I always find it funny when she short circuits from the water and she says "Water, Water, Wa-ah-to!".

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING THIS, I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER SEE IT AGAIN. I've been waiting DECADES to see if the ending was as warped as I remembered, and as usual with this thing, my child brain exaggerated it...but not by much. For some reason I distinctly remember a creepy robotic voice repeating "everythING is FINE now" in a singsong tone over the pool scene and that...definitely isn't present, but the inexplicable cow skull existed. That is so satisfying. ETA: I transposed two scenes, that'll teach me to skip to the end |,D ...can anyone explain the cow skull, was it in the book or something, because let me tell u about nightmares *cough* Sorry, thank you for excellent archival work!

Anyone else find it funny how the dog Spike looks a lot like the RUGRATS dog Spike? (Just missing a spot pretty much.) Just found that funny. Wonder if Nick took inspiration from this Spike, or if it was just a mere coincidence?

He kinda also looks a bit like that dog from one of the Quicktoons/Nick Extra bumpers.

@@kootunesscrewy & ZeniJocasta , I was so Happy that Spike was alive and safe at the end of this episode "Grinny" and reunited with the children. I first saw "Grinny" in June of 1991, at age 11 , then again in May 2020 and earlier today Saturday January 14, 2023 I watched "Grinny" together with my dad , he liked it as well. Anyone see other classic CBS Storybreak episodes on KZbin such as "Arnold of the Ducks" or "How to Eat Fried Worms"

Why wasn't a CBS Storybreak Special made for the Sequel Book to Grinny which was titled "You Remember Me" from Wikipedia it says about this Sequel "In You Remember Me, the same breed of aliens from the previous book, Grinny, return to Earth and make another attempt to take over the planet, this time by inhabiting an attractive television presenter who can apply her mind tricks to many thousands as she presents her TV shows. Once again, she is thwarted by the children. Published 1984."
