I like the Disney Afternoon. Let's do some more shows! Yeah! I'll get better at intro doing! (no I won't) (Did I ever mention that I like brackets?) (Did I mention how great all the NES and SNES games based around these cartoons were? Well I just did here!)
Aladdin was my favorite Disney movie as a kid. Musta watched that bastard a few thousand times. I'm pretty sure we wore the VHS tape out, just like we wore out the tape to Home Alone 2. Good stuff. I also loved this cartoon and thought it was great fun and Aladdin going on more adventures in and around Agraba worked much better than The Little Mermaid did. Of course one of the guys who worked on this show, Tad Stones, also created Darkwing Duck and Alan Zaslove (which is also a great name) worked on like most of the shows I've already mentioned and about 52 thousand other ones.. I believe Tad Stones would be a great name for an action movie hero, played by Wings Hauser. This show had great new villains like Abis Mal (which is a wonderful pun), Mozenrath and Mechanicles. This show also had a weird ass voice cast with George Costanza playing Abis Mal, Mozenrath being played by the kid from such film classics as The Never Ending Story Part 2 and Ladybugs, Homer Simpson replacing Robin Williams as the Genie (and I think he does a good job), Mr. Tone Loc who was in just about everything in the 1990s and to top it all off the sweet soothing voice of Gilbert Gottfried.. A show very much worth watching. Higly Recommended
Well here it is, the show I alluded too last time. So in the 1990s, espcially in the early 1990s, a fellow named John K (I'm not typing out his last name because fuck that) was a very popular animator because of the show Ren and Stimpy that he had created with Bob Camp. It was so popular that it made Nickoldean 720,0523509,05943059043, dollars and 32 cents. Disney decided they wanted some of that money so they got some dude I've never heard of to rip him off. Shnookums and Meat is pretty much the Disney Ren and Stimpy except really bad. the main reason is that it's not very funny but also because the way Ren and Stimpy was animated added a lot to its comedy (and I'm going to be honest here and say I don't think that shows that great either) and this show just looks like a Disney cartoon for the most part. It's weirdly off putting honestly. Oh yeah I do like the designs of the characters from all 3 segments I just wish I found the show as funny and entertaining I did when I was a wee child apparently watching this on The Disney Afternoon . For 13 episodes. Apparently little Michael was the only person who liked this. Not Recommended.
This is a great show. Incredible voice cast. Incredible LORE. Incredible everything. I don't know if this is true or not but according to the internet Greg Weisman had this idea in his head since the 1980s when he was a teen and if thats the case, it's great to see an idea gestate over all these years into a great cartoon. I'm not even sure if thats a word or if its spelt wrong because it feels like a word. Apparently it's to carry a fetus to birth. so he carried an idea fetus from a teenager to his time and Disney! Wow that's a terrible sentence but really what can I say that hasn't been said by about 50,000 other people online about this show. The characters were great and voiced by great actors (KEITH DAVID and THAT RIKER GUY from Star Trek also David Xanatos is better than his Riker character but not as good as him on BEYOND BELIEF. Find it in your heart Star Trek people, you know it to be true!) All of the characters were an insane amount of fun to watch and you never quite knew what was gonna happen. A great series that would call back to other stuff full of mystery and wonder. Highly Recommended
