island without going back to the real world, the more and more you forget about whatever life you had before going there, and over time your body starts to change in increasingly strange ways. It doesn't help that the passage of time doesn't even exist on the island itself, meaning the characters don't get any sleep while staying there.

comment
Foreshadowing: When we're first introduced to Guy Pleasant, Reggie is just as interested in him as every other girl on the Island, but unlike the others, it's not because of how handsome he is (she's more interested in the fact that he's half-dog). This ends up serving as an early sign of her sexual preferences. Also, the fact that there are three gay characters among her Endless creations.

Shout-Out
 Twelve Forever / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: "Dirk's Got Problems," the show the gang watches instead of going to the carnival, has characters bearing a resemblance to the protagonists of The Big Bang Theory down to a nonsensical catchphrase. The font used for the show is also similar to the font Nickelodeon uses. When Manguin embraces his slovenly side, he starts to look more like Guy Fieri. A Booberry-type ghost can be seen on a cereal box in the Abbott household, and it's modeled after the "When you X just right" meme. The dating board game where players use a phone to find a boyfriend that Esther gets the whole gang to play in "Brown Roger Forever" is pretty much just the real game "Dream Phone" in all but name. The giant yo-yoing hand on Endless Island is modeled after Principal Skinner's hand. Gwen's t-shirt is identical to the one worn by Danny Fenton. David Bowie expy Guy Pleasant is a dog-centaur; Bowie appeared as a half-human, half dog creature on the album cover of "Diamond Dogs". The face of the monster-sized Butt Witch looks like that of Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky. Reggie recites words while the key that is in her necklace spins and activates its powers, much like another well known Magical Girl did in the 90s, Cardcaptor Sakura. Reggie and Dustin's childhood tapes seem reminiscent of Faye's childhood tapes in Cowboy Bebop episode 18. In 'Birthday Forever', the way Reggie lands on her flamingo tricycle in Endless is a reference to the motorcycle slide in the anime film AKIRA. In the episode 'Guy Pleasant Forever', there's a Daft Punk poster on the window in the record store shown in the opening scene. "Babysitting Forever" features Serial Numbers Filed Off versions of Foxtrot, Dick Tracy, and Garfield, while Ogden prefers to watch a Mister Rogers' Neighborhood parody called Uncle Ben's Cottage.

Creating Life: Anything buried on Endless Island is brought to life, in a form dependent on how the person who buried it felt at the time. For example, the Butt Witch is created/awoken when a bunch of puberty books that Reggie wants to get rid of are tossed into the island's volcano.

Reasonable Authority Figure: One of Reggie’s teachers, a nervous man, sees Reggie had drawn on her school locker and forced her to clean it. While Reggie is upset, it’s clear he did so because he didn’t want Reggie to get in trouble for defacing school property and later, gave her a whiteboard to draw on instead.
