Review: Meeble & Creeble

Posted on by

If you’ve ever found yourself scrolling through TikTok at 2:00 AM only to be told by a tarot reader that your “vibrations are low” because Mars is in retrograde, then Christina Fidler’s Meeble & Creeble is the call-out you didn’t know you needed.

Debuting on Adult Swim SMALLS on February 20, 2026, this three-part series is a masterclass in capturing the specific, frantic energy of modern “spirituality” culture. It’s weird, it’s uncomfortable, and it’s arguably the most authentic portrayal of co-dependent 20-somethings currently on the internet.

The Premise: Astrology Under a Microscope

The series follows the titular Meeble and Creeble, two friends whose entire personalities are constructed from crystal healing, star charts, and manifestation rituals. The premiere episode, “THE FOOL (reversed),” sets a high bar. As a full moon rises in Scorpio, the duo attempts to manifest their deepest desires, only to be met with the kind of cosmic backfire that only Adult Swim can deliver.

Fidler (known as @schwiftybits) leans heavily into the absurdity of the “spiritual influencer” aesthetic, but it never feels like a mean-spirited parody. Instead, it feels like an observation from someone who has been in the trenches of a crystal shop and lived to tell the tale.

Animation Style: Digital Chaos

Fidler’s background with Bento Box and Comedy Central shines through here. The 2D animation is fluid but retains a “web-native” grit that fits the SMALLS brand perfectly.  Neon pastels meet “spiritual” purple gradients that feel like a direct reflection of a high-vibration Instagram filter. Meeble and Creeble have a jittery, expressive quality—their eyes frequently dart around in a way that perfectly conveys their perpetual state of “looking for a sign” from the universe.

Why It Works

What makes Meeble & Creeble stand out among other SMALLS entries is its specificity. It isn’t just “weird for the sake of being weird.” It targets a very specific contemporary neurosis: the desperate need for external validation from the stars because the real world feels too chaotic to manage.

The chemistry between the voice actors (including Fidler herself) captures that specific brand of “best friend talk” where logic is entirely optional as long as the vibes are right.

The Verdict: A Must-Watch Manifestation

Meeble & Creeble is a bite-sized triumph. It’s a satirical mirror held up to a generation obsessed with manifesting their way out of problems they probably just need a therapist for.
