Wow that title must be the longest title I've made for any of my blog posts. As it says I'm going to review one pick up. Two 80s cartoons that I think aired on Toonami and a cheesy Hanna Barbera show they played on April First. If I were still ranking these things All shows would go vastly above Tim and Eric, Go Fuck Yourself In the Ass Show. I will never not shit on those two god damned hacks. Portnoyd will yell about all of this, because he's a jerk.
Let's talk about the Hanna Barbera cartoon first. Portnoyd will do his terrible LOL HABERDASHERY-BANANA joke that no one ever has laughed at. Hanna Barbera is something I love. It's familiar. It's comforting. It's like a nice warm hug from someone after being out in the cold. Yes this cartoon is goofy and cheesy and it seems every episode ends with a basketball game. I will maybe let you know if that's the case because I'm probably gonna watch all 13 episodes of this beautiful nonsense. As for the Harlem Globetrotters. They were HUGE in the 1970s. In fact this is not the only cartoon they had. They even had comic books. I learned of them from The Simpsons and Futurama. I did not even realize they were real people unitl decades later though. I do not know sports. I know Hanna Barbera and Darkhawk comics. I am God's greatest mistake. Anyway, this cartoon they gave the Globetrotters powers. Spaghetti Man who could stretch and do shit like that. Float Man who could turn into water. Multi Man who could turn into multiplies of himself. A basketball person who I don't know what he did. Oh and the last guy would pick literally anything out of his giant afro. That joke alone is funnier than anything Tim and Eric would ever do. Complete and utter beautiful nonsense animated into a tv show. God bless the 1970s and God bless Joe Barbera and William Hanna.
I don't think I had ever seen any episode of Voltron before this. I wish I had because it is fucking awesome. Voltron doesn't even show up in the first episode and I'm already hooked. First off I love the music in this show. the little musical stings and stuff. So wonderful. Also I love the designs, the Ro-beasts are awesome looking. I like that they made one of the characters a stereotypical swede just for the fucking hell of it. I really should make a series of posts about actually sitting down and watching every episode of something. Like talk about the show after I've seen all the episodes. Anyway Voltron rules and I will definitely watch more of it.
I picked these four shows because well I had already seen enough of two of them so that I didn't have to watch anything. I make it out that watching something awesome is terrible but sometims you just wanna get a blog post out so you can argue with portnoyid becuase he's a BIG LAME BABY. ThunderCats is the touching story of several cat people who clearly abuse steroids of some kind and the weird and insane adventures they get into (seriously one adventure had Lion-O arm wrestle a caveman just because that's fucking awesome). They have wonderful villains. Vultureman, Slythe, Jackalman and Monkian are wonderful. Mumm-Ra is wonderful. All of the one off villains are wonderful. The designs for just about every character is delightful. This cartoon also has Bill Cosby's TV dad voice a blue cat man. If that isn't enough to get you to watch then I don't think anything will. It's sad because everyone else clearly will and they will make fun of you. Loser.
I am pretty sure when I did a post on the pick ups they did (mostly from Fox!). Actually it was two posts, I believe. Anyway, sometime last Year I finally decided to watch Bob's Burgers and what I found was a very entertaining, very wholesome, likable show. The Belchers are vastly different from any other cartoon family and that's very refreshing. I watched about half of the episodes, I'd say before getting burnt out and quitting. I always start a show and then go OOOOOOOOOOO look at this other shiney show! I dunno, I really should watch the rest of the episodes I haven't seen becuase this show is delightful and I like it a lot. Anyway, I'm looking forward to portnoyd pooping on this show because the only thing he loves in life is Tim and Eric. Couldn't even find a good thing to love but that's portnoyd for you.
So, another four shows down that appeared somewhere near adult swim or toonami. I will try to review everything on the wikipedia page because why not? don't ask me to bring back the rankings though. That's dead and gone. The Sam Hyde show is last and Tim and Eric are in second to last place. There, that's what you want to know.
