Angels of Jarm is a British preschool show that aired on Channel 5's Milkshake! from 2007-2009. The show continued to run on syndication until 2017. The show focuses on a group of angels named Ellie, Rafe, Mick and Gabrielle who help solve various problems in Jarm.
In 2024, the show started to gain an ironic fandom online, in a similar manner to Cory in the House, where the show is satirically referred to as an anime.
Why This Show, Uhh, We Mean Anime, Is Angellic
- It was the world's first religious show for children of preschool age.
- The characters are highly likeable in the show.
- Even for the standards of a Milkshake! show, the animation is really well done.
- Very good morals: the point of the show is to give morals. Here's some examples below:
- The Star of David is still a star, even if it's a religious symbol. (in the episode Symbols)
- Even if the food is altered because of someone's religion, you can still eat it. (in the episode The Special Meal)
- Sharing makes sense. (in the episode Sharing)
- Make people aware that someone cannot eat because of Ramadan, (in the episode Hungry Ephraim)
- The intro and credits are very well made.
- Unlike other Impossible Television shows, this is the first one that was designed to teach religions to children.
- Most of the episodes are preserved online for archival purposes. It's completely free to watch as well!
Qualities That Are Not Quite Angellic
- As stated before in WTS,U,WMA,IA#7, the entire series is not available to watch, as most of season 2 is considered lost & haven't been archived online. However, screencaps do exist.
- Depending on your view, the character designs can be a bit badly made.
- Unlike The Beeps, another show created by the same person, the show wasn't released on any home media.
Reception
The show has a 5.5 rating on IMDb. It is set to be reverse review bombed soon, because the show can be considered as an ironic meme.
Trivia
- In the episode "Sharing", the intro of Audrey and Friends can be seen playing on the TV. This was referenced because Angels of Jarm and Audrey and Friends were distributed by the same company.
