+12Daniel34 A lot of good that document did, since Poochie did make cameo appearances in later Itchy and Scratchy episodes, including the I&S Halloween special in Treehouse of Horror IX, and "Tears of a Clone", where he attended Scratchy's funeral.
One detail I like is that in spite of the seemingly irreversible process in the end trying to keep Poochie dead and the audience happy, he STILL appears in some later episodes. The higher ups NEVER learn from their mistakes and the process just repeats.
Is it just me or does it look like they actually just moved up the real cel of Poochy for that scene? It doesn’t look animated to me. Either way it’s hilarious.
Butch Hartman seems to have a fetish with cartoon dogs, they appear all the time and everywhere in his cartoons. Someone should tell him people don't love dogs thaaat much.
There has also been too many dog cartoons non-stop. I have a dog and they are great animals and things like "Lady and the Tramp" were great but I agree that it does feel at times that it is the only animal cartoon producers/executives know. How about an owl cartoon for a change?
I wonder what planet has talking dogs who love to go around saying shit like "catch you on the flip side dudemisters" and "yo yo, I'm a rockin surfer....not!", and then he takes off without a spaceship just rising up into the air just like that (and we can see the writing on the bottom of the animation cell Poochie was on). It's all freakin hilarious. Just him floating up into the sky into space, no ship, no rocket, no spacesuit, no wonder he died, he froze and had no oxygen. It's so laughable, lol lol lol 😁😁😁😂😂😂🤣😄😅😂😅
Say what you want about Scrappy but he actually revived Scooby Doo if it wasn't for him Scooby Doo would have been as obscure as the other Hannah Barbera cartoons.
Pelcogo obscure or not, I still love other cartoons, but find scrappy doo the most annoying thing about an otherwise excellent show. To each their own, though.
I don't particularly care for Scrappy myself but he kept the younger viewers attention and at the time It made scooby doo relevant long enough for the show to get popular again. Now we don't even need Scrappy anymore and he hasn't even been relevant since the 70's.
I’ll be honest, I respect how Krusty actually signed an affidavit for his fans to make sure a piece of shit character like that would never return. We need this to happen more in real life.
+Rabicolombian A lot of good that affidavit did, since Poochie does appear in later Itchy and Scratchy episodes.

@@dobadobadooo There's no object reason I can post to change your mind and that's fine, but I hated it. If you liked it that's fine, but most of us didn't, you should respect that. I've started disliking it way earlier than the end and here are some of my reasons (I would need to write an entire book of everything that went wrong): Arya was ruined when they separated her from The Hound - all of the mask face was ridiculously boring to watch and made that all that was building up before was useless, she was traveling through Westeros searching for vengeance and now, no, she's far away doing shit no one cares. Awful storytelling. And that kind of shit repeats all over. The whitewalkers, for example: They have been building this greater than great, more powerful than anything enemy since the first episode. And how do they solve this plot? With one, just one crappy episode. This makes no sense of scale or anything that was set before in the show. When the Night Watch found the Free Folk in season 4 I guess that was just one episode and it was much much better well made than the final fight. What the hell happened to Sansa? Why would she obey Littlefinger and go with Ramsey? Why would Littlefinger want that too? None of the actions that happened make sense on what was built before, it was just incredibly lazy so they had shock scenes cheaply. They created a vast interconnected world and lost track of everything, they just cut the ties really cheaply and in a lazy way. Don't know what to do with the Sand sisters? Just kill everyone. Don't know what to do with Danny "empire" in the East? Just abandon it. On season 6, Danny was already too close to Westeros, how do they deal with this in the story? Oh, just make so she wastes and entire season with the Dothraki again, that will help postpone the events to the glorious finale. What happened to the Night Watch when Jon and fatty left? Do you remember about distances? Do you remember how long it took for the Starks to travel south? But then on Season 7, every episode all characters just teleport all across Westeros so the plot can move. Again, you can enjoy this if you do, but most people saw the cheapeness and hate it, and that has nothing to do with it being "popular", the reason it is popular to hate on it is because it was crap.

we had to put down our dog today who was named after poochie and as we were all crying over her and shit my brother just said 'she has to go now. her planet needs her' and it made us laugh through the tears
@@midnightoverdriver That isn't hard to believe, what is hard to believe is that 1. They named the dog specifically after this dog and 2. The brother not only made a joke about it's death, but that they also laughed at it.
That's because the entire animation was paused and they just dragged Poochie's cel out of there, you can even hear the sound of the cel being moved. It's clearly something they pulled at the last minute.
Nya, it's a hint that the animators originally animated an episode with Homer's speech and Roger Meyers did a different episode with his own hands minutes before the original one aired. Itchy and Scratchy at the Ice Sculpture Contest is probably a reused sequence from a previous episode.
This has to be one of the most famous moments on the Simpsons. Everybody who needs a excuse for a movie or TV show either says they died on their way back to their home planet or a wizard did it.
Luke optimistically redeemed his father despite his father being the worse person possible - killing children and other innocents, enslaved a galaxy under tyrannical rule, and watching as his empire blew up a planet... Somehow later Luke became a depressed cynical paranoid, and attempted to kill his nephew in his sleep over a hunch that he'll turn bad one day.
No because at least 'Poochie died on the way back to his home planet' reveals previously unknown information. 'Somehow palatine returned' is literally nothing and therefore much worse.
@@Archedgar there's also nothing inherently wrong about Poochie dying. He was a hated character after all. Palpatine returning ruined his entire character and made a already bad set of movies completely pointless
I love how Roger Myers isn’t just ignoring Homer’s pleas to give Poochie a chance, but he also gives ZERO effort when dubbing Poochie over, or with anything else.
I fucking love how they wrote the line "My planet needs me" simply because they just lifted the slide up and needed a reason to explain why Poochy was being "lifted up" yet didn't bother to use scissors to snip that one part off for 3 frames. Fucking comedy gold holy moly.
Seeing as Simpsons knows and loves its cartoon history, I think this might be a "tribute" to the final Screwy Squirrel cartoon, where Tex Avery disliked the titular character so much he actually killed him off offscreen.
The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 1: Mando: “Where’s Cara?” Greef: She heard about New Alderaan so she decided to go help them rebuild. Unfortunately she flew straight into an asteroid right after exiting hyperspace.” Mando: “How unfortunate. Anyway enough about her. let me tell you what Grogu has learned from Skywalker.”
Cara was already supposed to be gone, they wanted to make a spin off show from her character, they even hinted at it during her last episode when one of the rebels asked her to join some bullshit thing. Ironic that she got destroyed by the same wokeness that was going to give her bland ass character a career.
Mando: "Where's Cara?" Greef: "Who are you talking about? Cara? Never heard of her. Let me check on the Disney Holonet... nope! No trace of any Cara whatsoever in the whole galaxy my friend." Mando: "Ok I get it. I need a job as well. How are the selling figures of Grogu's toys?"
+Carlisle the Cinephile If I remember correctly in the most recent season, in the halloween episode (not Treehouse of Horror), Homer states that the Treehouse of Horror are just gatherings in the treehouse in which Homer tells them stories.
Am I the only one who finds the sworn affidavit from Krusty and the lawyer saying "This document conforms to all applicable laws and statutes" funnier than the "I have to go now, my planet needs me"? Probably not but rhetorical questions are fun.
The way how Poochie is yanked (or yoinked) off screen so he can "return to his home planet" was simply telling the animators to pull up that one animation cel where Poochie was drawn. Interestingly the production number of the episode (4F12) is also shown.
Simpsons was “meta” before Disney owned it. Now they’ll never let it die. And if they do it’ll never be as gracefully as poochie left us. All the evidence you need is that every few months they find a way to churn out some Star Wars related animated maggie simpson adventure. I used to hope beyond hope that Disney would let the simpsons die when the main cast do, now that they have a voiceless figurehead they’ll never stop peddling simpsons tie-ins.
I love this kind of animation. They didn't even bother to render it up or cut him out from the layer. They have just slide it up, make a photo of it for every frame and they even decide to keep the border for the last frame even when pochi was out of the scene already.
They should never have had Poochie as a main character. If he was a supporting character, he could have worked. His whole exit also demonstrates the lack of professionalism in executives.
Yep, but Homer refused to take on that role unless they change his personality. That's how Poochie got similar traits to Otto in having a surfer's attitude and plays guitar. Homer didn't want to voice him being an evil money grubbing boss due to him having to deal with Mr. Burns on a daily basis at the Power Plant.
I think the main problem Poochie had was that the '90s were still going on when this episode aired, so even though he was cool people didn't appreciate him because of that. If he'd debuted after the Great Recession started, there would have been much more of a market for '90s nostalgia.
The way those kids are cheering Poochie’s demise reminds me of how everyone in the nineties felt when Dan Cortese stopped appearing in Burger King commercials.
Yeah I like to imagine that they actually did go ahead and animate the version with Homer's monologue but then Roger Meyer got cold feet at the absolute last minute and changed it.
I like how they didn't even give him a heroic or meaningful death, like "Poochie died protecting his planet from evil alien overlords." He just died on the way, pointlessly 😅
Lol yes, that's the best part about it.
It also implies his planet is doomed. Could be a jab at cliffhangers.

Alicemudgarden90 - the funniest bit about that is real kids would probably cheer that even WITH them most likely not understanding it.

You gotta love Bart's genuine amazement at the sudden reveal that Poochie was apparently alien the whole time.
It only confirms what Homer says earlier, that Poochie can still be an interesting character that kids will like if they do things right.

More people hated Poochie than Hitler, Stalin or Congress!
And there was much rejoicing.
If this was today Poochie would gain meme status becoming unironically popular or have whole video essays examining if he really deserved the hate.
Or he would be an oddity remembered only by a few 90s kids, like Gabbo.

@@SuperTed19021 yeah but what's the point in putting animation in a shit character that's never gonna be seen again
They had to lie to Homer about what they were doing. They did this behind his back. So this sequence was animated at the last minute.
The lazy and cheap way that he was" killed" makes it even funnier, especially the hand-written title card describing his death.
As an animator, that joke was really funny to me.

Disney- we will kill Indies health, his wealth his friends and son/ lineage and make him old and grumpy.
Disney - why you guys not fund this film?
Good riddance!
I like how Itchy and Scratchy don't even look up when Poochie is beamed.
It's the way everything was edited that caused that. It was a static shot.
That's because the entire animation was paused and they just dragged Poochie's cel out of there, you can even hear the sound of the cel being moved. It's clearly something they pulled at the last minute.
Nya, it's a hint that the animators originally animated an episode with Homer's speech and Roger Meyers did a different episode with his own hands minutes before the original one aired. Itchy and Scratchy at the Ice Sculpture Contest is probably a reused sequence from a previous episode.
This has to be one of the most famous moments on the Simpsons. Everybody who needs a excuse for a movie or TV show either says they died on their way back to their home planet or a wizard did it.
Alien 3 essentially. Spend all of aliens getting attached to newt and in the sequel oh sorry she dieded
I've always loved how endlessly happy the kids in audience are. This is genuinely the happiest anyone has ever been in the history of the Simpsons.
This is how Sparky from The Fairly OddParents died.
Especially since there the same character! It's a perfect mix!

"Note: Poochie died on the way back to his home planet" is the equivalent of "Somehow Palpatine returned "to me.
They're one another's memetic opposite.
Luke optimistically redeemed his father despite his father being the worse person possible - killing children and other innocents, enslaved a galaxy under tyrannical rule, and watching as his empire blew up a planet...
Somehow later Luke became a depressed cynical paranoid, and attempted to kill his nephew in his sleep over a hunch that he'll turn bad one day.
No because at least 'Poochie died on the way back to his home planet' reveals previously unknown information.
'Somehow palatine returned' is literally nothing and therefore much worse.
We need a sworn affidavit that Palpatine will never, ever, ever return!
@@Archedgar there's also nothing inherently wrong about Poochie dying. He was a hated character after all. Palpatine returning ruined his entire character and made a already bad set of movies completely pointless
Imagine being so hated as a character that they make a SWORN Document to make sure you never return.
The way Krusty says "POOCHIES DEAD!" gets me every single time xD
Wahuhuhahaaa!
"...this sworn affidavit that Poochie will NEVER, EVER, EVER return.." God it's so funny how Krusty says that.
Shows how much fans hated Poochie.
The new Powerpuff Girls reboot episode with Bliss be like
Bliss: I'm gonna go now, my planet needs me.
Note: Bliss died on the way back to her home planet
BLISS IS DEAD! HUAHAHAHAHAHA
The Power of Four special was supposed to be Bliss's only appearance, not as a major character
Bruce Patel Yeah... about that...
I say that every single time I leave for work now. "I have to go now, my planet needs me."
Nightweaver20xx
Note: Nightweaver20xx died on the way back to his home planet
Woah she came from another planet?!
I love how Roger Myers isn’t just ignoring Homer’s pleas to give Poochie a chance, but he also gives ZERO effort when dubbing Poochie over, or with anything else.
The late Alex Rocco's last line on the show was "I have to go now. My planet needs me." How *sniff* fitting.
"Do you know who I am? I'm Poochie! I made my bones when you were going out with cheerleaders!"
Krusty was banging cocktail waitresses two at a time!
One of many memorable and great moments from the Golden Age of the Simpsons.
You can see the cel numbers haha
They even used reinforcement tabs for the cel!
4F12 SC273
I fucking love how they wrote the line "My planet needs me" simply because they just lifted the slide up and needed a reason to explain why Poochy was being "lifted up" yet didn't bother to use scissors to snip that one part off for 3 frames. Fucking comedy gold holy moly.
Seeing as Simpsons knows and loves its cartoon history, I think this might be a "tribute" to the final Screwy Squirrel cartoon, where Tex Avery disliked the titular character so much he actually killed him off offscreen.
The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 1:
Mando: “Where’s Cara?”
Greef: She heard about New Alderaan so she decided to go help them rebuild. Unfortunately she flew straight into an asteroid right after exiting hyperspace.”
Mando: “How unfortunate. Anyway enough about her. let me tell you what Grogu has learned from Skywalker.”
Cara was already supposed to be gone, they wanted to make a spin off show from her character, they even hinted at it during her last episode when one of the rebels asked her to join some bullshit thing. Ironic that she got destroyed by the same wokeness that was going to give her bland ass character a career.
@@sws212 yeah yeah whatever
@@sws212 That same Wokeness will be coming for us all at some point friend
Mando: "Where's Cara?"
Greef: "Who are you talking about? Cara? Never heard of her. Let me check on the Disney Holonet... nope! No trace of any Cara whatsoever in the whole galaxy my friend."
Mando: "Ok I get it. I need a job as well. How are the selling figures of Grogu's toys?"
@@christopherchapman2493 May the wokeness be with you
but then you see him again in a treehouse of horrors episode :3
+Fieronfire And at Scratchy's funeral.
Treehouse of Horror episodes aren't canon
+Carlisle the Cinephile If I remember correctly in the most recent season, in the halloween episode (not Treehouse of Horror), Homer states that the Treehouse of Horror are just gatherings in the treehouse in which Homer tells them stories.
Boy I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder....
Pretty sure he's in the Simpsons game as well (the ps2 version)
My mate used to watch the X-Men Evolution cartoons. He hated Spyke so much he referred to him as Poochie
Yeah Spyke was pretty bad.
Even though I've seen people like that in the present day?
godzillavkk Same. I always liked Spyke n_n
TheMythof Feminism S'all good. I was a big fan of both.
I would compare him to Night Thrasher, except he got blown up in Marvel Civil War and even other characters made fun of his skateboard.
0:29 Also, laughing after declaring someone dead? Krusty did it *long* before Voldemort made it funny. Now, where's Krusty's hipster glasses?
Hehehe
I want my tombstone to read "Died on the way to his home planet."
Now when characters suddenly leave shows for no reason it's referred to as being "Poochied".
Actually it's called Chuck Cunningham Syndrome.
Actually it’s called Chuck Cunningham syndrome
I don't think I've seen that term on TVTropes.
How to continue House of Cards without Kevin Spacey.
I like how they included the chainsaw that was supposed to kill him
You can really see all the effort they put into Poochy's exit story here.
Am I the only one who finds the sworn affidavit from Krusty and the lawyer saying "This document conforms to all applicable laws and statutes" funnier than the "I have to go now, my planet needs me"?
Probably not but rhetorical questions are fun.
“We all know that sometimes when cartoon characters die they’re back the very next week.”
Matt and Trey: write that down, write that down!
*Gimme A Break!* already did it with Gertrude the Goldfish.
Poochie actually does make a cameo in a later episode at a funeral.
ironic.........TO THE EXTREME!!!!!

*car drives off into the sunset*
He makes a cameo in 1 Treehouse of horror Episode
His cameo was in "Little Big Mom" (January 2000)
where boys cried: iron man's sacrifice
where men cried:
The way how Poochie is yanked (or yoinked) off screen so he can "return to his home planet" was simply telling the animators to pull up that one animation cel where Poochie was drawn. Interestingly the production number of the episode (4F12) is also shown.
Still can’t believe how long it took me to realize “my planet needs me” was a Simpsons reference

Bunny is better than Bliss because of the original PPG creator.
Knowing the Simpsons, this scene is predicting how the show itself is finally going to go off the air.
It will go out with a whimper, not a bang.
@@Attmay It should have ended in 2000.
Simpsons was “meta” before Disney owned it. Now they’ll never let it die. And if they do it’ll never be as gracefully as poochie left us. All the evidence you need is that every few months they find a way to churn out some Star Wars related animated maggie simpson adventure. I used to hope beyond hope that Disney would let the simpsons die when the main cast do, now that they have a voiceless figurehead they’ll never stop peddling simpsons tie-ins.
"We have to go now. Our planet needs us."
Note: The Simpsons died on the way back to their home planet.
The Poochie cel being removed reminds me of the homeless guy being replaced with a mailbox in the Scorpio episode during the Globex community promo.

I like how even the lawyer is smiling when the kids start cheering.
If that's not the laziest way to kill off a character, I don't know what is.
You misspelled 'best'
That's the joke.
I love this kind of animation. They didn't even bother to render it up or cut him out from the layer. They have just slide it up, make a photo of it for every frame and they even decide to keep the border for the last frame even when pochi was out of the scene already.
I swear to god, Simpsons season 2-9 was something else.
Brynden Blackfish why.
They should never have had Poochie as a main character. If he was a supporting character, he could have worked. His whole exit also demonstrates the lack of professionalism in executives.
They should have made Poochie violent, like Itchy and Scratchy. That would have worked.
@@anglobostonian Whenever Poochie's not on screen, all the other characters should be asking, "Where's Poochie?"
Actually, the original idea was for him to be evil, rich and violent, like Mr. Burns!
Yep, but Homer refused to take on that role unless they change his personality. That's how Poochie got similar traits to Otto in having a surfer's attitude and plays guitar. Homer didn't want to voice him being an evil money grubbing boss due to him having to deal with Mr. Burns on a daily basis at the Power Plant.
I think the main problem Poochie had was that the '90s were still going on when this episode aired, so even though he was cool people didn't appreciate him because of that. If he'd debuted after the Great Recession started, there would have been much more of a market for '90s nostalgia.

No idea who that is. Did he play Herb?
@@chrisw6164 One word: BKTV
The best part is that they didn't even need Homer to animate him leaving.
Yeah I like to imagine that they actually did go ahead and animate the version with Homer's monologue but then Roger Meyer got cold feet at the absolute last minute and changed it.
Lol my planet needs me whoooooooooop
I remember dying laughing when the Poochie animation cell just lifts up out of frame 25 years ago….. shame the Simpsons will never be the same again
They hated him so much, that they didn't even bother animating him out of frame.
They just lifted the still-frame _off the backdrop_
RIP POOCHIE
God bless you. Sadly, Krusty and those kids don't agree with your respects.
