Anyone Else Get A 'Drop Dead Fred' Feeling?


Am I the only one who gets the feeling that 'Drop Dead Fred' may have taken a little inspiration from the animated Beetlejuice series, like if we'd ever gotten a Drop Dead Fred animated series set before the Jack-in-the-Box was taped shut it would sort of play out like this?

(Caution spoilers for both may appear in this discussion!)

I've never heard of Drop Dead Fred... And when you say Jack-In-The-Box just after mentioning the Beetlejuice cartoon, I tend to think of the Jack-In-The-Box prison in Neither-Neither Land, where Snugglejuice was created by Little Miss Warden and Billy Club (my two favorite villains of this series since they created Snuggles and I actually love him).

I always assumed that Drop Dead Fred was the Freddy Krueger of day dreams
