Man. That voice for Grim fits him like a tailor made glove, it’s unbelievably amazing. The Jamaican accent is what gives it such an unexpected yet memorable characteristic touch.
I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that even with the great writing and artstyle, this show wouldn’t have been nearly as popular without Grim’s voice.
I like how he complained about the kids breath but immediately tried to protect their innocence. Grim's a good dude, even if he himself doesn't think so
Grim is such a weird character. He has the power of the universe, but he doesn't use it to free himself from Billy and Mandy. He seems to hate them both, but he also cares for them as a responsible adult figure would. Hell, most of the times, Grim shows them more attention than their own parents. Crazy.

This is actually the second Talking Heads reference in the show, the first being Billy waking up from a dream screaming "MORE THAN IT EVER WAS, MORE THAN IT EVER WAS"
This was my favorite show from ages 8-12, my dad even enjoyed it. Now imagine being 10 years old and this is the only image of the grim reaper you have on your mind. You play the sims (the original) and your sim dies and the reaper shows up. I was terrified.

You freaked me out for a moment because I thought I was singing it wrong. But I wasn't. It's water flowing underground. Because the water is under the rocks and stones, and there is water underground.
Grim trying to not insult a chicken in the room but also call Boogie out on his fear: “ what’s the matter Boogie, are ya- are ya- ARE YA-“ *Boogies eyes darting between the chicken and grim, waiting for Grim to slip up and be disrespectful * “Are ya scared like some sorta small tasty bird!?” *edit* everyone, thank you for the 1k+ thumbs! 🤩
So we're just going to act like there are no "thicc" waifus? And please kindly refrain from using anti-Japanophile slurs. In fact, I don't think you're in much of a position to be using that term with a profile picture like that.
Oh my God way deep down I had the kitty cat song stuck in my head. Haven't thought of it for probably over a decade but the second he started singing I knew the words.
The scene where he does the weird chant and says "Mama say mama say as mama kosa!" is even funnier in Swedish, since the Swedish actor says "Mamma se, mamma se, en kossa!", which literally translates to "Mom look, mom look, a cow!" I miss this masterpiece of a show...
i think it was supposed to be a reference to the song wanna be starting something by michael jackson whre he sings that "chant" at the end of the song. i find it funny how they made a completely different joke in swedish

You can tell Grim’s voice actor was having the time of his life doing this part.

Greg attempted a Swedish accent for Grim as a reference to the movie seventh seal but went Jamaican to add a sense of style to proceedings
According to creator Maxwell Atoms, Greg also couldn't do a Swedish accent either. And the rest is history!
And we love him for it
Seventh Seal? That's surprisingly a very highbrow reference. Is that why the plot episode has Grim (Death) play limbo (like chess) with the kids?
He made a good choice
Actually when he tried to do a Swedish accent it sounded more Jamaican and they just went with it because it sounded funnier.
"Well, usually because I get confused."
