CliffSide | Cartoon Series Pilot

Monsters and shootouts abound in this animated western comedy following an overconfident kid, his apathetic partner, and a spider-girl with some serious boundary issues. What will it take to save CliffSide from some rather unconventional evil in the surrounding cliffs, and will our hero ever actually learn anything?

Episode 1 - "Pilot"
Getting tangled up with an excitable spider-monster named Cordie who suffers from a validation complex to rival his own, Waylon quickly learns his bold gunslinger talk leads to horrifying actions when put into practice by his new super-fan. Now he’s got some explaining to do and a western standoff or two to perform if he hopes to scrape by without learning anything from this whole ordeal.

This dude just straight up convinced death itself to not kill him by letting it become a sheriff.
*Speech 100*

[zenogias]

The fact that this hasn't been picked up as a series is a literal crime against humanity.

[kyps]

8:55 According to science, some types of spiders poke on their mate's eyes to tell them that they want to lay eggs with them, so yeah... Cordie was actually telling him that she wanted to have babies with him, on that place...

I’ve known about cliffside for a couple years at this point but I just keep coming back to it and rewatching it. Something about its comedic timing, slightly supernatural setting, and the amazing character that is Cordy keeps the pilot fresh, exciting, and hilarious even with the amount of times I’ve rewatched it.

PLEASE SOMEONE PICK THIS UP I NEED MORE

"This spider lady tried to eat me!"

"I like your hat."

[erissfootworshipper]

I believe I speak for most of us when I say we want a series of this.

[bluryfever]

The main character is just
**when you put all your points into charisma**

[Girlandsilly]

Now that murder drone is over we need this as a show

[Randomyoutuber-]

An idiot savant outlaw
An utterly deadpan sidekick
And an overly attached spider girl.

I’m sold.

[DementedDuskull]

You can see a lot of this pilot's DNA in Murder Drones, from the twisted grins, to the dangerous to helpful secondary character, to the offbeat tone that is only like 40% serious.

[mecha]

"I once shot a man fer lookin' at me wrong, then i shot 'em again for dyin'!"

Single greatest wild west line in history

[Hellion_Dragons]

Anyone here after watching the 8 ep of MD?

[baronbonk]

"i once shot a man for lookin at me, then i shot him again for dying"
and
"oh god she's gone southern"
are two quotes that i've used almost on a daily basis ever since i saw this three years ago

[NumberWeirdo]

"Don't mind me just crossing the street- woop there I go"

My life in a nutshell

[spiritsushi]

when you gotta save the world but you only leveled charisma

[RamenONoodles]

Since Liam finished murder drones, I'm gonna beg on my knees for this series to continue.

[LILBEAR-cyhb]

Okay, is no one gonna talk about deaths design?!
IT GOES SO HARD.
Incredibly creative, not having him talk, his body symbolizing a body bag, and the fact that his hood is actually a gaping mouth full of teeth.
Peak fiction.

[T.V_boi]

Things that don't exist:
- Bigfoot

[ImpossibleReasons]

K spider girl is WAY cuter than she has any right to be.

[I_am_Adam]
