Get the PBG x Arthur Youtoos while you still can! ► youtooz.com/products/peanutbuttergamer-x-arthur Thanks so much for watching! (I know I need a hair cut.)
Yeah I hate it when cartoons don’t make the celebrity cameos match the art style of the regular characters. They’re so weird to look at and Arthur has to be the biggest offender.
Yeah, i even felt the same way about how they did John Lewis, as Peebs pointed out. When they do these "real-life celebrity cameos" (not just a celebrity playing an in-universe character like in BJ Novak or Idina Menzel's case) it always felt uncanny to me.
Aardvark Matt Damon is one of the strangest ideas I’ve ever seen executed in cartoon. Like who on earth thought little kids would recognize a real life celebrity in a kids show like that, because me and my friends sure didn’t
The reason the Backstreet Boys episode is so obscure/hard to find is becuase PBS couldn't afford to keep paying residuals to them for using their music.
Arthur crossovers are so wild, it gave my parents something to point at the screen and go "Hey it's Southpark" while my clueless self sits there absolutely confused lmfao
Someone asked him on tumblr (to those who haven't heard yes, he has a tumblr) to "explain" a screenshot of him in the Arthur crossover sitting in the food and he explained nothing lol My theory is that he suggested the weird introduction though, bc it somehow suits his sense of humor
It was technically 2007. But on the subject of the "It's Only Rock and Roll" special from five years earlier, it was supposedly never shown as a rerun after 2002. Until it aired as part of the "Arthur Mega Marathon" in February of 2022 as a promotion of the final four episodes of the series.
The weirdest part of Matt Damon's design is that his hair forms around wear his ears would normally be as a human, but he had top of the head animal ears, so he just has weird ear shaped spaces of flesh/fur on the side of his head.
Fr, even some of the other character designs aren't this weird looking. I think the designs should teeter on "not too human, but still looks like the person you're portraying".
@@chrisrockett5897 They needed to lean into making caricatures of the people more rather than just superimposing their face onto an Arthur-style creature.
What I find interesting about the Lance Armstrong episodes is they didn't just pull them from syndication since the doping scandal. Instead they edited one of the later ones to replace him with a fictional athlete and had some of the characters redub their lines when they weren't on screen (and thus couldn't see their mouths didn't match the words).
They didn't just edit him out. They redid the entire episode. The animation is in the newer style, and they couldn't just have the mis-matching styles, so they just did everything again. The characters with different voice actors were re-dubbed, and I'm not entirely sure if any recordings were reused from the original episode, but it wouldn't surprise me. What people fail to mention is that the fictional athlete is *_UNCLE SLAM._* I had heard online for years that they remade the episode with a fictional athlete, and I figured they just made up some random guy. They had a big Arthur marathon on PBS during the leadup to the final season of the show, and I happened to see the new version of the episode. My jaw hit the floor when it turned out to be Uncle Slam. So freaking cool that they were able to take a recurring character like that and naturally weave him into the story. I have a lot of gripes with modern Arthur, but that was fantastic.
Honestly based I think? Like, that shows more dedication to _not_ supporting him than to just ban the episodes outright and leave his name on them permanently. Otherwise it would be a complete waste to have it exist in the first place I am against censorship but at the same time, I don't consider that censorship
@@safebox36 Can't find any evidence of that, but it wouldn't surprise me. They _did_ have other episodes with a Lance parody "Vance Legstrong" but I don't think he was ever a part of any Great MacGrady edit.
It'll never cease to amuse me whenever cartoons depict celebrity guests with these more realistic, overly-detailed faces that are at complete odds with the show's usual simpler character designs. You'll just be watching The Flintstones and then, all of a sudden, WHAM, a walking caricature of someone who was probably a big deal in the 60s pops up! It's so bizarre. Also, Francine's band dissolving after becoming successful at the end of that Backstreet Boys movie is one of the most blatant instances of "PRESERVE THE STATUS QUO!!!!" I have ever seen.
I kinda get it for some of Scooby-Doo's later crossovers since the character designs actually lend to the characters looking more realistic. I only slightly had a problem with it during Scoobynatural, but only then only slightly.
My favorite Arthur crossover was definitely the Christmas episode featuring Kim Jong Un and Putin having a bare knuckle fight to raise money for charity.
Actually the "Arthur" version of Matt Damon actually seems more like a bear to me? Because aardvarks in "Arthur" don't even have pink noses like he clearly does.
I remember they did knockoff of Series of Unfortunate Events books on the show, where Fern was inspired to write by the series and asked the writer for help on how to be a successful writer. Its one of the few episodes I really remember
I can't believe there's an Arthur episode that not only has Matt Damon in it, but reveals the whole show we've been watching the entire time was filmed and written by him in the show itself. Truly mind blowing and I love it.
The one episode of Arthur with a guest character I hold the most nostalgia for is the one with Mr. Rogers. I grew up watching a lot of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, so seeing in Arthur, and being voiced by the legend himself, Mr. Rogers, made it all the more nostalgia for me.
Did u see the neighbourhood episode where Arthur was the main feature of the episode, from Fred bringing an Arthur plushie to that plushie hanging out with the neighbourhood of make believe and then Fred taking it the Mac Brown's studio where he also meets the original voice actor for Arthur (Mac's son)? After their appearance on their shows, they kept in touch over phone until Fred's death and Mac even attended Fred's funeral in Pittsburgh
Honestly, it's the guest stars, parodies, and utterly bizarre jokes are what makes Arthur so watchable even as an adult, which also explains its longevity on television. It's both nice and wholesome and utterly UNHINGED at the same time. I'll never not love Arthur
The Backstreet Boys crossover should've ended with Arthur and the gang becoming complete pariahs of the music scene for ruining a concert and wasting everyones' time and money, meanwhile Muffy gets arrested and sued for kidnapping. That would've been comedy gold.
That woulda been funny as shit minus Muffy getting outright arrested (since she's 8 and all). I want Ed to get sue'd instead and have Muffy getting held accountable because of it.
I love that Peebs finally got to cover the Matt Damon episode, considering Peebs was sourced multiple times in the RUclips Poop collab duology made for that specific episode(especially the second one)
As a BSB fan myself, I’m glad you finally talked about that episode. I’ve seen the other crossovers and parodies as well. The Mr. Rogers is very nostalgic for me as I grew up watching him as a child.
Considering the UK doesn't have PBS and i only heard of it from the Simpsons, most shows that came from that channel were on other UK based channels such as BBC,POP, ITV, Channel 4, etc. Arthur was airing on CBBC (Childrens BBC) i remember reading a few books and the children talking about books was cut
We had Arthur on Nickelodeon too, albeit as part of a CBBC segment (yes, there was a CBBC segment on Nickelodeon). And yeah, we didn't have the "And Now a Word From us Kids" thing, I don't think - the first I heard of it was on PBG's videos.
In defense of Francine's singing, she is heard solo singing back in To Beat or Not To Beat, the song is You Can Fly If You Try on YT and its pretty good. When it comes to the movie itself, I did really enjoy it despite finding Muffy insufferable, espicially with her crushing on him like that. It was also nice to see Fern take the spotlight as I am currently doing a watchthrough/rewatch of the series thanks to your vids, she has become one of my favourite characters alongside Sue Ellen. My favourite moment of the episode is when Fern says she got a "Ferb" card, as all it makes me think is Ferb Fletcher. Also, loved the RTÉ News cameo, did not expect to see that.
It's always been weird to me how the earlier Arthur guest-stars were actually stylized to fit seamlessly into Arthur's world. Mr Rogers, Art Garfunkel, Alex Trebek-- they all look great. Then we get to the Backstreet Boys, Matt Damon, that senator, and all of them are horrifying... like Buster's dad from Postcards with Buster. Also the Matt Damon episode is just one of like 3 or 4 supposed backstories for the actual Arthur show. The Matt one is one of the weirdest and it's just really funny how it all plays out. I prefer the one where the gang are young adults and decide to make their own show after they lose the cartoon contest. The finale, which I assume is the canon ending, is also pretty good. Arthur making visual novels about his childhood make a lot more sense and would even explain the artstyle of the show as well. Arthur probably isn't an aardvark irl. We just saw everyone through the lens of adult Arthur's imagination. And he snuck in some jokes about the imaginary animal species he made everybody.
The senator was John Lewis. He was a key figure in the civil rights movement, but yeah his design was way too detailed. Speaking of, remember when Buster's dad had a slightly simpler design?
Oh man. Arthur went there! I definitely do have fond memories of this show but it had some strange episodes for sure! lol! Good job on your review! Wild nostalgia trip!
This video caused me great emotional distress 😅 I *was* Muffy in the 90s, being an 8 year old girl madly in love with the Backstreet Boys. That childhood nostalgia then morphed into intense panic as you began to talk about Oberyn versus the Mountain as my kids sat eating dinner and I greatly feared the clip being shown 😂 so thanks for the roller coaster!
I only liked 4 guest appearances on arthur. Yo mama and joshua redmond because they had artistic insight to impart with the episodes approach to different genres of music. Art garfunkel because it never brought attention to his celebrity and his design felt so in tune with the arthur universe that it blended in seamlessly, it was like the early seasons of king of the hill when they hired celebrity voices but they actually played characters instead of turning it into a worship fest like modern animation does (except forthe willie Nelson episode). And mister rogers because he's mister rogers.
Part of me wants to throw What's Cooking (Ming Tsai's guest episode) in the mix because of the lesson of "some of the greatest inventions and foods come from mistakes". I dunno, I just thought it was neat.
earliest arrival to PBG ever for me, I'm sure you enjoy reading this exact comment 100's of times, I agree with that person saying 2:49 felt like an edit lol. Thanks for the video!
One of the best cameos was Taj Mahal and Coco Taylor it got me into the blues. It's funny tho after that episode I got a Taj mahal cd as a kid and one of the first songs goes "This next song is a funny little song About snow in the desert Champagne don't drive me crazy Cocaine don't make me lazy Ain't nobody's business but my own Candy is dandy and liquor is quicker You can drink all the liquor down at Costa Rica Ain't nobody's business but my own" It's one of my favorite songs ever- thanks Arthur!!!
Watching the Taj Mahal/Coco Taylor episode also made me realize that Taj was the one who sung the intro to Peep and the Big Wide World, which is ANOTHER show produced by WGBH.
@@JL0ndon I never realized either until I looked it up. Also, small pet peeve about the intro, but I'm still salty that it ended with "it's a big wide world and it's waiting for me and you" instead of "it's waiting for YOU and ME ". Shit coulda been perfect if they swapped those two words around.
As a kid, I also grew up without cable and spent much of the 2000s watching PBS Kids. I saw the Backstreet Boys referenced on Arthur and on Clifford the Big Red Dog, but I never saw real images or footage of them, not even a poster. So for the longest time, I thought they were a myth like Bigfoot.
As someone who just saw Arthur a little bit before I aged out of it, I am constantly endeared by his man's abiding love for a cartoon I never thought much of... though I will say that as someone who remembers Backstreet fever, Muffy's reactions are perhaps frightening- but not out of the ordinary. Not one bit...
There were soooooooo many. Michelle kwan,Batman yes Batman Was on there like twice Art garfunkel, Alex trebeck,the friggin backstreet Boys, even celebrities we've never Heard of. Even Mr rogers was there.
I will still never forget when they had Backstreet Boys on the show. I remember that they titled it "It's Only Rock and Roll," but Backstreet Boys were more a Pop Music Group than a Rock Band, so I never did understand the title. LMAO.
Yooo, sounds fun. I still watch it sometimes, haha. Especially the early seasons. A lot of nostalgia, but it's also just good. I put it on for my daughter sometimes, hoping she'll like it when she's old enough to know what's going on.
That ending with them breaking up the band for seemingly no reason feels like a classic case of a movie needing to end on a note that doesn't contradict the show. In other words, they needed things to go back to the way they were before the movie started for the sake of it making sense when going back to the show that likely wouldn't be acknowledging the movie at all.
I remember seeing a later season episode where I think there was a subplot where Brain goes to a therapist who was voiced by Idina Menzel, some time after Frozen came out.

Sorry can't I don't have enough
“So do you want Matt Damon to look like Matt Damon or like an Arthur character?”
“No”
He looks like a Joel Haver style rotoscoped Arthur character Matt Damon.
Yeah I hate it when cartoons don’t make the celebrity cameos match the art style of the regular characters. They’re so weird to look at and Arthur has to be the biggest offender.
I love it when memes get subverted

I do like how adult Arthur looks kind of like PBG. It's like even they know how big of a fan he is.
Fun fact: They actually reanimated “The Great Macgrady” years later and replaced Lance Armstrong with an original character (Uncle Slam)
I also remember them re-dubbing "Lance Armstrong" to "Vance Legstrong" at one point too.
@@spyrofrost9158 Pretty sure that was actually a parody character
That was dumb

"Matt Damon."-Matt Damon
It was for the adults and the teens who had to watch it when we were young.
All of the characters could have been humans since they don't have tails and that one scene where Arthur doesn't even put headphones on his ear.
Schaffrillas Productions is going to kill you for this!
I remember when I watched that episode with my family my mom noticed he had two sets of ears...

earliest arrival to PBG ever for me, I'm sure you enjoy reading this exact comment 100's of times, I agree with that person saying 2:49 felt like an edit lol. Thanks for the video!
3:56 Mrs. Magrady: Well you know what they say honey…
Dr. Eggman: THE MORE THE MERRIER!
"Arthur it's only rock 'n' roll" is available to watch on the internet archive actually.
I was not expecting you to use RTE news as your example for Lance Armstrong XDDD
I don't know who that is, hopefully it's nothing controversial, LOL. It was just the most precise audio clip I could find to describe the situation.
The most unlikely crossover was with the RUclipsr PeanutButterGamer. I'm still can't believe it's real.
Me neither.
One of the best cameos was Taj Mahal and Coco Taylor it got me into the blues. It's funny tho after that episode I got a Taj mahal cd as a kid and one of the first songs goes "This next song is a funny little song
About snow in the desert
Champagne don't drive me crazy
Cocaine don't make me lazy
Ain't nobody's business but my own
Candy is dandy and liquor is quicker
You can drink all the liquor down at Costa Rica
Ain't nobody's business but my own"
It's one of my favorite songs ever- thanks Arthur!!!
Watching the Taj Mahal/Coco Taylor episode also made me realize that Taj was the one who sung the intro to Peep and the Big Wide World, which is ANOTHER show produced by WGBH.
@chrisrockett5897 someone at wgbh had good taste it seems. I never realized he did the theme song for peep
@@JL0ndon I never realized either until I looked it up. Also, small pet peeve about the intro, but I'm still salty that it ended with "it's a big wide world and it's waiting for me and you" instead of "it's waiting for YOU and ME ". Shit coulda been perfect if they swapped those two words around.
As a kid, I also grew up without cable and spent much of the 2000s watching PBS Kids. I saw the Backstreet Boys referenced on Arthur and on Clifford the Big Red Dog, but I never saw real images or footage of them, not even a poster. So for the longest time, I thought they were a myth like Bigfoot.
What's hilarious is imdb says Arthur, It's Only Rock and Roll is a 7.8/10
Oh snap I remember the Backstreet boys special!!!
As someone who just saw Arthur a little bit before I aged out of it, I am constantly endeared by his man's abiding love for a cartoon I never thought much of... though I will say that as someone who remembers Backstreet fever, Muffy's reactions are perhaps frightening- but not out of the ordinary. Not one bit...
"You have to stop listening to this rot! It's destroying your brain!" that's extremely funny
I went from knowing nothing about Arthur crossovers to all there is to know
There were soooooooo many.
Michelle kwan,Batman yes Batman
Was on there like twice Art garfunkel,
Alex trebeck,the friggin backstreet
Boys, even celebrities we've never
Heard of.
Even Mr rogers was there.
@@nehemiahpouncey3607Wait, when was Batman on there? Hopefully you aren't talking about Dark Bunny.
10:32 Ahh, It's just like that one scene in Bojack Horseman
That scene's a parody of Charlie Rose.
I love how my mind instantly went to the clip of Team America, then a second later it was used.
Arthur has crossovers? Did I know or did I care? No. Why am I here? I'm not sure, but here I am, and I'm glad.
Kinda? They're more like homages.
Muffy legit tried to kidnap a celebrity for extortion
Having never watched an episode of Arthur. This is WILD
4:42 people when they see brainrot:
12:39 knowing that this is a SpongeBob reference makes me realise how much I keep rewatching childhood cartoons😭
RTE News making a cameo in a PBG video??!!
yeah that really caught me off guard too
Happy Fathers Day, Austin.
“You can tell Smiley Man he’ll never eat lunch in this town again”
I will still never forget when they had Backstreet Boys on the show. I remember that they titled it "It's Only Rock and Roll," but Backstreet Boys were more a Pop Music Group than a Rock Band, so I never did understand the title. LMAO.
Same here - I honestly felt kind of cheated
It's titled that because of Fern and Francine's plot.
Kid Danger: *wearing his mighty pup movie outfit* huh? *has a ? over his head*
You really don’t need to do this everywhere 😅
I'm binged-watching Arthur this week!
Yooo, sounds fun. I still watch it sometimes, haha. Especially the early seasons. A lot of nostalgia, but it's also just good. I put it on for my daughter sometimes, hoping she'll like it when she's old enough to know what's going on.
I didn't know there was a Backstreet Boys X Arthur crossover
I didn’t knew when I was little in 2009-10 Arthur was the goat.
"They submit the footage of Arthur doing random things to Matt Damon" 💀
I got your last Youtooz and now I got the Arthur one too
Yay, thank you! :)
10/10 for a tasteful DIO theme and Smiling Friends sound clip
Man is no longer a gaming/game related RUclipsr… but an author RUclipsr now fr fr
10:45 despite being very much an adult, i bursted laughing
7:01 After watching that ID docuseries about Nick Carter, I wouldn't let him be around, near, and in any girls.
That ending with them breaking up the band for seemingly no reason feels like a classic case of a movie needing to end on a note that doesn't contradict the show. In other words, they needed things to go back to the way they were before the movie started for the sake of it making sense when going back to the show that likely wouldn't be acknowledging the movie at all.
13:41 MATT DAMON!
I love your Arthur content!
9:47 "what, we're not gonna cut to that?" 🤣🤣🤣
"You tell Arthur Read that he'll never eat lunch in this town again!"
"But he's not from this town."
"You can't eat lunch either!"
I remember seeing a later season episode where I think there was a subplot where Brain goes to a therapist who was voiced by Idina Menzel, some time after Frozen came out.
OH SHIT, I REMEMBER THAT ONE! Also, nobody talks about the fact that Jane Lynch was in the episode where Ratburn gets married.
