What's your favorite PBS show?
Arthur
I'd say wild crats lol
@@seamino8329 Lmao
super why or word world (i think thats pbs)
Super Why?
I remember when PBS Kids would thank the viewers at the end of their “This show is funded in part by….” Segments at the beginning and ending of their shows.
“And by Contributions to your PBS Station by Viewers Like You. Thank You!”
That brings me back and me internally saying back “You’re Welcome!”
ya that was kool

It doesn't do that anymore? :[

When Caillou says "I'm just a kid who's 4" he's not referring to his age, he's referring to the amount of weeks he has left to live.
🤣🤣🤣

Caillou is the worst he sucks
My favorite PBS Kids shows were
-Cyberchase (one of the more superior PBS Kids shows in existence)
-The Electric Company
-Fetch
-Arthur
I also remember being absolutely _OBSESSED_ with all of the flash games they had on their website, like _Cyber Quest._ I even went back to check and replay a bunch of them for some good nostalgia, when I found out alot of them were GONE.
So I acted accordingly and used the Wayback Machine, even though games like _The Wordsuckerupernator_ were gone to time...
Also does anyone remember a show that was called something like "Chuck Vander Chuck" because I can barely find anything on it.
On the topic of games that got wiped out, I remember there was this Wild Kratts thing where you could collect animal discs by winning the different games, and even customize your own character. I think there was even a final game where you had to defeat the villains using all the discs you had. You bet I played every single game to get all the discs and win them all. Years later I went back and that whole thing was gone, they still had some games and episodes of the show IIRC but it wasn't the same anymore
Shining time station also
Idk I liked almost all of them ngl

Caillou means “pebble” in French, but it can also be roughly translated as “bald head.”
Actually, Caillou means "pebblestone". Cailloux, coincidentally, means "pebbles".
@@andrewbloom7637 i mean, "un caillou" means a pebble. "Des cailloux" means many pebbles
LMAO BALD HEAD

I loved JayJay the Jetplane so much as a kid, my mom used to tell me different characters were flying above me when I was in the bath so I would look up to try to see them and not get shampoo in my eyes
This is literally the cutest thing ever :))

Nah because this is adorable
Won't You Be My Neighbor was an amazing documentary. It had me on a emotional roller coaster all the way until the end. RIP Fred Rogers one of the greatest and most genuine men to exist in my lifetime.
Fun Fact: The Bert photo originates from a satire website called "Bert is Evil" created by Dino Ignacio on March 30, 1997. It featured Bert photoshopped in a bunch of historical moments such as him next to Hitler or placed at the site of the JFK shooting.

Personally I’d like to give PBS credit for making possibly the most horrifying characters I have ever seen.
Like..?
And you know what? Shit still slapped
I'd give Nick Jr an award for having the most horrifying kids show of all time and that is LazyTown.
@@iCupcakeMelaniex3 Thomas and his friends…
@@anonymoustroll2432 I didn't have Nick Jr growing up but my sisters and I would watch it on the one channel a few years after it aired on Nick but, you cannot tell me that show did not fucking slap.
The whole Caillou cancer thing was an urban legend at my elementary school back in the day LMAO
Same
fun fact: the sad story of Henry was originally written in the books because the Rev. W. Awdry didn't like the character and wanted him written out, but the publisher refused to publish the book unless he was given a happy ending. so Awdry cooperated and wrote another story where Henry was let back out of the tunnel and Henry was eventually given his own book and backstory, and is now a fan favorite character.
Since you asked, I was terrified of Jay-Jay the Jet Plane as a child. The second I saw that first frame of the sun rising over the mountain, I would instantly turn the channel to something else. From the footage you showed, I think the physical models would’ve made it more watchable than the abysmal cgi but it still looks absolutely horrifying. Funnily enough, I absolutely loved Thomas The Tank Engine, which you would’ve thought I should also be scared by, but their face plates were much more grounded in reality and they had a unmistakable charm to their design that made them way more visually appealing.
That’s weird because for my twin sister and me, it was the complete opposite! We were terrified of some of the expressions made by the characters of Thomas! When Thomas came on, one or both of us would run out to the kitchen and ask our mom to change the channel for us (we weren’t allowed to use the remote, only the volume buttons on the TV itself). As for Jay-Jay, my twin and I thought the characters were so morbidly ugly that it was hilarious! We never really paid attention to the plot. We just laughed at how ugly everyone was! We were odd, I guess!
@@vixenrevitup @Nostalgic Edits How did you feel about Theodore Tugboat? I never got into Theodore or Jay Jay, but am with Nostalgic Edits on TTTE. Maybe steam engines are more chaming than planes for Nostalgic Edits?
@@vixenrevitup I used to love Thomas but,holy God some of those faces were terrifying
I remember I had a Jay-Jay the Jet Plane toy when I was very little but I was scared of it
the curious george racism thing is hilarious, because the author of the theory is the one telling everyone that they apparently saw a monkey in a children's book and though of black people
Cartoons can be used for metaphors like with Animal Farm for example, that said, I don't know enough about the Curious George thing to comment on it.
Simianization was heavily present in late 30s early 40s European/American society. Being aware of that makes it difficult to view media of the time which depicts apes or monkeys, as they almost always reflect racist attitudes towards Africans during those times. Common examples include war propaganda (obviously), political satire, newspaper comics, etc. However, such a practice was used for practically any ethnic group that Americans and Europeans were hostile towards - US outlets depicted Asian people in such a way following WWII, Germans were depicted as such by the allies after WWI, and of course the practice has always been used to abuse African people. It is also almost always used to define which ethnic groups are "white" and which aren't - for example, Irish people in New York were commonly drawn as apes to denote their racial inferiority to "white" Americans, despite the fact that most people agree that Irish people are very white.
Hence the critical view of a very popular piece of media in the 40s focused on a monkey and a man dressed in colonialist attire. A comparable way of viewing older media is seeing characters with typically anti-Semitic features in the 40s as well, or people wearing white hoods in the late 1800s in media. Of course it isn't always bigotry, whether explicit or implicit, but it often is, and that makes it important to examine through a historically critical lens.
You're right about viewing things with a historically critical lens, but the idea of Curious George being in any way related to the concept of race is still a reach in my opinion. If Curious George represented a black person, he would have been a black person-keep in mind that this is the same era as "Bosko the Negro Boy" and other such goofy, commercialized portrayals of black stereotypes. The simple truth is, kids like cute animals, monkeys are cute, so someone wrote a few books about a monkey doing monkey things. The level of mental gymnastics needed to rationalize claims of racism being a present undertone in Curious George of all things is enough to win you a gold medal and then some.
@@VahlTV The article from the video (and the much older one from June Cummins) are less about Curious George being racist propaganda and moreso the way that European and American societal views (as the books were published and edited in the US while the author was European) affect the books.
This is why the article from the video draws parallels and make distinctions between the Curious George books and "Tintin in the Congo", with the latter being far more explicitly racist and orientalist.
And yes, but no. Monkeys are cute and funny, but the 40s were a very different cultural context for monkeys in media. Especially when a large section of the books' plots are centered around George being from Africa.
Plus, the original paper being a reach is kinda the whole point. It was a class paper from a sophomore examining the historical context of children's media. Like the only reason you or I can read it is because it got published in her university's program's journal years ago, right before it stopped getting issues put online.
Growing up I never saw that light skinned, straight haired "Monkey" as a Black person or any kind of person, just as a animal. Interesting.
"I never grew up with JayJay the Jetplane,"
Then you were spared from that uncanny hellscape
the Berenstain Bears being heard as "steen" instead of "stain" could be attributed to hearing "steen" in the theme song due to 1. southern accent of the singer and 2. most of us probably saw it as kids that couldn't read yet
About the whole Mandela effect thing with the Berenstain Bears, I personally have a theory that it stems from how our minds can autocorrect things to how we expect them to be or how we usually see them to be. Stein is a common suffix in last names, and so, we'd unconsciously correct the -stain to -stein. This sort of stuff happens all the time, from people reading lines of words wrong (i.e dig bick memes, yes I am using that as an example) or how most people can still clearly read and comprehend things that are spelled horribly wrong.
yeah most "Mandela effect" theories are easily explained away~ definitely not a very strong conspiracy theory, but fun enough!
I think another big part is that as kids a lot of us were read the book by our parents, and it’s possible a lot of our parents just mispronounced the name. Then we grew up assuming it was spelled the way we thought it to be pronounced.
Or idk, maybe we’re actually in a merged parallel universe or whatever mandela effect people say
Or they just miss spelled bearstain or bearstein
Finally, a sane person
This guy gets it
Literally a fanfic about Binky being covered in “some kind of goo”... yeah sounds about right.

Damn, Barney was almost covering the iceberg bottom.
I loved Ghostwriter. An interesting thing about Ghostwriter is they were upfront about him having been a person who died. His first written words were asking "Help! Where are the children," indicating that he may have died protecting children. He also had a frightened memory of being chased by barking dogs in his lifetime.
So a couple of these chocks up to is ‘People are mad Gays exist.’ Actually, now that I think about it, a big part of this iceberg can be summed up like ‘People are mad kids are treated like they’re more intelligent than a rock.’
Kids can be smart but tv executives can’t be smart.
That was dumb asf, imagine believing that watching two men getting married is gonna turn your kids into gay 💀💀🤡 watching straight shit on TV didn't turn me straight🤷🏽♀️
@@YN-ld3mh LITERALLY! I had all types of heterosexual love shoved in my face and I still ended up loving other guys.

@@YN-ld3mh Exactly. It won't make them gay, but it will absolutely increase their tolerance and make them less despisable than their parents.

he definitely is saitama how did nobody know that
THANK YOU

actually because his body hates him and thinks he doesn't deserve it
what kind of fucking disease is that
The Wicked Witch of the West appearing in “Sesame Street” wasn’t the only crossover “Sesame Street” had with an iconic movie. There was also a “Star Wars” crossover where R2-D2 & C3PO meet Big Bird.
Link? That sounds good
Margret Hamilton was a teacher before she did that role (as the Wicked witch of the West), and that was one of the main reasons she did that episode, as she loved teaching.
that sid the science kid game with the bread and mold unlocked a whole new memory i forgot i had omg
Lmao
I actually just remembered that recently, glad to see it's apparently later in the iceberg
i only played it once in a computer kindergarten class, and suddenly everyone in my class was talking about it and playing it. The 'trend' died down a month later, but i still think back and say "how did that become a popular thing?". Like, it wasn't even schoolwide, just in our class.
Does the Caillou game appear on here? I am too lazy to watch the whole thing
@@jimmy_os what caillou game. there was probably a lot PBS Kids made
My favorite PBS Kids show was probably Fetch with Ruff Ruffman, it was actually on PBS Kids Go, and would come on at the end of the program schedule at like 5 or 5:30 PM; After that, PBS went back to shows like Antique Roadshow and other stuff I'd probably be interested in watching now, being a 19 year old crone XD Because it was the last show, I'd end up just watching a lot of GO shows I remember watching that weren't necessarily my favorite. Ooooh and Cyberchase! That was a super fun show! The normal PBS Kids shows back then I really didn't have much of a problem with.
Also, love your video, I'm glad to have found an Iceberg that talks about something I grew up with!
Also your voice is amazing XD
I liked this one where there was characters that could shoot blue energy balls with words on them
@@wjw8w8whhe I think that was the Electric Company reboot.
PBS Kids Go was the best
I used to be madly obsessed with Wild Kratts lol
Also your profile pic is sick
@@FedoraLloyd Who's?
Fun fact: Because the Teletubbies were so tall (10ft), the rabbits they used in the series were Flemish Giant rabbits! They're super sweet and are up to 2-4 ft long, as to not give away the terrifying scale of the characters. But the rabbits were very notorious for uh... doing what rabbits do on set, and filming had to be paused/reshot multiple times because of it.
Lol really? 😂
I watched the hell out of some Berenstain Bears. It was actually something id sit and watch with my grandmother when i was little. She said it was her favorites of the cartoons to watch with me.
I miss her a lot
My opinions on the whole "Thomas is in an Authoritarian dystopia" idea: There are so many holes that it's blown down by the wind. As for the episode "The Sad Story of Henry", there's obviously the 4th episode that followed afterwards, they show Henry being let out of the tunnel, and even in the US dub, it was changed from the original.
UK: "'And we will leave you here for always, and always, and always!'"
US: "'And we will leave you here until you are ready to come out!'"
While I find the Smudger Story fair in terms of authoritarianism, I'm pretty sure that the Narrow Gauge Railway operated separately from Sir Topham Hatt's railway at the time. Lastly, about the scrapping and various terrors occurring to steam locomotives outside of Sodor, the Railway Series has a separate timeline and separate universes. I actually recommend looking into RUclipsr's The Unlucky Tugs videos on the timelines of the Railway Series timeline, the Model timeline, and the CGI timeline.
I agree, finally someone that can spread the normies off lol
You got a point! Agree 💯
OMG THANK YOU FOR EXPLAINING THIS TO NON FANS
I used to be a huge fan of Thomas the Tank Engine, but I was really shocked when he showed those clips. Just the undertone that these trains are alive and they’re being tortured freaked me. I didn’t remember Topinhat doing those things. Either I didn’t notice or I watched the less-scary US dubb. Glad to know that the torture-thing is not the case!
@@cola7260 Do your remember Ringo Starr or George Carlin narrating?
I remember when I was really little in elementary school, there was a rumour going around that the actor that played Barney in some sort of Barney live stage show ended up stubbing his toe at some point and said the f word in front of a whole bunch of kids. I have no idea where this rumour came from lmao, but this iceberg reminded me of it, and I just wanted to know if anyone else ever heard that rumour as a kiddo.
Yes!
The second I heard you say "1997 Barney Macy's parade", I knew I was in for a treat. Probably the greatest clip I've ever seen on RUclips
Also I've heard a theory that the man in the yellow hat is a drug dealer/trafficker based on the cost of maintaining an exotic animal and him having 2 homes one in the city and one in the country and how much an archeologist actually makes
He’s a man of many skills and interests. I wouldn’t put it past him. 😂 How else could he easily afford a hundred dozen donuts?
After that episode where he could “speak” to frogs I always just thought he was raised on the countryside (why he's so close to the farmers) but traveled to the city to see bigger things than mud and grass. After his parents passed (they're never mentioned, at least not in the movies or show) they probably left him the house and he just travels between the city and country for fun.
With the Curious George racism thing portrayed as delinquent? From both the books and the TV series, I would remember him being portrayed as childlike, but not necessarily delinquent. Also, I don't know if this is a TV original plot or it's based on the books, but I remember there being a whole subplot in one of the movies about people arguing about whether George should be in human society or not. I could maybe see the author subconsciously using this type of characterization, but I wouldn't say it's an over or even intentional message in the books, and the television show which I think more people are familiar with at this point is so narratively detached from the books that this is even less relevant.
Of course, I'm sure there is plenty of children shows where this probably does apply. By the nature of being educational, children's media is always going to try and push societal values, and they usually reflect the values of time I'm sure plenty of long running children shows probably do have plenty of questionable topics in them.
yeah half of the things the essay argues can be explained with "it's a monkey"
edit: "essay" not "SA" oops lol
Something that I read about Curious George was that the creators were Jewish Survivors during Nazi Germany so it could also portray what they faced or what their people faced. So it could have been comentary on racism at times but nothing really has been released.
Right, like wtf. There are genuinely racist kids shows, and then theres curious George. I used to LOVE that show as a kid. Wasn't it mainly about problem solving too, with George as the main character. That essay is so reaching.
@@altformusic I hated Curious George as a small child but that essay is farther reaching than Game Theory.
@@hotchocolate5908 LOL RIGHT
The scrapping of engines on the other railway is supposed to tie in with real world history. Steam locomotives were being phased out in the decades following WW2, this is reflected upon the the Railway Series and eventually the TV show. Is it fucked up? Absolutely, but that's how progress works, older machines are replaced with new ones.
and it was never supposed to have dark undertone it’s supposed to be historical
Yep and if they are lucky in this world they get saved, though not all the engine needed it since they were on sodor before the modernisation and the railways on sodor date back to 1803, so yeah they got a lot of history with them i recomend checking the book island of sodor reading between the lines a book that has huge amounts of lore to the series and the RWS books which is what thomas is based on and also fuck mattel for ruining the show
@@Therailwayman-ns7rd Exactly. When will these normies finally understand?
Love you
Haha the Barney costume thing is funny because my dad actually had a drunk swearing Barney encounter with one of the guys in the 90s. One of his favorite stories to tell 😂
Funny thing is the British person talking about Thomas which came from the UK somehow messed up explaining what Thomas is about or explains what happened to Bulgy or Henry after those stories because Henry was let out and Bulgy was repaired seasons later
That stuff mostly happened in Thomas The Tank Engine because the author of the RWS the Reverend W. Awdry liked his storys to be realistic other than the alive vehicles and when “Stepney the Bluebell Engine” was published steam engines we’re getting replaced with diesel engines. The story of Smudger was based on the story of Stanley which was told in a story from the RWS book “Duke the Lost Engine” Awdry based what happened to Stanley on what happened to a real engine. This is just my thoughts as someone who knows a good amount about TTTE.
The other thing is that they were Christian allegories written by a reverend for a reason and the horrible things that happened to the engines came as punishment for disobeying the commands of their boss (along the lines of Hell and God). The "useful" thing was also about finding your calling or purpose in life. C.S. Lewis and other religious authors of the time praised the author of RWS due to him being essentially the Max Lucado of his day. This is all something I remember from minoring in religious studies/comparative religion in college.
Are they really gonna ditch the fact that Henry was released out of the tunnel in the next episode and bulgy was soon turned into a vegetable stand and then a bus again. And smudger were not sure if Duke made up the story to make sure Stuart and falcon would keep being useful and stay out of trouble
seriously everyone conveniently leaves out the fact that Henry gets let out of the tunnel almost right away, they act like he was left in there forever
That's why i hate the facist theory, it just says the bad parts of a story, and not the full end
@@dogemaster-hm2ce I now and there's this one top ten darkest thomas the tank engine theories which that video is bs. They say that the trains are actually humans but thats not true they just got that from shed 17 which is just a fan made creepypasta. It's like who wrote that script for that video because I'm convince that who ever made that had no idea what thomas the tank engine even was.
@@stare_crown3339 lmao true, they just make those videos as normie bait, and just as clickbait in general
@@stare_crown3339 No, Shed 17 is not a creepypasta dummy. It’s a dark comedy.
21:00 The only issue with this theory is that it's out-of-context to when the Railways Series of books was written. It was written during the transition from Steam to Diesel traction in the UK post-Nationalization. The author of the Railways Series-Wilbert Awdry-and presumably most of his reader base was not a fan of diesel locomotives. They lacked a 'personality' so to speak. Every steam locomotive is one-of-a-kind, no two are exactly the same even if they're in the same class. The sound of a steam locomotive is unique to it, and changes as conditions change. Diesels, meanwhile, are mass-produced and largely operate and sound the same. Which was the point, they're primary selling point was efficiency and reduced maintenance costs. This is seen with Devious Diesel and the various other Diesel engines in Thomas & Friends with the exceptions of Boco and maybe Daisy (who's her own separate can of worms). So yes, Sodor was written as a safe haven for steam locomotives. But only in the context of contemporary UK at the time of their publication. Awdry was big into world-building, creating a compelling history and map for his fictional Isle of Sodor. As such, he needed to account for current events and write around them to keep primarily steam locomotive only.
TL:DR: The scrapping of Steam Locomotives in the Railway Series of books which the TV Series Thomas & Friends is based off is only portrayed as tragic since, in the eyes of its author and readers, it was.
Additional Thoughts: Having Draconian punishments would probably make sense also in a post-war setting. After years of chaos, people would want order and everything exactly in its place. Even if they were ultimately doing their children a disservice. Also, the line about Henry deserving his punishment was altered to be "How long will it be until Henry comes out of the tunnel?" in the US version. Lastly, no one seems to mention that the next story chronologically has Henry leave the tunnel as he's recruited to pull Gorden's train after he bursts a safety valve. Does it make up for Sir Toppam Hat/The Fat Controller saying fuck it (or in the episode "We'll leave you here in the tunnel for always, and always, and always")? Probably not, but it's something and was added at the request of the publisher. Everyone also seems to forget how beneficial the series has been to people on the autism spectrum such as myself
Honestly I'm surprised of no mention of the weird theories that people made of why Dash (the boy mascot from PBS) is no longer in current bumpers, and only on the logo for some reason. They do theories that he died or some messed up stuff, but the most reasonable theory is that he went to college.

Really early JayJay (as shown in the video) is nightmare fuel. 2000's JJ wasn't quite as bad, but still a little uncanny.
Thank you Doktor Skipper for doing my iceberg!
My favourite myth of Barney is the one where he swore at a kid on stage. It never happened but for some reason it makes me laugh every time I think about it.
"He's a cool guy and he's British" these two things directly contradict each other
this
There’s nothing wrong with being British ffs
Blud has never seen Doctor Who (esp. New Series 1, not the post-2015 bilgewater)
Can’t wait for the inevitable Iceberg Explained Iceberg Explained.
The part about how engines are being taken apart and scrapped actually happened in real life Thomas take place between 1920s to the present day in the 1950s and 60s steam engines were scrapped quickly and replaced by newer diesel locomotives considering all the island of Sodor it's off the coast of the Northwestern part of England the mainland or the other railway otherwise known as British railways and also most of the events of Thomas actually happened while the trains didn't have faces
@Oliver's 50th Account I mean it’s kind of implied that the engines don’t actually have faces in the books.
I swear, 7 year old kids who play Squid game games on Roblox are gonna think the game shown a 29:30 was them referencing Squid Game
I actually remember watching that Postcards from Buster episode. I know everyone is saying it never aired/only selectively was aired, but I beg to differ. I grew up in MO, which wasn't a state mentioned in the "selected areas". I watched the whole thing and even recorded it on the TV. As a kid I thought it was cool that they could have two moms and it taught me acceptance early.
Ghostwriter was an awesome series. The fact that they touched on how truly diverse New York is through the cast is just one of the many things that made it a great show. I saw that they were trying to do a reboot. Anyone know if it is a thing if it’s any good? Just curious
I've watched a little bit of it cause my little brother was obsessed but i'm convinced i would def prefer the original to it

There were some other PBS kids shows that I watched but hated for no reason like Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood and Thomas & Friends💀
You're such an underrated youtuber. Love listening to your content, dude. Don't stop anytime soon.
About that Thomas the tank engine entry; he was let out the very next episode/story and in the thing about engines being scrapped is based off the 60s I believe where British railways scrapped many steam engines to be replaced with diesel engines.
39:39. Yooo. I thought that I was an elementary school rumor!!! They said Barny was canceled because the actor was caught drinking with the suit on while cameras were rolling. I thought it was a dumb lie made by bullies to scar little me, but I didn't know that story had any truth to it.
The fact they describe a teletubby as a magical techno baby with a bag, is gonna be glossed over. Cool.
12:15 Apparently the infamous Bears meme is a personal bother for the creators too long before the meme got famous. Stan Berenstain and his son mention people constantly getting his name wrong in the exact same way, with even a teacher insisting on it.
44:11 she actually died in 2003, and she was the voice actress for Caillou that you mentioned earlier in the video
We had the indigo Barney tape but never knew why he looked so different. We didn't think to be scared of him though we may have been the exception to that rule. Great video, made me very nostalgic
I grew up on a lot of early, mid to late 2000s pbs kids shows. I enjoyed them a lot and wouldn’t mind giving them a rewatch including Cyberspace, rest in peace Gilbert Gottfried.
I love how he has kids guns guns playing in the background when talking about the Barney float saying it’s swaying
Dude noggin are some of my earliest memories. Anyone remember that mouse show and then Maggie and the something something beast
It was Maggie and the Ferocious Beast. I think that mouse show was Maisy?
yee. I remember those shows a lot, along with Oobi.
Though the moose fuckin creeps me out
I think Oswald was a noggin show too and I adored that one
Jay Jay was fucking terrifying, but I weirdly liked it, same with thomas, although i think that jay jay was creepier
I hated Thomas
I liked a lot of the creepy/weird cartoons that had an acid trippy fever dream vibe going on. Jay Jay, Teletubbies, that show with the booba creatures. I think my child mind was fascinated by the weirdness and randomness of the settings and characters, even if the plot was dumb or straight up nonexistent
I loved pbs so much. Very fond memories. Now I watch it with my kids. Arthur and zaboomafoo were the best.
Hey skipper, Thanks for everything you do, you’re one of my inspirations for making RUclips videos and I just want to say thank you bro, hope life’s treating you well!
Imagine being known as “the one dead Caillou girl”. Speaking of imagine being the Virgin Mary and that’s just how it is.
XD?
18:56 this entry more the episode needs some context.
The reason why Henry was bricked up is that what happened before the fat controller was right to do it he had trouble with Henry he was a bad steamer, he was a prick, and the fat controller was scammed from his money when he bought Henry. Also there not like slaves the a metal with only a face not a human plus the get paid by bing fixed when needed. Sorry for going on a rant.
On a similar note, one also has to remember the Christian allegory aspect of the book series. Being bricked up and in darkness forever for acting that way (proud) is like being cut off in darkness forever for not doing as the Fat Controller (God) says. We went in-depth about the Reverend Awdry and his writing intent for my religious studies minor in college.
Listen. Not saying he was right or wrong for not wanting his paint smudged. All imma say is it's a mood.
I've had a strange vague memory of a scene from Jay Jay the Jetplane bouncing around my head for several years: it was a scene of him and another plane flying through some valleys then through a cave filled with different colored crystals. Thats the only thing about the show I could remember. Somehow I didn't remember the human faces on the vehicles and now I wish I could forget that again lmao
I'm not really that into icebergs. But I loved PBS when I was a kid, so this was a real treat!
I love the fact that protogent got in this, still one of my favorite memes.
For me it was always -Stain but pronounced -Stein. I asked my parents why but they just shrugged and said 'it's always been that way'.
I remembered it was stein because of the theme song says bearSTEIN
mine was the other way around
I hear stain...I thought it was me being weird, glad I'm not alone lol.
I remember Stein not Stain
It's not often that i see people actually read and reference academic texts in iceberg videos! Nicely done!
Seeing some of this stuff again after so long is like remembering a vague dream I had in another life. Such a surreal feeling.
Ringo Starr narrated Thomas the tank engine for a few years
There was an episode of JJ The Jet Plane where this old plane has a malfunction, starts falling towards the earth, and (I think) he just manages to recover. It was intense man 😐
Ok, something about PBS Kids I remember VIVIDLY, was when Elmo had a book about potty training and one of the buttons that was supposed to be used with the story said “uh oh,*laughs* who wants to die?”… Ik VERY SCARY ESPECIALLY TO BE MARKETED FOR CHILDREN!
I just gotta say, and I don’t mean this in any bad way at all, but this video is AMAZING to fall asleep to! Such a calming voice. Anyway love your work, keep it up!
Fun Fact: In “The Sad Story Of Henry” Ringo Starr Actually Narrated
Ringo narrated pretty much the entirety of Season 1’s UK dub

I remember seeing a few ghost writer episodes in 4th grade, it was pretty decent
I was a 2000s kids to but I love Ghost Writer! My mom introduced us to it because she used to watch it and me and my siblings ate it up! We would always rent it from blockbuster, but now the full episodes are on RUclips. Super nostalgic and still holds up today I recommend it highly!
Growing up without cable, PBS was considered my cartoons. My parents liked the PBS Kids shows cause they could just get ready for work while little kid me is sitting there, watching it all. The Stop and Go flooded back memories of playing that, along with some Arthur related flash game where you can make your own alien and Buster gets abducted into a UFO and sent to the planet of your created alien (it's just copypasted about the planet).
Thomas and friends is actually pretty close to real trains despite them talking since the creator wanted his series to be realistic as possible. The scrapping of the engines on the other railway was actually a real thing in the 1960s where steam engines where being replaced by diesels and Electric engines
Caillou doesn't have hair because God hates him.
Caillou cried so much even his hair had enough

My friends and I Love all of your vids so much and are always excited for a new upload,
i love how your character is a shoebill stork, its one of my favorite birds! it needs more recognition!
Watching this first thing in the morning and learning that you have a collaboration where you talk about Barney's Great Adventure make this morning one of the best mornings I've had in a VERY long time..!
Thank y'all so much..! 💜
I always remembered it being BerenSTAIN. My explanation for the Mandela Effect: Tons of people have just been pronouncing incorrectly for so long that it has become intertwined with their memories of the franchise.
“He’s a cool guy,, and he’s British”
Felt that one
With Thomas, I did notice some weird stuff with it as a kid. My mom is disabled, and I have ADHD, so I'm familiar with feeling inadequate and fearful, so the way those kinds of topics were handled bothered me, and made me feel like I had to hide my fears and challenges. Obviously that show isn't the only thing that added to those feelings, but I do remember there being an undertone of implying you have to fit in and be good enough, things which aren't possible for disabled kids and those with perhaps dealing with trauma, as hiding those emotions inside only makes it harder to deal with later. I like when kids shows say it's okay to be different, like Dragon Tales, My Little Pony (at least some gens), and some of the muppet based shows.
I'm also a 2000's kid, but my fourth grade teacher had the first season of Ghost Writer on vhs and played it for the class, one episode a week or so. I think even as a kid I could tell it was an "old" show (even though at that point it would've only been about a decade and a half old). It was still really fun though!
That show definitely didn't age well. Especially the episode about the internet.
you forgot “GoAnimates bizarre Caillou fascination”
Edit: I NEVER GOT THIS MANY LIKES BEFORE

Finally, an iceberg for those of us who grew up without cable
