Grim is miserable in the first days of his servitude, and even fantasizes about killing them multiple times. After Billy and Mandy cheated at a limbo match against Grim (in retaliation for putting the limbo rod too low for them to go under), he is enslaved in a permanently unwanted friendship with the children. The series is centered around the exploits of Billy ( Richard Steven Horvitz), an idiotic and happy-go-lucky boy Mandy ( Grey DeLisle), a cynical and cold-hearted girl and Grim ( Greg Eagles), a Jamaican-accented Reaper.
