Strangers with Candy: Difference between revisions

Of course, seeing as Strangers With Candy is based entirely on [[Spoof Aesop|Spoof Aesops]], Jerri's intentions of leaving her twisted, drug-addled past behind her never come to fruition. In her own words: "Oh, I'm still doin' the wrong things, but at least I'm doing them the right way." This mockery of after-school specials focuses less on the students and more on the adults concerned with nothing but their own selfish needs.

 

 

Sample plot: In the first episode, Jerri attempts to befriend a popular girl by supplying her with homemade drugs. The popular girl winds up in a coma, and Jerri spends much of the episode somewhat in guilt. When the girl dies, it seems as though Jerri will finally own up to what she has done-- but Jerri throws a memorial party instead, gaining the popularity she's wanted all along.
