is it bad that i remember almost all of the characters, programs and movies in this episode from when i was a kid

 

[Srdjan Tanaskovic]

Hey bob remember how long ago you said that Ms.Marvel could get an entire episode for herself?

Why not make that?

 

[Scarim Coral]

Man I literary burst out laughing upon hearing that villain name Mr Bigot and his racist gun! I actually vaguely remember that Yogi Bear special "Yogi Bear and the Magical Flight of the Spruce Goose". I think I used to love that special as a kid but I can't remember what it is about.
Shame you didn't mention that he appear as a cameo in modern shows like The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy amd Harvey Birdman. Still good video on making a spotlight of the rise and fall of Yogi Bear.

That's a lot of spin-offs of spin-offs of spin-offs. I had no idea the HB stuff was that twisted in on itself.
This gets me wondering what Bob would have to say about the E/I stuff from the 90's, especially since he thinks so poorly of the 90's in general.

Maybe you should lay off the "[discussion point] IS WEIRD!" for a while.

'Cause honestly, it's getting a bit a annoying and I can't mute it quick enough.

Oh, GOD. That crap has been annoying the shit out of me for WEEKS.

Also, Bob...Your vast knowledge of things that don't really matter kinda made sense when you were talking about comics, but now I have to ask: How...and why....do you just KNOW all this crap?

And anyway, these "Let's talk for five minutes about some random fictional trivia because FUCK YOU, that's why" episodes are getting old. Remember when you were talking about NASA getting shut down? What the hell happened to stuff like that? You know, BIG PICTURE stuff?[footnote]See wat ah did thar?[/footnote]

Well, Bob's voice is already kinda annoying to me so when he warps it the annoyance goes into overdrive.

I love it, it's his thing and it indicates a fun episode.

Nice episode, even though I never watched the show and didn't really get the references.

Bob I don't mind you rambling on about stuff like this as I find something in your vids interesting, however try doing something topical next week as there may be a viewers revolt by the looks of the above comments xD

Also it would be something refreshing

 

[ShenCS]

Did Bob imply that there are people in the world who haven't watched Top Cat? Dammit Bob, I usually trust you to get your facts right.

 

[messy]

I'm amazed at how this is basically all the shows I watched as a kid, in the early to mid-90s.

Seriously Squiddly Diddly, Top Cat and Wacky Races. Thanks for the nostalgia.

 

[Something Amyss]

A racism gun. That's...Yeah, it makes Captain Planet's Rogue Gallery look like a sound and well-thought out bunch.

But it WOULD explain politics of late.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Wow! I had no idea Yogi Bear was so huge. Half of that stuff I've never even heard of.

 

[TheSchaef]

I had to scratch my head at those various characters being referred to as obscure, since I recognized every last one of them. Maybe it's just that Snagglepuss wasn't around as much as Huckleberry Hound, but come on, the two of them and Quickdraw and Oggy Doggy (and Doggy Daddy, my son, my son) went on pretty much every crossover adventure Yogi had.

It could also be that I watched the Laff-a-Lympics religiously as a child, so after a few years of that, I'm intimately familiar with Hong-Kong Fooey and Captain Caveman and Jabberjaw and all the rest. But I also remember seeing reruns of their individual shows, so I dunno.

People who want a real nostalgia trip on HB properties need (desperately!) to watch Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law. Not only is the titular character an old HB mainstay Birdman, but nearly all of his clients and supporting characters are from the HB universe, including Inch-High Private Eye, Magilla Gorilla, and Blue Falcon/Dinomutt, as his Latin nemesis, Azul Falcone.

Here's a classic example: Grape Ape caught 'roiding up at the Laff-a-Lympics:

Huh, certainly a strange journey he went on as a franchise...
