    My favorite moments from Pickles, played to perfection by the great Jean Smart in the severly underrated show The Oblongs (2001). Also I don't own any of these clips and I'll willingly take the video down if someone wants me to.

    I don’t care what nobody says I loved the show, it just goes to show that we all have flaws and it really help me during a time when I was growing up because I was bullied a lot. I’m glad they drew them WERID and odd looking because I felt like that my whole life. And it really helped me love myself and all my flaws🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️ ps. THE DAD AND MOM WAS MY FAV CHARACTER & the little girl I guess cause she was so unexpected and quiet 🤐

      Yeah lol, it acknowledges she and the others have faults, but any issues come out of legitimate faults that aren't intended by them, not them being toxic assholes 24/7 as their personalities, and when she's drunk, that reflects that, she doesn't think ill of her life or family or thinks of her family as a burden, so it makes it actually funny when something extreme or bad happens with her or when she does something bad from time to time. AKA this is why stuff like Family Guy nowadays is unfunny as shit when watched in it's entirety.

      @@idiotperson5555 It can be funny but only in clips and because every now and again they put in a good joke that works amidst the dozens of "I get millennial and Gen Z" style jokes and humor they forcefully put into each episode. The problem also is they wanna do like "this person is shit...but relatable" with the story and the humor, but it doesn't work cus the characters have just done so much heinous shit or haven't evolved past the first few seasons, sometimes them having by now undergone several episodes highlighting the same issues with their character, althewhile being toxic insufferable assholes. Ngl, I love lowbrow humor, but, as an example, even I can't find the humor in uncreatively saying "Peter Griffin is a p*dophile" for the fiftieth time for a joke now (that's a running gag for a while now that I think was done well like twice, one being a Harry Potter gag), on top of a million other shit things he's done, just makes me wanna punch the character and only enjoy the show when he's in agony, yet they still want you to root for him/have a relatable laugh with him when he goes through shit.

    I like that she genuinely does love her husband. It sucks the "hateful married couple" trope has been done to death so much that seeing a nuclear family that is completely dysfunctional but their actual care for one another *makes* it function is a breath of fresh air. None of these characters are completely good (save for maybe some of the kids) but you actually like them despite it. Great show.

      I weirdly love that the writers didn't make Pickles resent having a family or feel like she wasted her potential by getting married. She could have been a designer but hated having her ideas stolen and talked down to by jackasses like Tommy Vinegar and Pristine. It was a hobby and didn't make her happy. A lot of 1990s - early 2000s family shows did that with the mother figures going back to college to finish the education they put on hold to raise their families while building resentment for their kids and partners' ability to use the time she "lost".

    The Oblongs had its humorous bits while highlighting the depressing nature of the low and poverty class families. If anything, the show could be amusing and the humor aged well. But simply didn't meet its viewer gauge and needs to survive.
    Now, I think if they gave Oblongs a second chance, this show might stand out better. The likes of Family Guy and Simpsons had diminished in quality, and many other adult oriented shows had been cancelled.

      If it was a friend- and say I had to do something I didn't want to- I'd use her "If I don't make it, I want you to be buried alive with me."
      But my favorite was specifically in High School when I was near those groups of friends that all basically wore the same thing, I'd use her Debbie line of "Either I'm realllllly smashed or you and your friends all look alike..."

    After noticing that the female Hill characters have an affinity for 50s- 60s updos and bouffant hairstyles, I just had a minor detail thought. We've seen in the past that Pickles used to style her hair in a beehive- bouffant style. After moving to the Valley, her wigs were probably beehive styles at first but as she started drinking, she probably began passing out in weird angles and riding in the family car (her hair bends like Marge Simpson's do ) the tops became iconicly bent.
    Meanwhile her ex friend Pristine just updated her teenage Debbie bouffant into a Karen Bob bouffant. It show how differently the two gals from the Hills followed their paths I'm life.

    Pickles is how you make a mother who does have flaws but genuinely does care for her family and does everything that counts when it comes to being a good mother and wife. She smokes and she drinks and she lost all her hair but she never blames anyone else other than probably the assholes up in the hills. Which to be honest that's completely justified. She loves her family and she does everything that she can for her family and when she does make a mistake she is genuinely sorry and tries to make it right and tries to change or tries to see things from other people's perspectives.

    @novalopez3068 2 года назад +132

    What i like about the oblongs is the idea of family.
    In many shows, they show people together but they hate eachother.
    For instance, family guy.
    Peter feels Trapped in his marriage and takes out his anger by doing stupid shit and hating on his kids.
    Louis was a party girl who got brought down by marriage and is now a cynical Karen.
    Constantly trying to control something because she's lost control at home.
    Chris is there as a gag effect to either represent teenage sexual tendencies in an extreme way or make incest jokes.
    Meg started out as the gag middle child people might have been able to relate to but she turned into the gag stick.
    Whatever plotting they want they can just make her do it sense her character has no substance.
    This episode she's a lesbian, now she's beating people up on to return to normal by the next episode.
    And then stewie and brian.
    Again both started out as a sort of comedy relief until they ran that course.
    Now they are left with whatever stereotype they couldn't fit into the others.
    It went from stewie wanting to kill louis and brian being an alcoholic writer to know where stewie is trying to have s#x with louis and brian is just stewies side kick.
    Then there's this show.
    Each character has there own personality and problems and they even have disagreements and fights but they stick together and have eachothers backs.
    And that's a family.
    Bob is very positive and is trying to keep everyone happy and healthy.
    And unlike other shows, he loves his wife and kids.
    Pickles is negative with problems but she shows genuine care for her family.
    Constantly showing love her own way and trying to do what she thinks is best.
    And unlike other shows, she loves her husband and kids.
    Maybe things could have been better, but she wouldn't trade it for the world.
    The kids are strange but they are trying to live a normal life despite being different.
    Unlike other shows where they take mundane characters and put them in strange situations.
    And that is what I like about oblongs over any other show.
    The only show that comes eben close is American dad but thats more of a mid point.
