Spliced is a Flash animated Canadian TV series created by Simon Racioppa and Richard Elliott that first premiered on Qubo in September 19, 2009. And it ended in March 13, 2010.
Plot
Spliced is a modern take of H. G. Wells' 1896 science-fiction fantasy, The Island of Doctor Moreau. Spliced marginally distorts Wells' characters in this modern twist by making the mutants the result of genetic experiments created by recombinant DNA rather than Wells' original vivisection process.
Why It’s No Ordinary Island (No need to say it Twice)
- Very beautiful Flash animation.
- Decent character designs.
- The voice acting in this series looks very well-done and creative.
- Entree (The cow-pig-chicken guy) may be unlikable, but he's very funny.
- The show managed to be extremely creative with the plots and humor into one season.
- The series can have lots of funny episodes such as: One Joe Wingus, Stomach on Strike, and Pork Chop.
- Some jokes in this series can be funny, especially in the episodes mentioned in WIR#6.
- Very admirable background designs.
- The theme song and the title card music in this show sounds very catchy that gives you earworms.
- The time cards sometimes break the 4th wall.

- Sharing.
- Playing games right.
- Accepting people who are different.
- Not destroying people's neighborhoods.
- We shouldn't be racist.

Bad Qualities

- It can also have bad episodes such as: Yetis Don't Care About Nothin', Mole-sters in the Mist, Stuck Together, etc.
- The theme song can also sound very annoying to listen.
- ”Poosh and The Quest for the Blargey Parble” is a good episode, but isn’t a good way to end the show.
