My favorite joke from Drawn Together was the episode where some of the character hit a bum while drunk and take him home to treat him, only for Captain Hero to realize the bum is in fact one of his super villains. Torn between finishing off a villain and treating a helpless person, he calls out "Lord, give me a sign!" And at the moment, a flaming goat smashes through a window, wrecks the room and runs out. After a moment Captain Hero simply says, "Well what the ☆●@! did that mean?"

in my opinion. any dub is bad. I prefer the original language and subs .. Its a american / german thing to dub everything into the local language. In germany they dub movies from hollywood.. In sweden where i live they dub most movies that is anime for example and they lower the "dub age" to 10-12 years old viewers .. even if it is 15-17+ in the original movie. Its the same as if you drive 50 km/h on the freeway to avoid getting into accidents... they aim very low below the roof..

That was hilarious. I will not forget that episode he literally gives his young 12-year-old self the worst advice ever. Telling him to screw a sandwich in front of the girl you’re asking out to the dance. to set the barn house dance on fire to try and make you a hero button instead you’re told to screw the sandwich while you’re a girl love interest burns up she sees you in a bit of hatred calls you a freak. But yeah, sure messed up his childhood not to mention the funniest well part was the ending. I don’t wanna throw this in there, but those cops waited 20 years for him to arrive at the scene to grab the photo of his past junk. I kind of referred the law-enforcement officers that waited 20 years as the Taliban yeah as soon as the US leaves and yeah, as soon as the Afghan government takes full power to themselves the Taliban immediately come out and say yeah, we’re taking back Afghanistan and there’s nothing you can do to stop us. So there may have been a prediction there with the fall of Afghanistan.

Fun fact: Some of the voice actors in the Latin American dub did express how uncomfortable they were with the things they had to say.

Between the cast there was Gerardo Reyero (Captain Hero) and Lalo Garza (Xander), they dub a lot of anime but they ALWAYS do Drawn Together acts and the public LOVES IT EVERYTIME. Heck, even Gerardo have appeared on stage cosplaying as Captain Hero!

I think the show did it best with the Veggietales parody where they actually deliver a pretty solid message about faith and forcing your beliefs on others. In a regular cartoon that would wrap up the episode & the Vegetables would learn the lesson. In drawn together the Christian fundamentalist Bob the Cucumber just starts shooting everyone until he's cured of his insanity & upon realising what he's done he shoots himself. I still think that's a very funny way to subvert that trope & I don't think many shows go that far in lampooning Christian extremism that ruthlessly today.

I agree, and that's why Saberspark's take completely surprised me. Maybe because I wasn't aware of the rivalry, I just watched the show without researching background info. For me the message was like this: "Drawn Together gets cancelled for lacking a message and just messing around, while shows that do worse stuff (i.e. sexualizing a little girl) can continue because they have a 'message' the authors hide behind." So not only did they a nice oxymoronic "Our message is you don't need a message.", but they also predicted Cuties!

"People are too sensitive these days" is a strange argument to me, because it seems like people were just as if not more sensitive in the past about controlling the portrayal of social norms and minorities. The fact that Star Trek was so controversial over a biracial kissing scene, that queer characters were censored out or relegated to negative roles in films, that the Hays Code was even a thing. These days, that history of bigotry is commonly condemned (and still being dealt with, especially with regard to gender norms). It is possible to go overboard and censor in the opposite extreme, with mere mention of the topic being too offensive for some, and it's also possible to lean into stereotypes and controversial opinions for contrarian's sake and, well, become a proponent of bigotry yourself. You're allowed to find whatever you like to be funny, but these days you can't expect most people to agree that it's funny and laugh with you because public opinion is becoming more varied over time. All that said, I would like these kinds of shows to continue existing for the audiences that enjoy them.

People were definitely more sensitive back then. Don't forget about the infamous "Hot Coffee" incident in GTA SA where a bunch of pearl-clutchers canceled and filed multiple class action lawsuits against Rockstar for a poorly animated raunchy scene that could only be found by hacking into the game's files. That happened before this show even aired 🤣

💯 This is the real conversation we really need to have about this topic. We had arbitrary rules we upheld solely for the thought it was rude but really wasn't when those customs like not cussing and taking hats off at the table among other things we had to do regardless of whether or not these activities actually affected others let alone actually questioning the status quo and being aware of how we interact with others and treat individuals in marginalized communities. It's not about being more or less sensitive per say but being more deliberate in our sensitivities because of the fact there's reasons for holding certain values other than "because I told you so" or any other excuse leveraged by those in positions of authority.

Yeah saying "people are too sensitive these days" is just another overused point to excuse straight up offending or making fun of minority groups for the sake of it. Nothing funny about it, usually just insults covered as "jokes". Which is ironic because when a show makes fun of the same groups saying these things they get bashed for being political, it's just hypocrisy at its finest, the simple existence of alt-right political videos on KZitem calling for literal genocide on trans/gay/black people is proof to begin with

Here's an idea for a reboot: in universe, the reality tv show they were all on blew up, becoming wildly popular. The characters are all gathered back together for a sort of second version of their original show, but now they have the fame of that original show to go off of. So, we see how they use it. Maybe the princess uses her fame to try and spread her religious ideologies, the pig could use it to try and make money, while the JRPG guy just goes to lots of parties. We explore how they interact both with each other inside the new show, but also outside of it with fans. Have the whole thing be a commentary on celebrity worship, toxic para-social relationships, and how some people are famous despite doing pretty much nothing of note.

I really did have a fondness for this show when it aired. Not only was it totally unapologetic and made heavy use of negative continuity, but they were totally aware of how the audiences would see them and leaned very heavily on that. Such as when Clara bursts into Wooldor's show exclaiming "what in the name of one dimensional characters and predictable responses is going on here?". Or in terms of endearment when Foxxy changes to the 40s caricature and people cry "oh no! Foxxy's become a racist stereotype!" And Clara quips"... Wait. What was she before?" For me two things killed the show. The first was splitting the third season in half with a ridiculously long hiatus, thus losing most of their audience who thought it wasn't coming back. And second was the writers focusing too much on Captain Hero in season 3 and the movie. He was not an audience favourite but the stories kept pushing him front and centre when there really wasn't enough depth of character to sustain them. So they just increased his levels of depravity. Seriously, he went from "kinky and sexually open" in the first series to an actual necrophiliac in the movie. Yikes.

I think Spanky (the crassest, cruelest and most consistently malicious character in the main cast) delivering the moral lesson at the end of various episodes was a deliberate choice by the writers. I think it's meant to be another jab at South Park, but a slightly more subtle one. I think they're mocking the idea of these crude and mean-spirited children suddenly going "I learned something today" and then poignantly delivering the moral lesson of the episode with perfect understanding and insight. Granted, that was the same exact joke Matt and Trey were going for by having the kids do that in the first place, but over time it started to morph into the characters being used to soapbox about Parker and Stone's real beliefs. I believe Spanky being simultaneously the instigator of an episode's conflict AND the resolution to the broader moral conflict of that particular episode is meant to mock South Park for being hypocritical about what it is. They eventually drop all subtlety in the movie, and straight up call South Park out on this via the "Suck My Taint Girl" and "Make-A-Point Land" bits, arguing that many adult animations with "deep" messages or serious sociopolitical observations are just using such things as a massive fig leaf to justify being as crass and offensive as possible for a laugh.

And it didn’t fascinate me much as an adult? But I did think it was funny. I was in my early 20’s. I was finally glad I got to watch it. Ling ling is still my favorite. I had ling ling as my MySpace profile photo forever lol!

I have only seen clips from the show it self, but those clips have made me absolutely love it already. 😂 I also have a suggestion for a animated show that you could review some day and it's pretty obscure and interesting +it's a really nostalgic show for me. It's called *Alfred J Kwak* + it has other qualities that make it a perfect show for you to review, it has: -controversial episodes and topics -some really weird stuff -dark scenes -interesting history behind it -IT HAS A FURRY (CROW) character thats very directly based on the austrian kid you mentioned in the Wish video. -episodes 22-25 + 29 of the show are absolutely insane because of they're subject matter

The EXTRA weird thing about Disney ignoring their past bigotries is that in the steel case releases of their older cartoons there are intros by Leonard Maltin doing basically the same thing that that WB disclaimer is doing in front of each cartoon that have socially insensitive content. So they WERE doing what WB is currently doing for a while before deciding to just start reediting their material.

I'll say this. Being a fan of the first season I thank you for this history recap. You saved me from not only wasting time watching the other seasons or the "disappointmenting" movie but more importantly you saved me from feeling uncomfortable about the un-redeeming content of the jokes without any moral remorse or compassion. The first season was funny cause it was mocking the outrageous double standards that were built into major networks. That apparently died in the first season so again thank you for saving me from ever waiting my time.

I do really like the show’s concept of cartoon characters from different genres living together. I think it unconsciously inspired an idea I had that keeps floating around in my head: a city that’s a safe haven for all animated characters, including inkblot characters, classic characters, characters from cartoons made to sell toys, superheroes, slice of life characters, comedy characters, characters from adult animated family sitcoms, anime characters (including battle shonens, magical girls, slice of life anime) etc etc

I always loved Drawn Together for how well animated it was for an adult animated show, the concept, the characters and the blood, pff I actually thought it was super creative tbh I'm also amazed that they managed to parody characters I had a deeply emotional attachment to at the time (like Pikachu or Pokemon in general for example) and drag them through the dirt and stuff without making me feel hurt by it the way that my bullies did whenever they made fun of me for liking Pokemon Like, I mean, I always appreciated the way they did the main characters, making it clearly recognizable who they're a parody of, but also making them clearly their own thing enough so it didn't feel like a personal attack to me for liking the original base material Compare that to Teen Titans Go which, while being way less raunchy and offensive (obviously since it's actually made for kids), and I actually feel a lot more like I'm getting bullied again watching what TTG does to the Teen Titans than I do watching what Drawn Together does to Pokemon or Disney Princesses or Superheroes or fat people, etc and I can't exactly explain how or why that is

It’s because they’re not making pikachu a bad person, they’re making Ling ling a bad person. When they take Robin, the stoic, well-meaning, well-respected leader, and turn him into a sniveling pathetic loser for jokes, you hurt bc you know that Robin, originally, is so much more than that. But you don’t hurt when ling ling is made fun of because, while he’s obviously supposed to REPRESENT pikachu, he’s not pikachu. He’s a different character with a pikachu-like skin.

@@frostfeather6584this couldn’t have been better said. You’re not laughing at the franchise itself, you’re laughing at a parody. In TTG, you’re just blatantly bullying Robin for the punch line, and laughing at that doesn’t feel right. People forget what parody is supposed to be, it’s supposed to be a way to laugh at the things you like and know, because even if you love them you can sensibly see a parody being an over the top cringey version of everything bad about the thing you love, and laugh it and go “yeah I can see that”

I was at the Anaheim Comic Con premiere in 2010 of The Movie, which was an interesting experience. My friend and I knew the film was terrible, but we kept hoping that something better would shine through. It didn't. However, an interesting thing about this premiere was even if the film was free, the people running the panel delayed the event because they were out trying to get people to actually show up. Right before they showed it, they said that they wanted to have the audience yell "drink" every time something offensive happened and one of them would take a shot. They yelled "drink" a lot, which... is pretty much the only thing I remember from that night. I tried to meet the show on its terms since reruns were common, but no... it was terrible.

i never thought of drawn together as a show with a plot. To me its more of a show of multiple small character stories just making fun of it all. Honestly while its cool that most shows have plot consistency, drawn together isn't a show that needs it. The interesting thing was that, like you also said somewhere down the line with spanky, the character stories were driven by their worst trait, without having it be a reveal but instead as a baseline.
