Support Matthew Gafford and this incredible series! www.patreon.com/AFoxInSpace www.youtube.com/@AFoxinSpace This is a project I've been working on for a few weeks, finally got it converted from the VHS back to my computer and uploaded it here! This is a concept video I thought up after watching the second episode of A Fox in Space. It's basically "What if" scenario where the second episode premiered on Adult Swim in 2006. Some changes include: -Custom Bumpers -Commercials (Spot the Star Fox one ;) ) -Censored curse words -Adult Swim logo and TV-14 rating added to the episode Let me you what you guys think, thank you for watching!
God the editing on this is so perfect. The added commercials between the acts add so much to the experience. Brings back memories of me sneakily watching Adult Swim as a kid in the 2000’s.
I didn't have to sneak to watch this, my family was like the TV series Shameless, so as long I didn't bother anyone, I could watch. This brings back some good memories
Nah he really mess with filters. I mean it doesn’t need to be so blurry and stuff. I know not all remembered tv from 00s but it wasn’t that bad. Ok you can say it just videotape record, but gosh make it at least enjoyable to watch. I remembered some channels about it, they do it correctly. When you say perfect - you actually didn’t watch fully, right? You some of this guys.
Such a cool vibe. Fox In Space already feels like a completely forgotten gem that would air late at night, so watching it this way feels authentic in an odd way- also, love the effort you put into bumpers and stuff, absolutely elite video!
this is the most impressive "nostalgic" edits of any media. visual and audio edits are spot on as well as the media used in context. fucking tight dude
I have this on my Watch Later playlist and one night fell asleep on the couch and woke up to this. It really felt like one of those fever dream moments of when you were little and woke up to whatever was on adult swim back in the day.
Back in the day, dvds and tivo was still new and Comcast was the best the standard household had to offer. We had to use a VCR for that time. Regardless of time era
People were using VHS tapes all the way up till like 2008/2010, I remember using them as a kid until Netflix blew up and got it's own subscription channel (and eventually it's own app when Apple, etc got big). Some of the tapes here are used from the 80s, so maybe that could be why it feels older.
Nah brother tapes were still being used at the 2006 mark. I had tons of tapes I recorded off of adult swim late night and this is exactly what it was like no lie.
my family personally still had a vhs player until 2007 as are only media playing device. only reason we finally got a dvd player was because they started getting cheap enough for my family to get one but also are local video rental place started phasing out vhs tapes all together and so was the industry as a whole. most big new releases we wanted to see just never came out on vhs and we would have to borrow my brothers ps2 to even watch dvds. so finally we got a dvd player of are own along with a buncha 1 dollar dvds that just had like a buncha public domain cartoons and old black and white movies but still i watched the shit out of those. now as an adult in my 30s i still have a vhs idk why but there is just something about this lil device that even now in this age of crystal clear quality i just keep coming back to it. i even got a old analog tv that looks just like my childhood one to go with.
You know I thought I would just glance at this. Maybe use the timestamps to skip to the commercials for a quick laugh. I watched the whole thing. This was perfectly paced, the commercial breaks and everything. You spent a lot of your precious, finite time on this Earth making this. And for such a small amount of people who could truly appreciate it. For that I salute you, sir (I'm assuming pronouns here)! Also it it super frustrating all these doofuses in the comments bitching that the quality is too low. Cleary these young'uns don't know that if the VHS is really old and recorded at SLP it can indeed look this chewed up. Like I said, only a few people in the world will truly appreciate this thing you edited together. For what it's worth, I feel like this was tailor-made just for me. I am smack-dab in the center of the Venn diagram of people this was made for: Star Fox fans, fans of Matthew Gaffords little parody series, Adult Swim fans, and elder Millennials who couldn't afford a Tivo in '06 but still had a VCR and bunch of frequently used tapes.
The hilarious thing is that the irony of Wolf worrying that Fara's dad hooking her up with a "dandy cadet" ended up being a self-fufilling prophecy as he left her and then, because he was a great guy (and kinda an excellent match for her) when he grew up, she ended up hooking up with "Dandy Cadet" Fox McCloud.
the bumps you made for this are great, fitting both the adult swim vibe and tying into star fox/a fox in space. i’d love to see a clean version of those or this whole video so i could get a version without much generation loss onto a vhs. love this man it’s a treat to watch. edit: also you picked out really fitting commercials for that time period and also also really appreciate the fact you actually transferred it to tape and back. tape artifacts are almost impossible for a computer to do and it always slightly distracts me.
Whether intentional or not, this footage tells a story. Not just of a television series, but it also tells us a little about the person who recorded it. You see, by 2006, VCR's were seen as an absolute joke. Cheap DVD players were everywhere, and the best way the average joe could record footage was with a TiVO. And yes, a lot of people had TiVO's, they've just been forgotten by time. If you were recording with a VCR by this point in time, you were either behind the times, or from a lower income family.
That honestly takes me back, I remember back in the late 2000s, my aunts used to record tv episodes for me and my sister and cousin. One of my aunts recorded a few episodes of star wars the clone wars back when it used to air on CN, this was around 2008 to 2009, we still liked using their vhs players to watch old movies and cartoons even though we'd also use their dvd player. Even so, if it was an incredibly outdated media format (especially before the turn of the 2010's) it's still really cool.
My family was neither low-income nor behind the times. We just never got a TiVO because we didn't record enough, so VHSes were still pretty normal for a long time. Helps that we also didn't watch a lot of TV, so we'd just record movies we liked. I had a lot of Walking With Dinosaurs specials on VHS, and I'd watch them in one of those fancy VHS/DVD combo machines.
You hit the nail on the quality - I remember when I started to record VHS tapes as far back as 2007, so it looks just like how it would. Mad respect and props to you, NUTDOG! And great kudos to Matthew Gafford aka Fred for making such an excellent series.
I used the same TV with the built VCR I would record stuff with around the same time, glad I’m not the only one who gets the special nostalgic feel this gives 😊
Damn, what brand of tapes were you using? I have dozens of old recordings from the 80s that held up pretty well. Well, I guess the VCR quality could effect the recording quality too. They definitely had crap quality VCRs on the 00s.
@@LikaLaruku Back then the ones I had were from the 80s and 00s. I’ve found obviously the older they are the more grain and distortion you’ll get. My current vcr probably needs a cleaning too, hasn’t had one in awhile
AFIS feels like something you would have seen on MTV in the early 90s, along with Heavy Metal, Rock & Rule, Wizards, American Pop, Time Masters, Fire & Ice, Starchaser: The Legend of Orin, Felix the Cat the Movie, Gandahar, etc.
I feel like VHS is the video equivalent to audio junkies who collect vinyl saying "You don't understand. The distortion and dust pops add character to the album!" except now I understand it. The bumps, commercials, and audio/video tearing just add to this.
This is an incredible edit, actually enhances the original and the experience so that I'm happy to sit through ads Would love to see EP1 get the same treatment
Adult Swim was reusing a lot of older cartoon assets in the early 2000s to invoke nostalgia in the 20-30 something year olds. That and they had access to everything from those old cartoons thanks to Ted Turner swiping them all up for Cartoon Network. So it was more of a nostalgia network than people remember. lol
This is surreal. I remember 2009, I was 10. Even young, I had a knack for staying up late during the summer. Assuming my grandfather's room was free (he only occasionally slept there) I would stay cooped up drawing there and would put on the TV. Sun would go down and I'd switch over from Nick to Disney, watch Replacements reruns til it was 2 o'clock. I would always have to pass through the Cartoon Network channel between the two though, and I'd find myself for a little bit tuned into Adult Swim. For being so young, I always found the channel uncanny, I won't lie. I think I was scarred from a bad Robot Chicken episode. So while I never got into it, I always remembered how Adult Swim felt. So looking back at this now, at 2 AM my time early summer morning, this genuinely takes me back to the feeling of watching that mid 2000s 4:3 television (complete with the ads and bumpers and everything!) , where now, ironically, the uncanny feels comforting. I've always thought about what it would be like to go back to the 2000s, knowing what I know now, with what I've learned, etc. And stuff like this is the closest I think I'll ever come. And in that way, even if AFiS was never a show that ended up on late night television in those Bush era years, this is almost like a time capsule. Keep it saved should anything ever happen to it. I don't want this to become lost media one day.
Well... as a video tech whose job was to make sure product never looked like this, it makes me absolutely insane. Replace the caps, clean the heads, adjust the tracking.
Okay, i downloaded this, put on a usb drive and play it on tv to sleep more or less every night. And i kid you not i legit forgot theres a hd actual episode with no commercials that i waited what, like 6 years to come out
Now isn't this a way to generate nostalgia Man this brings me back yet reflects modern day This really could of been made in that time and would have fit perfectly in Wonderful work.
This is the greatest video I’ve ever watched. Kudos, you nailed this one. It makes me wish for a time and place that never existed. This show would have been perfect in a early Adult Swim world. Fantastic work.
The long reference to the Star Fox 64 promotional video was so well done that I didn't even catch it until it was pointed out to me. This edit makes it look a lot more like the version of that old clip that made it to RUclips. Such a great animation with so many little details!
reminds me of the times I'd sneakily recording adult swim stuff on the livingroom vcr that aired way past my bedtime lol regarding the quality, while borderline *too* low, it looks more authentic than most VHS filters in most software. all the other special touches def add to it
What a coinkydink, I too had the idea of making a fake VHS capture of A Fox In Space for fun. (although it would be for my own fictional TV station and not Adult Swim lol). I don't have access to genuine tapes and equipment like you, but even just messing around with ntscQT and Audacity really gives you a new perspective on whatever you're doing it on. I really hope technology "progresses" far enough to the point where we can make authentic VHS "tapes" purely on software. As for this "tape", it's beautiful. As a big fan of Star Fox and everything having to do with low budget/underground animation, AFIS is like pure uncut cocaine for me; this is like that but on steroids. Magnificent, perfect, all the adjectives you like here. Can't get enough of it.
awh I miss leaving the tv on to wake up randomly to cool shit like this haha. It's too bad Nintendo is too anal to allow something like this on adult swim. Matthew def. has the skills for it
This is my first notion of this series, I had no idea it existed (nintendo allowed this?) I really love it and your edit seemed so convincing that I'm going to see it all!
Good editing, especially with the commercials and bumpers! But when it comes to replicating VHS artifacts and sound, this looks and sounds like it was recorded on one hell of a worn out VHS tape on the lowest speed of the VCR, especially for 2006 lol
This is a funny novelty, especially the period accurate commercials. I'll definitely have to watch through these at least once. The distortion is ridiculous though. I haven't used a VHS recorder in like 10 years, but it wasn't nearly as bad as this. The audio is frankly way too muffled as well. VHS tapes and 480p weren't THAT bad lmao. Was this just a filter or did you use some dying VHS player?
Yes, this was recorded to a real tape! It was a mix between the tape being recorded over several times as well as being an older tape, and the VCR I used is pretty old (it’s one that’s attached to a CRT, same one I’ve had since 2000!). The audio was actually edited after words by me, originally the audio was not as muffled, but the biggest reason why I changed it was because the original audio had a very loud high pitch whine and I wanted to lower it a bit, it was driving me crazy, lmao. I’m thinking of making a behind the scenes video if you want me to go more into detail.
@@NutHusky Yeah definitely a behind the scenes video would be interesting. Also you made the right choice if there was some weird feedback. That would have been much worse to hear lol.
Ngl, I used to stay up every saturday night waiting desparately for certain anime to come on, like FLCL and Cowboy Bebop, just so i could record them on VHS. I even mastered the science of programming the VCR to record at a set time, down to the moment when commercials were on so I didn't record commercials needlessly. This takes me back to that time....

This is a project I've been working on for a few weeks, finally got it converted from the VHS back to my computer and uploaded it here! This is a concept video I thought up after watching the second episode of A Fox in Space. It's basically "What if" scenario where the second episode premiered on Adult Swim in 2006.
Some changes include:
-Custom Bumpers
-Commercials (Spot the Star Fox one ;) )
-Censored curse words
-Adult Swim logo and TV-14 rating added to the episode
Let me you what you guys think, thank you for watching!
Do you plan to make a video with both episodes like this?
Damn you did better than me excellent work 😂
Don't forget www.twitch.tv/afoxinspaceshow
I adore this so much. Great job on this edit
why 2006? did you already have a tape from 2006 and used that for your commercials?
20:05 “New episode every six years”
Bruh 😂
God the editing on this is so perfect. The added commercials between the acts add so much to the experience. Brings back memories of me sneakily watching Adult Swim as a kid in the 2000’s.
Also the convenient bleeps when some of the characters curse.

"March 26, 2006, this episode premiered."
But the tape vibes make it feel like it's from the '90s c:
I was thinking that too. More like 1996 lol
Back in the day, dvds and tivo was still new and Comcast was the best the standard household had to offer. We had to use a VCR for that time. Regardless of time era

Star Fox. On Adult Swim. In an alternate timeline.
All its missing is me flipping the channel for a second then flipping back
A FOX IN SPACE
New episodes every six years
Ouch....
Hey considering how much detail and effort the original creator puts in these. I say it worth the wait
I will wait as long as it takes.
Worth it though.

Can't wait to see this again but with Matthew's own series, The Violence
I plan on doing that as well when it comes out!
"Did they really come here on a scooter?" Is still such a perfect line for Peppy

Hell yeah, dude! If you can, watch “The Head”. It has that same feel. It was part of MTv’s Oddities and it was such a treat to watch late at night.
This borders the line on unironically deserving an Oscar in Editing.

This is an incredible edit, actually enhances the original and the experience so that I'm happy to sit through ads
Would love to see EP1 get the same treatment
The editing makes this look like it's from the mid-late 80's. Audio/video compression wasn't this bad in 2006 lol but year aside, this is fantastic

love to see ep 1 too

"New episode every six years" LMFAO
its like you ripped this out of a timeline that i would actually enjoy to live in...
32:25 oh my god the acid flashback you just unleashed upon me with the music they used to use in those bumps from days of old.
You've elevated this to an even higher art than it previously was
Wolf's voice through a vhs filter makes it 100 times sexier
This looks so dope. Nice editing and it feels like an Adult Swim Series from the 2000s.
I do feel like the real thing would have an ad for The Jewelry Exchange.
This is a really cool edit, definitely makes it seem older.
This is amazing! It solidifies the late-night adult swim feel the original version has. Love the bumpers too!!! 👍❤
Okay, i downloaded this, put on a usb drive and play it on tv to sleep more or less every night. And i kid you not i legit forgot theres a hd actual episode with no commercials that i waited what, like 6 years to come out
Love the way this was done! Feels so authentic. Excellent editing.
Now isn't this a way to generate nostalgia
Man this brings me back yet reflects modern day
This really could of been made in that time and would have fit perfectly in
Wonderful work.
Damn. You are clever. My hat is tipped to you.
32:25 holy shit it even has the best bump song
They played it all the time back then when showing the schedules. It was pretty much a staple of old Adult Swim.
THE BUMPER MUSICCCC!!! Wow. This is SO good, man! Thank you
"new episode every six years"
lmao
I didn't think I could love this more, but now I do! this is gonna be like my 6th rewatch
(Pauses video right after the Skittles commercial to get some Skittles then resumes) This is brilliant.
This is the greatest video I’ve ever watched. Kudos, you nailed this one.
It makes me wish for a time and place that never existed. This show would have been perfect in a early Adult Swim world.
Fantastic work.
I got quite emotional watching this. Thank you.
The vcr staticky effect fits very well, awesome you made this.
....i was skeptical at first but damn....you really nailed it XD alright dude this was good.
this is an awesome edit. Thank you
Yo, This is pretty cool! Nice job.
The comercails and stuff added make this a tri for me. Bro's got me feeling like i'm 13 again. I miss this stuff :( I'm so sad now.
This is goddang amazing
I've already put this episode into my Adult Swim Material playlist. But, for the hell of it, this is worthy of it.
this is amazing. thank you.
lol'd so hard at "new episode every six years"
how exceptionally well made
I always said AFIS belonged on classic Adult Swim and here it is! Great job! I feel like I'm 12 again lol
damn this is so well done
"A Fox in Space, New episode every six years." Yeah, that seems about right! XD
This is fantastic
The long reference to the Star Fox 64 promotional video was so well done that I didn't even catch it until it was pointed out to me. This edit makes it look a lot more like the version of that old clip that made it to RUclips. Such a great animation with so many little details!

Matt Gafford was gonna call it Star Fox but had to change the name to A Fox in Space because of Nintendo.
I need more of this type of gaslighting lol
It's like im watching Fox in Space episode 2 on my old sylvania. This is so cool.
This is so well edited!
That adult swim ad feels real XD.
Oh gawd, so on point! XD Job well done with the edits. ;D
Good editing, especially with the commercials and bumpers! But when it comes to replicating VHS artifacts and sound, this looks and sounds like it was recorded on one hell of a worn out VHS tape on the lowest speed of the VCR, especially for 2006 lol
That’s because it was, I used a real VHS tape lmao
@@NutHusky Lol, oh my! The ol' soldier held up and made this possible. Now that's as real as real gets!
Yooooo that background buzzing. Taking me back a while holy shit
Dude this awesome, this really does feel like 2006 adult swim.
I don't remember it being this grainy on TV in 2006 but maybe as a re-recorded VHS (im not old)
20:05 Lol "New episode every six years"
so cool, I hope you can do it also with episode 1!
Holy shit Squirrel Boy at the beginning, that's a deep cut
Now this is awesome!
This is a funny novelty, especially the period accurate commercials. I'll definitely have to watch through these at least once.
The distortion is ridiculous though. I haven't used a VHS recorder in like 10 years, but it wasn't nearly as bad as this. The audio is frankly way too muffled as well. VHS tapes and 480p weren't THAT bad lmao.
Was this just a filter or did you use some dying VHS player?
Yes, this was recorded to a real tape!
It was a mix between the tape being recorded over several times as well as being an older tape, and the VCR I used is pretty old (it’s one that’s attached to a CRT, same one I’ve had since 2000!).
The audio was actually edited after words by me, originally the audio was not as muffled, but the biggest reason why I changed it was because the original audio had a very loud high pitch whine and I wanted to lower it a bit, it was driving me crazy, lmao.
I’m thinking of making a behind the scenes video if you want me to go more into detail.
@@NutHusky Yeah definitely a behind the scenes video would be interesting.
Also you made the right choice if there was some weird feedback. That would have been much worse to hear lol.

Carlo: Shaddup an’ eat your (bleep)in’ fazool!
I can’t wait for episode 3 coming soon when Matthew will bring some character like Krystal, Leon gang, and some other characters.
Soon as in like 4 years from now.
New episode every six years 😂😂😂😢😢😢
"New episode every six years"
Oh man, I remember those commercials. It was like 5 years ago.
This is perfect
this is art
Ngl, I used to stay up every saturday night waiting desparately for certain anime to come on, like FLCL and Cowboy Bebop, just so i could record them on VHS. I even mastered the science of programming the VCR to record at a set time, down to the moment when commercials were on so I didn't record commercials needlessly. This takes me back to that time....
At first I was like "wait a fucking minute, Gafford had this mostly done way back then? No reasonable damn way."
Then I saw 2006. Six. Not 2016.
240p for the authenticity.
Only thing missing from this is the era-appropriate commercial breaks
This took me back to high school.
I demande more content like this
Holy shit this is on AS? Wow, come a long way
amazing
