I hate it when adults say "the kid is too young to understand" because they do. They understand everything. They just don't have the proper words to explain their feelings, nor the life experiences to know to ask for help.
I appreciate how you point out important issues in these episodes instead of making fun of the cheesy or corny humor. My suggestion would be "Arthur's Big Hit." Yes, it spawned a famous meme, but it also tackles the issue of how emotions can make you do bad things and the stigma of how one mistake can ruin your life.
@@LetsRunItBackNot to mention, DW is let off the hook instead of being disciplined for her actions. That part irritates me. It should also serve as a reminder when someone says don’t do something, you need to listen.
Here’s my ideas for Part 9: Hey Arnold! “Oskar Can’t Read?”: Like Jem in this part, it focuses on Oskar, a member of the Boarding House that Arnold lives in, struggling with illiteracy. The Simpsons “Lisa’s Belly”: This episode of the long-running animated sitcom tackles body image in a way that is both humorous and relatable. Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids “Take 2, They’re Small”: The episode deals with not only petty thieves, but also how an adult takes advantage of a child until the Junkyard Gang shows the young boy, Justin, the error of his ways due to a man named Harlow causing trouble for him. Adventure Time “I Remember You”: The episode deals with the emotional pain of being separated by loved ones, and the overflowing emotions of a reunion, as seen with the reunion of Marceline and the Ice King.
There are two episodes of Horseland that really stuck with me. The one where Pepper decides to stop eating after the other horses tease her over her weight. As a person who struggles with ED and body image issues, it hits close to home. And the episode about Mosey, the barn cat. IYKYK😢
I didn't know about the show until several people suggested the episode. I don't limit the entries to just kids shows so I have more to work with. Being how it is though is why I left it for the very end though. If not for the surprising amount of request, most likely wouldn't have made it due to being so recent.
@@LetsRunItBack I appreciate you including recent shows from the 2010s and 2020s. A lot of people say "cartoons don't have soul anymore", and while, yes, their studios have gotten more restrictive, there are still a ton of great creator driven shows out there that tackle serious subjects, not because they have to, but because they want to, and they usually have to battle the network censors to make it possible. A few other examples I can think of: I Remember You: Adventure Time Steven Universe: Alone At Sea Rare Americans: Carson Moon Girl: Like Mother Like Daughter Ghost and Molly McGee: Like Father Like Libby Gravity Falls: Blendin's Game Bluey: Copycat Phineas and Ferb: Phineas and Ferb Get Busted Bojack Horseman: Free Churro I Remember You: Adventure Time Steven Universe: Alone At Sea Rare Americans: Carson Moon Girl: Like Mother Like Daughter Ghost and Molly McGee: Like Father Like Libby Gravity Falls: Blendin's Game Bluey: Copycat Phineas and Ferb: Phineas and Ferb Get Busted
And yet many of the people that are fans of that show are actually children. I guess they either just don’t realize it’s meant to be an adult oriented cartoon, they are surprisingly mature for their age, or their parents might not care that they watch the show. It’s kind of a modern day South Park, a show meant for adults that surprisingly has many children as fans.
Thanks for the Rocko's Modern Life episode Who's For Dinner. As an adoptive father myself, it's an important topic. My wife and I have been very open with the subject though our kiddo is still very young, and we know there's going to be some big challenges in the future when he starts asking questions about his heritage. Adoption is often played for laughs in cartoons, so trying to de-stigmatize it is always very welcome.
There's an episode of American Dad that I think is worth a mention. The American Dad After School Special focuses on body image issues and anorexia nervosa. Steve starts dating an overweight goth girl, Debbie, to which Stan, the ever-appearance-obsessed, is appalled once he finds out her body type. So appalled, in fact, that he develops anorexia nervosa. He starts exercising more and eating less, and even meets a verbally abusive, trucker's cap donning personal trainer named Zack (who, in the end, turns out to be a figment of Stan's delusional imagination). The episode very poignantly depicts what anorexia nervosa does to a person, and gives the perspective of an adult man struggling with it, as opposed to the stereotype of it only affecting teenage girls/young women (which the episode even points out, as when Stan goes to a support group for people with anorexia nervosa, most of the peers are indeed teenage girls). It's especially surprising how maturely and respectfully the matter is handled for a Seth MacFarlane show.
What I find brilliant about that episode is the fact that during Stan's diet, he appears to be gaining weight, and its framed to make you think it's due to his family "sabotaging" his eating habits. However, when they tell him he's been getting thinner and thinner, he takes off his shirt to show his "fatty" body, only for it to be revealed he's actually bone thin, and the fat Stan we were shown was part of his delusion, just like his trainer. It's one of the best portrayal of how a person with such a disorder sees themselves
@@Account_Not_Applicable Oh, for sure! I will always remember the scene where he takes his shirt of, and the whole family gasps. Stan says "I know, I'm a big tub of lard!", and right after that it switches from sort of his perspective to the rest of the family's perspective, and it's the first time we see him as he truly is, practically a skeleton with skin, as opposed to the overweight self his delusional imagination made him see himself as.
There is an Arthur episode where his knee is cut by an opened can’s lid. And an another episode focused on the Tibbles twins who learned about the dangers of being distracted by their imaginary fighting when they accidentally caused D.W to need to get stitches in her lips after her mouth was hit by a swing
Cola Cult is also interesting in that Gadget is arguably the smartest member of the group. I've seen people who assume people who join cults (or extremist groups) are stupid but that's fairly often not the case. I think it's often more people who are adrift or troubled and need a place to belong or gain purpose/direction to their lives. Often times these groups will do something genuinely helpful for the person and then use their gratitude to sink them further in. But mostly it's kind of a silly/funny episode. And man Ace, how tragic!
Episodes like Bleep! Show that DW wasn't always let off the hook as everyone thinks. Usually episodes purely focused on her and not Arthur allow her to get in trouble with the parents.
You're welcome, and your right that was my mistake. I originally wrote that part of script from a synopsis since never saw show before which said former. I fully watched the episode after editing the section and forgot to edit that part out unfortunately.
@ Ah. That makes sense. Also I definitely cried during that part because, as I said in the comment where I suggested the episode, the scene in Angel’s dressing room is the hardest scene to watch in the entire episode, (and the entire show so far), so even just seeing the footage makes me cry.💔😭 That episode never gets any easier to watch, but personally that’s why I love the episode. It’s such a realistic portrayal of abuse and it’s treated with such sincerity without glorifying the situation.
I understand the feeling. When making these episodes, many times I cover topics that get me emotional due to going through some of the subjects personally in my own life.
That was my suggestion. This episode is why Huskerdust is my favorite couple in the series. Husk tells him how he understands what Angel is going through because he’s in a similar situation. “I know what it’s like to regret the choices made and know when you can’t take it back”
@ My top 6 favorite songs from season 1 of Hazbin Hotel #6- You Didn’t Know #5- Stayed Gone #4- Hell’s Greatest Dad #3- More Than Anything #2- Loser, Baby #1- Poison
One thing I really find funny about the Arthur one is that at the beginning of the episode, Arthur explains how bleeps get added into video, and (for the intention of making the show seem like it was in one take, lol) they show a guy actively bleeping the words as they're being spoken. So it's not just a VSE about profanity that children pick up, it's a sneak peek into the film industry in a way that's potentially likely to make kids more interested in learning about it.
Slight nitpick here. In the Simpsons episode, Lisa did feel bad about her family tree, but not because of the African-American heritage. Her grief was caused by the fact that her ancestor failed to stand up for what she believed in and brought shame to the Simpson name. Upon learning that they descended from a freed slave, and not the person she thought they did, made Lisa feel actually proud of their ancestry.
Milhouse is such a jerk in that episode. If he ‘loved’ Lisa he would have talked to her in private not shamed her in public. He didn’t get punished. The Simpsons timeline is confusing as there are noble simpsons. My guess it was focusing on past Simpsons not current.
Thanks for the shout-out. My screenname's number is a reference to Pokémon (Scorbunny, National Pokédex Number 0813) Glad to help you spread the word about the educational value television can bring, even when hidden in plain sight.
Nice list, as many of these were ones I either A, hadn't seen before, or B, hadn't seen for years. Love how you talk about the issues, not just mock how cheesy a lot of these might come across as.
I was pleasantly surprised to see Masquerade on this list. It hits hard with me and my partner, as his ex-partners were abusive to him nearly the same way Valentino is to Angel. There's also a part in a different episode where Valentino leaves voice mails for Angel, sounding pleading and soft at first, then slowly delving into abusive slurs and words the more times Angel doesn't pick up the phone. Their relationship is textbook toxic, and a lot of people are too afraid to talk about their experiences because they feel they deserve the abuse for a multitude of reasons, or no one will believe them because their abuser has (physically, mentally and/or emotionally) beaten that into them.
Definitely love these episodes you're going to run out because there's only so many of them switch off the milk is why you can it's my favorite thing to watch on your channel
Thank you, I'm happy you enjoy them. I have a lot that I can still cover for now luckily since you guys seem to like the series and have given me many episodes to cover in the future. Whenever I run out I'll probably do deep dives into certain episodes already covered to be much longer then just a 1 minute segment.
The Smurfs had the episode "Squeaky" where Smurfette adopts an old mouse only for him to die a few days later saving Papa Smurf from a lab fire (or seemingly in his sleep in the syndicated version.) Similar to the Chipmunks episode, Smurfette goes into a depression over this isolating herself from her friends because she doesn't want to see them die. While I don't know if the English version of this special episode has been found yet (I know the Korean version has) since this show's English version is mostly lost media last time I looked, but surprisingly "Little Clowns of Happy Town" of all shows had one. "Goodbye Grandma" is about two of the main clowns, Hiccups and Blooper experiencing their grandma passing away, and Blooper is so upset about it that he runs away.
Oh my gosh, another episode of Jem was covered! I always loved Roxy Rumbles! I loved getting to learn more about Roxy as a character, instead of her just being one of the "bad guys", I loved the interaction between her and Ba Nee at the end, I loved how it showed the importance of learning and literacy and that its never too late to learn to read! Oh, for part 9, maybe you could talk about the 2 part episode of Jem called "The Music Awards"! It has to do with with child runaways, and when it first aired, it included a number runaway children could call if they needed help! Oh, or the episode of Jem called "Riot's Hope". It's from the third and final season of the show, and has to do with gendered expectations, abuse, and strained familial relationships. It's probably my absolute favorite episode in the series. I re-watch it a lot, and I usually show it as one of the first episodes I have someone watch with me when introducing them to the series. Starting at the beginning doesn't always work very well for introducing them to what the series is capable of being, but this episode does, and it sometimes hooks them enough that they don't give up in the middle of the 5 part episode that starts the series.
Some VSEs that happened during the holidays. Hey Arnold! Did a Christmas special where, after realizing Mr. Hyunh, a Vietnamese immigrant looking for his lost daughter after being separated during the Vietnam War. Arnold, Gerald and even Helga attempt to find Mr. Hyunh's long-lost daughter Mai The Loud House: "11 Louds a Leapin'" where Lincoln finds out that their irritable neighbor Mr. Grouse has missed seeing his large family for 5 years at Christmas because he doesn't have money to travel so the Louds and the McBrides help Mr. Grouse have a Christmas party and the family chipped in for a ticket by bus to visit his family. The Ghost and Molly McGee did a rather interesting in terms of powerful Chanukah episode where the menorah in Libby's family has a long history going as far back as World War 2 Europe.
cool to see my suggestion listed, coo-coo cola was darker than i remember lol, also thought of another episode from Batman the animated series Holiday, where Haley Quinn tried to go on the straight and narrow, i remember feeling bad for her trying to turn over a new leaf but no matter how hard she tries can't seem to escape her old way, and how Batman is the only one actually trying to help her
Here are some episodes that should be mentioned in the next video: Animaniacs, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo Clock": In this episode, while Slappy Squirrel is channel-surfing to find her favorite show, she's bombarded by an endless barrage of talk shows, thus causing her to have a mental breakdown, and sending her to an institution, nearly separating her from Skippy, permanently. This is a heartbreaking episode, of how mental health issues and aging can affect our loved ones. It was also a preview of a spin-off that never got made. Wakko's Wish: While not technically a TV episode, this straight-to-video movie was the perfect finale for the original Animaniacs series. It explores the Warners's origins, as well as the bond of family and friendship, especially since Dot has taken ill, and the once prosperous Acme Falls has fallen into despair, due to over taxation by an evil king. Wakko's faith and hope are what power this inspirational story, and the story that Yakko tells Dot about her birth while he tends to her needs is beautiful and touching. Tiny Toon Adventures, "It's a Wonderful Christmas Special": In this holiday special, the 'Toonsters offer us their own version of "It's a Wonderful Life," where Buster and the gang are rehearsing for a Christmas pageant, but everything goes horribly wrong, thus sending Buster into a downward spiral of despair. It's a very touching episode about depression, mental health, and the bonds of friendship. A Pinky and the Brain Christmas: In this installment of "Pinky and the Brain," Brain yet again attempts to world, only this time, during the holiday season. He develops a talking doll, designed to deliver a message of dominance, until his plans are quickly changed, thanks to Pinky. It's a message of hope, loyalty, and friendship. A Pinky and the Brain Halloween: In this episode, Pinky saves his best friend, Brain, by agreeing to sell his soul to the Devil, so that Brain won't have to, in order to achieve his goals of world domination. But while Pinky languishes in Hell, Brain discovers that it's lonely at the top, and vows to win his friend back. This suggests that we must forego our own goals, for the ones we love.
Here's a recommendation if you ever do a part 9 or a part 10... Hey Arnold!: "Arnold's Christmas". The true meaning of Christmas as told by the perspective of a Vietnamese refuge. It's a very important episode of the series that tackles a topic that wasn't even discussed in other cartoons: war. Specifically, what is implied to be the Vietnam War, and Arnold and Gerald following their quest to retrieve Hyuhn's long-lost daughter Mai as a Christmas surprise. Oh, and unlike other Christmas specials, no one breaks into song, Santa isn't even mentioned and not even a single Christmas Carol is sung. Watch it! You'll tear up really hard and also root for Arnold as he struggles on getting Hyuhn's gift for Secret Santa. Very powerful stuff.
This one puppet series called Wimzie’s House had an episode called “I’m Really Mad at Dad” I assume it tackles the feeling of abandonment. Wimzie’s family celebrates Rousso returning home from a two week business trip. Little brother Bo, who’s an infant, can’t really comprehend why his dad was gone for so long and is angry with him. Rousso is confused because he doesn’t get like this when the mom is out of the house for long periods of time due to her pilot job. Mother claims that he’s probably used to her not being home all the time. Wimzie, on the other hand, only wants to eat cereal(I think it’s kinda a response to her being upset about her dad not being home) and her father doesn’t approve of it. Due to this, Wimzie is mad too. The episode eventually shows how kids can react when a parent is out of the house for a period of time for work. I personally can relate on account my dad would leave all the time when I was Wimzie’s age. Except the difference is that he eventually didn’t come back at some point.
Here's a few to add to the list: Monster Rancher- Eternal Worm The episode has a Monster Breeder named Alan who beats on his Monster, Worm; which rightfully justifies Genki's animosity toward him. Moo's henchmen use this to their advantage and try to turn Worm into one of the baddies, but perishes. The end of the episode has Alan getting a new Worm and tosses away the whip he used and vows to not make the same mistakes he made. Monster Rancher- After the Rain Holly's origin backstory. Deals with traumatic experiences and how to move on from it. Monster Rancher- Pixie's Defeat 2 part episode that deals with the subjects of slavery, grudges and the cycle of aggression and revenge; as well as how to break the vicious cycle of aggression, violence and revenge.
Reminds me of watching TV at night when I was younger and the word "bollocks" was used in the show, fair to say my mum wasn't impressed when I said it though 😂🙈 I was grounded for a week.
I think Sonic Conversation or Ultra Sonic from Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) would be great choices. I'm enjoying all of the picks so far. I love this series!
Did you do the Monkey Man episode from hey Arnold? If not there's that one and also Doug when he lies about being a master horse rider to impress Patty.
There's no reason for a woman in The Simpson family tree to look just like Marge short of inbreeding. Back to the Future III did that as well, with an ancestor on Marty's father's side looking just like his mother. Also, a Lois and Clark where they go to the old west. I'm sure there were other things that didn't make sense, but that one aways bugs me.
The Christmas episode of Hey Arnold, where Arnold got Mr. Hahn’s name for a gift exchange and found his daughter that was taken to America while he had to stay behind in what Vietnam.
You put epilogue on the list. I couldn't remember the episode but now I do. Such a sad episode and sad end to one of the saddest characters in the DC universe (And yes I said characters. Ace technically wasn't a villain just misunderstood)
Great series of videos! You could mention the Young Justice: Phantoms episode Volatile (S4E3) in a future episode. It deals with the death of Superboy and the effects the death has on the Kent family.
There were a few episodes of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood that could be considered Very Special. The one that stands out, though, is the one that addressed the assassination of Bobby Kennedy.
@@LetsRunItBack *CORRECTION:* It wasn't about the JFK It was about his brother Bobby Kennedy's assassination. I edited my original comment with the correction.
Doug had a special episode that dealt with male body issues. Doug tired to lose weight for a pool party and even though he met his goal he was unsatisfied with how he looked.
The Amazing Digital Circus talks about things like grief and loosing one’s own identity (via abstraction) in its own way. Kinger’s wife abstracted (he had one last chance to say goodbye before she was sent to the cellar) and he misses her. And in a talks with Pomni, he mentions to hold onto the good memories she has with others and to cherish those around her as no one knows when someone’ll be gone.
The particular Rescue Rangers episode has always been a fav. The Horseland series has some good episodes, including ones about accepting others differences (a character with dyslexia) and overcoming fear. These are kind of the theme of the series so I don't know if they could add Special Episodes. Also, have you considered doing a video about animated series that are based off of real people? Like "princess Tenko and the Guardians of Magic, " based off of stage magician Princess Tenko, or 'Sigfried and Roy, Masters of the Impossible, ' based of the famous stage magicians. I'd be curious how many cartoons like that there are.
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future video. As for a video based on real people, I've been planning to do something like that for awhile, and added your the shows you mentioned to my notes also.
Real life example- some young girls I knew whose first language is not English and they’re not from the US, I heard them telling their mom “*Bleep* you”. They were not fully aware of what they were saying but at the same time they did know it was something bad because they thought it was funny. I tried to explain to them though that they should never say that to their mom.
For Part 9 Can you please Include the Harvey Beaks Episode “Later Dingus” Where One of the Characters Fee Finds out That Her Best Friend (Who Is A Cranky Old Man) Passes Away
FU, D Doub...wait, sorry, wrong channel. But while we're on the subject of PBS Kids, Molly of Denali's first episode (in production order) is a VSE. In that episode, the protagonist, who is Alaska Native, learns that the reason her grandpa never sings is because of the abuse he suffered as a child in a government mandated forced assimilation boarding school. The subject of forced assimilation schools is revisited in the second half of the recent Thanksgiving episode, where it's revealed Molly's great-grandmother suffered the same abuse her grandpa did. In that episode, Molly learns that grief is, paradoxically, a part of joy, and her grandpa learns that he can't let his grief keep joy out. Kind of a recap of Inside Out when you think about it.
Hazbin hotel has a lot of great moments.. but it is not for kids. For lists like this I would ask that u put that warning on adult shows please. But otherwise I absolutely love the lists and thought u put into these videos.
Thanks, I will consider that since others also had problems with it being included. Although I wasn't limiting entries to just family friendly shows, I probably will going forward with the series. I'm happy you're enjoying the series, there's plenty more to come in it!
I didn’t think an episode about profanity would qualify as a very special episode. There was also a Powerpuff Girls and Rugrats episode that dealt with that. Another one I thought of for this series is the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic episode, “Tanks for the Memories” as it deals with the struggles people go through with separation.
Mainly added it due to so many request for the episode. I guess it could be seen as a VSE for very little kids. Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future videos!
@ I also thought of a couple Sesame Street episodes. I think you already did the Mr. Hooper one, but I want to suggest the hurricane one and the one about the fire in Hooper’s store.
That Arthur episode have caught me off guard little kids saying bad words right after that mean spirited teenager said it to his mother though I am mad at Millhouse from saying that Lisa's ansector have hurt other person in the past where he never reads the diary only his ansector next time Millhouse get your facts stright oh I've seen that episode from Hazbin Hotel and it really got to me and mad at Angel Dust's boss Valentino is so toxic and treating Angel Dust as a toy for his own personal gain I really hate Valentino he's just bad person.
I remember the Beverly Hills Teens episode, the girl was swearing to win the beauty pagent in the name of General Lee. Not something you would get away with today.
Caaed Closed- Mountain Villa Murder This delves into suicide, revenge and a gruesome murder played out in a slasher horor movie style mystery and what happens when a monster named Revenge possesses someone.
Theres alot of "special" episodes in the show little house on the Prarie 1) a group of men go to the town and start to harass the women, gang up on some men to the point all the men team up to kick them out. 2) Albert, the Ingles adopted son, moves to the city and starts to do drugs and effects his living to Charles and everyone confronting him and Charles helping him through his withdrawals, that show has LOTS of "special" episodes
Now a day, When people hear their kid use a curse...they laugh and makes the kid think its ok. But when those same parents hear others say it or the kid says "I heard it from..." then the parents get concerned
If referring to being a newer series and not being for kids it still fits due to the message. To make the list, it doesn't matter who the show is aimed at to make it. The main reason it was added is due to so many request for the episode.

If you’re talking about Masquerade, I’m sorry that it being brought up was triggering for you. Honestly I personally think that episode handles the topic with care and doesn’t glorify the situation because we really see just how badly Angel suffers due to his abuse by Valentino. Angel Dust, or rather, Anthony, grew up in the Italian Mafia and was alive during a time where being gay was actually illegal. It’s why he left his family behind so soon after arriving in Hell and got into the sex work industry, working at various strip clubs until one day he met Valentino and began working for him. We still don’t know exactly how they met and how Angel started working for Valentino, but this episode clearly shows the pain Angel goes through and how he desperately wants to be free. It was so great in Welcome To Heaven when he actually stands up for himself against Valentino in order to protect Niffty.

Then the same adults go "don't kids know anything?" Like no because no one wants to teach them.

I appreciate how you point out important issues in these episodes instead of making fun of the cheesy or corny humor.
My suggestion would be "Arthur's Big Hit." Yes, it spawned a famous meme, but it also tackles the issue of how emotions can make you do bad things and the stigma of how one mistake can ruin your life.
Thank you, I put your suggestion in my notes!

Here’s my ideas for Part 9:
Hey Arnold! “Oskar Can’t Read?”: Like Jem in this part, it focuses on Oskar, a member of the Boarding House that Arnold lives in, struggling with illiteracy.
The Simpsons “Lisa’s Belly”: This episode of the long-running animated sitcom tackles body image in a way that is both humorous and relatable.
Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids “Take 2, They’re Small”: The episode deals with not only petty thieves, but also how an adult takes advantage of a child until the Junkyard Gang shows the young boy, Justin, the error of his ways due to a man named Harlow causing trouble for him.

There are two episodes of Horseland that really stuck with me.
The one where Pepper decides to stop eating after the other horses tease her over her weight. As a person who struggles with ED and body image issues, it hits close to home.
And the episode about Mosey, the barn cat. IYKYK😢
Added to my notes, thank you for suggesting!
I need to check it out. 🐴
@@LetsRunItBack the episodes are called "Mosey" and "Added Weight"
Wow, was NOT expecting to see Hazbin Hotel here! For one, it's such a recent show and for another, it's absolutely not meant for kids.
I didn't know about the show until several people suggested the episode. I don't limit the entries to just kids shows so I have more to work with. Being how it is though is why I left it for the very end though. If not for the surprising amount of request, most likely wouldn't have made it due to being so recent.
@@LetsRunItBack I appreciate you including recent shows from the 2010s and 2020s. A lot of people say "cartoons don't have soul anymore", and while, yes, their studios have gotten more restrictive, there are still a ton of great creator driven shows out there that tackle serious subjects, not because they have to, but because they want to, and they usually have to battle the network censors to make it possible.
A few other examples I can think of:
I Remember You: Adventure Time
Steven Universe: Alone At Sea
Rare Americans: Carson
Moon Girl: Like Mother Like Daughter
Ghost and Molly McGee: Like Father Like Libby
Gravity Falls: Blendin's Game
Bluey: Copycat
Phineas and Ferb: Phineas and Ferb Get Busted
Bojack Horseman: Free Churro I Remember You: Adventure Time
Steven Universe: Alone At Sea
Rare Americans: Carson
Moon Girl: Like Mother Like Daughter
Ghost and Molly McGee: Like Father Like Libby
Gravity Falls: Blendin's Game
Bluey: Copycat
Phineas and Ferb: Phineas and Ferb Get Busted
And yet many of the people that are fans of that show are actually children. I guess they either just don’t realize it’s meant to be an adult oriented cartoon, they are surprisingly mature for their age, or their parents might not care that they watch the show. It’s kind of a modern day South Park, a show meant for adults that surprisingly has many children as fans.
Yes you did the cuckoo cola episode of rescue rangers! Ty! 😊
You're welcome! 😎

Thank you, I'm happy you enjoy my content!
Thanks for the Rocko's Modern Life episode Who's For Dinner. As an adoptive father myself, it's an important topic. My wife and I have been very open with the subject though our kiddo is still very young, and we know there's going to be some big challenges in the future when he starts asking questions about his heritage. Adoption is often played for laughs in cartoons, so trying to de-stigmatize it is always very welcome.
Your welcome, I'm glad covering that episode resonated with you and that I was able to cover it.
There's an episode of American Dad that I think is worth a mention. The American Dad After School Special focuses on body image issues and anorexia nervosa. Steve starts dating an overweight goth girl, Debbie, to which Stan, the ever-appearance-obsessed, is appalled once he finds out her body type. So appalled, in fact, that he develops anorexia nervosa. He starts exercising more and eating less, and even meets a verbally abusive, trucker's cap donning personal trainer named Zack (who, in the end, turns out to be a figment of Stan's delusional imagination).
The episode very poignantly depicts what anorexia nervosa does to a person, and gives the perspective of an adult man struggling with it, as opposed to the stereotype of it only affecting teenage girls/young women (which the episode even points out, as when Stan goes to a support group for people with anorexia nervosa, most of the peers are indeed teenage girls). It's especially surprising how maturely and respectfully the matter is handled for a Seth MacFarlane show.
Thanks for suggesting the episode, I put it in my notes.
@@LetsRunItBack I second it
What I find brilliant about that episode is the fact that during Stan's diet, he appears to be gaining weight, and its framed to make you think it's due to his family "sabotaging" his eating habits. However, when they tell him he's been getting thinner and thinner, he takes off his shirt to show his "fatty" body, only for it to be revealed he's actually bone thin, and the fat Stan we were shown was part of his delusion, just like his trainer. It's one of the best portrayal of how a person with such a disorder sees themselves
i remember that episode, it got dark
@@Account_Not_Applicable Oh, for sure! I will always remember the scene where he takes his shirt of, and the whole family gasps. Stan says "I know, I'm a big tub of lard!", and right after that it switches from sort of his perspective to the rest of the family's perspective, and it's the first time we see him as he truly is, practically a skeleton with skin, as opposed to the overweight self his delusional imagination made him see himself as.
There is an Arthur episode where his knee is cut by an opened can’s lid. And an another episode focused on the Tibbles twins who learned about the dangers of being distracted by their imaginary fighting when they accidentally caused D.W to need to get stitches in her lips after her mouth was hit by a swing
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
Cola Cult is also interesting in that Gadget is arguably the smartest member of the group. I've seen people who assume people who join cults (or extremist groups) are stupid but that's fairly often not the case. I think it's often more people who are adrift or troubled and need a place to belong or gain purpose/direction to their lives. Often times these groups will do something genuinely helpful for the person and then use their gratitude to sink them further in. But mostly it's kind of a silly/funny episode.
And man Ace, how tragic!
I appreciate the Jem pick here too, that was a very smart cartoon 😊
Episodes like Bleep! Show that DW wasn't always let off the hook as everyone thinks. Usually episodes purely focused on her and not Arthur allow her to get in trouble with the parents.
It's an great Jem episode that forced on Roxy and the moral of this lesson is reading is important. 😀👍
Thanks for mentioning Masquerade. One note though, you refer to Angel Dust as a “former” adult film star, when that’s his current job.
You're welcome, and your right that was my mistake. I originally wrote that part of script from a synopsis since never saw show before which said former. I fully watched the episode after editing the section and forgot to edit that part out unfortunately.
@ Ah. That makes sense. Also I definitely cried during that part because, as I said in the comment where I suggested the episode, the scene in Angel’s dressing room is the hardest scene to watch in the entire episode, (and the entire show so far), so even just seeing the footage makes me cry.💔😭 That episode never gets any easier to watch, but personally that’s why I love the episode. It’s such a realistic portrayal of abuse and it’s treated with such sincerity without glorifying the situation.
I understand the feeling. When making these episodes, many times I cover topics that get me emotional due to going through some of the subjects personally in my own life.
That was my suggestion. This episode is why Huskerdust is my favorite couple in the series. Husk tells him how he understands what Angel is going through because he’s in a similar situation. “I know what it’s like to regret the choices made and know when you can’t take it back”

One thing I really find funny about the Arthur one is that at the beginning of the episode, Arthur explains how bleeps get added into video, and (for the intention of making the show seem like it was in one take, lol) they show a guy actively bleeping the words as they're being spoken. So it's not just a VSE about profanity that children pick up, it's a sneak peek into the film industry in a way that's potentially likely to make kids more interested in learning about it.
Oh, you added "I Remember Melville", thank you!
You're welcome!
Slight nitpick here. In the Simpsons episode, Lisa did feel bad about her family tree, but not because of the African-American heritage. Her grief was caused by the fact that her ancestor failed to stand up for what she believed in and brought shame to the Simpson name. Upon learning that they descended from a freed slave, and not the person she thought they did, made Lisa feel actually proud of their ancestry.
Milhouse is such a jerk in that episode. If he ‘loved’ Lisa he would have talked to her in private not shamed her in public. He didn’t get punished. The Simpsons timeline is confusing as there are noble simpsons. My guess it was focusing on past Simpsons not current.
Thanks for the shout-out. My screenname's number is a reference to Pokémon (Scorbunny, National Pokédex Number 0813)

Nice list, as many of these were ones I either A, hadn't seen before, or B, hadn't seen for years. Love how you talk about the issues, not just mock how cheesy a lot of these might come across as.
Glad you like them!
Dino checks out left a huge impact on me when I was a boy and it showed me that my value isn’t found in fame.
Amazing video,fantastic job on special episode of cartoons.

Try watching "A better schedule for Nickelodeon's main block" by Evan Rosman
Thanks, I will watch it tonight
@@LetsRunItBack Be sure to spread the video. It might save Nickelodeon.
Yes, Animation is a Powerful Medium. Too Bad it's in Danger.
The Epilogue episode of JLU hit me hard when I saw it and it still does. It also shows why Batman is the best Hero in the DC world
I was pleasantly surprised to see Masquerade on this list. It hits hard with me and my partner, as his ex-partners were abusive to him nearly the same way Valentino is to Angel. There's also a part in a different episode where Valentino leaves voice mails for Angel, sounding pleading and soft at first, then slowly delving into abusive slurs and words the more times Angel doesn't pick up the phone. Their relationship is textbook toxic, and a lot of people are too afraid to talk about their experiences because they feel they deserve the abuse for a multitude of reasons, or no one will believe them because their abuser has (physically, mentally and/or emotionally) beaten that into them.
Definitely love these episodes you're going to run out because there's only so many of them switch off the milk is why you can it's my favorite thing to watch on your channel
Thank you, I'm happy you enjoy them. I have a lot that I can still cover for now luckily since you guys seem to like the series and have given me many episodes to cover in the future. Whenever I run out I'll probably do deep dives into certain episodes already covered to be much longer then just a 1 minute segment.
This was excellent. Thank you for sharing it. God Bless You and stay safe 🙏 ❤️
Thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed it.
The Smurfs had the episode "Squeaky" where Smurfette adopts an old mouse only for him to die a few days later saving Papa Smurf from a lab fire (or seemingly in his sleep in the syndicated version.) Similar to the Chipmunks episode, Smurfette goes into a depression over this isolating herself from her friends because she doesn't want to see them die.
While I don't know if the English version of this special episode has been found yet (I know the Korean version has) since this show's English version is mostly lost media last time I looked, but surprisingly "Little Clowns of Happy Town" of all shows had one. "Goodbye Grandma" is about two of the main clowns, Hiccups and Blooper experiencing their grandma passing away, and Blooper is so upset about it that he runs away.
Thanks for your suggestions, I put them in my notes!
Oh my gosh, another episode of Jem was covered! I always loved Roxy Rumbles! I loved getting to learn more about Roxy as a character, instead of her just being one of the "bad guys", I loved the interaction between her and Ba Nee at the end, I loved how it showed the importance of learning and literacy and that its never too late to learn to read!
Oh, for part 9, maybe you could talk about the 2 part episode of Jem called "The Music Awards"! It has to do with with child runaways, and when it first aired, it included a number runaway children could call if they needed help!
Oh, or the episode of Jem called "Riot's Hope". It's from the third and final season of the show, and has to do with gendered expectations, abuse, and strained familial relationships. It's probably my absolute favorite episode in the series. I re-watch it a lot, and I usually show it as one of the first episodes I have someone watch with me when introducing them to the series. Starting at the beginning doesn't always work very well for introducing them to what the series is capable of being, but this episode does, and it sometimes hooks them enough that they don't give up in the middle of the 5 part episode that starts the series.
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future videos!
Some VSEs that happened during the holidays.
Hey Arnold! Did a Christmas special where, after realizing Mr. Hyunh, a Vietnamese immigrant looking for his lost daughter after being separated during the Vietnam War. Arnold, Gerald and even Helga attempt to find Mr. Hyunh's long-lost daughter Mai
The Loud House: "11 Louds a Leapin'" where Lincoln finds out that their irritable neighbor Mr. Grouse has missed seeing his large family for 5 years at Christmas because he doesn't have money to travel so the Louds and the McBrides help Mr. Grouse have a Christmas party and the family chipped in for a ticket by bus to visit his family.
The Ghost and Molly McGee did a rather interesting in terms of powerful Chanukah episode where the menorah in Libby's family has a long history going as far back as World War 2 Europe.
Thank you, I added your suggestions to my Christmas/Holidays episodes list.
cool to see my suggestion listed, coo-coo cola was darker than i remember lol, also thought of another episode from Batman the animated series Holiday, where Haley Quinn tried to go on the straight and narrow, i remember feeling bad for her trying to turn over a new leaf but no matter how hard she tries can't seem to escape her old way, and how Batman is the only one actually trying to help her
I actually watched that recently due to rewatching all of B:TAS..Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
@@LetsRunItBack B:TAS was great, so was Batman Beyond
Here are some episodes that should be mentioned in the next video:
Animaniacs, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo Clock": In this episode, while Slappy Squirrel is channel-surfing to find her favorite show, she's bombarded by an endless barrage of talk shows, thus causing her to have a mental breakdown, and sending her to an institution, nearly separating her from Skippy, permanently. This is a heartbreaking episode, of how mental health issues and aging can affect our loved ones. It was also a preview of a spin-off that never got made.
Wakko's Wish: While not technically a TV episode, this straight-to-video movie was the perfect finale for the original Animaniacs series. It explores the Warners's origins, as well as the bond of family and friendship, especially since Dot has taken ill, and the once prosperous Acme Falls has fallen into despair, due to over taxation by an evil king. Wakko's faith and hope are what power this inspirational story, and the story that Yakko tells Dot about her birth while he tends to her needs is beautiful and touching.
Tiny Toon Adventures, "It's a Wonderful Christmas Special": In this holiday special, the 'Toonsters offer us their own version of "It's a Wonderful Life," where Buster and the gang are rehearsing for a Christmas pageant, but everything goes horribly wrong, thus sending Buster into a downward spiral of despair. It's a very touching episode about depression, mental health, and the bonds of friendship.
A Pinky and the Brain Christmas: In this installment of "Pinky and the Brain," Brain yet again attempts to world, only this time, during the holiday season. He develops a talking doll, designed to deliver a message of dominance, until his plans are quickly changed, thanks to Pinky. It's a message of hope, loyalty, and friendship.
A Pinky and the Brain Halloween: In this episode, Pinky saves his best friend, Brain, by agreeing to sell his soul to the Devil, so that Brain won't have to, in order to achieve his goals of world domination. But while Pinky languishes in Hell, Brain discovers that it's lonely at the top, and vows to win his friend back. This suggests that we must forego our own goals, for the ones we love.
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future videos!
What a surprise to see the last cartoon here!
Here's a recommendation if you ever do a part 9 or a part 10...
Hey Arnold!: "Arnold's Christmas". The true meaning of Christmas as told by the perspective of a Vietnamese refuge. It's a very important episode of the series that tackles a topic that wasn't even discussed in other cartoons: war. Specifically, what is implied to be the Vietnam War, and Arnold and Gerald following their quest to retrieve Hyuhn's long-lost daughter Mai as a Christmas surprise. Oh, and unlike other Christmas specials, no one breaks into song, Santa isn't even mentioned and not even a single Christmas Carol is sung. Watch it! You'll tear up really hard and also root for Arnold as he struggles on getting Hyuhn's gift for Secret Santa. Very powerful stuff.
Thanks for the suggestion, it will be apart s Christmas Special version of this series in December. 😎
There’s an episode of Static Shock that deals with Dyslexia. Rubberband Man, A former villain turned hero, Bang-Baby struggles with Dyslexia.
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
Great video!
Thank you!
This one puppet series called Wimzie’s House had an episode called “I’m Really Mad at Dad”
I assume it tackles the feeling of abandonment.
Wimzie’s family celebrates Rousso returning home from a two week business trip. Little brother Bo, who’s an infant, can’t really comprehend why his dad was gone for so long and is angry with him. Rousso is confused because he doesn’t get like this when the mom is out of the house for long periods of time due to her pilot job. Mother claims that he’s probably used to her not being home all the time.
Wimzie, on the other hand, only wants to eat cereal(I think it’s kinda a response to her being upset about her dad not being home) and her father doesn’t approve of it. Due to this, Wimzie is mad too.
The episode eventually shows how kids can react when a parent is out of the house for a period of time for work.
I personally can relate on account my dad would leave all the time when I was Wimzie’s age. Except the difference is that he eventually didn’t come back at some point.
I'm sorry you had to go through that, it couldn't be easy. Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video.
Here's a few to add to the list:
Monster Rancher- Eternal Worm
The episode has a Monster Breeder named Alan who beats on his Monster, Worm; which rightfully justifies Genki's animosity toward him. Moo's henchmen use this to their advantage and try to turn Worm into one of the baddies, but perishes. The end of the episode has Alan getting a new Worm and tosses away the whip he used and vows to not make the same mistakes he made.
Monster Rancher- After the Rain
Holly's origin backstory. Deals with traumatic experiences and how to move on from it.
Monster Rancher-
Pixie's Defeat
2 part episode that deals with the subjects of slavery, grudges and the cycle of aggression and revenge; as well as how to break the vicious cycle of aggression, violence and revenge.
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future videos!
Love 💕 the dead bug 🐞 episode 😂 I was like… how long was he going to play with that dead bug
I think Teen Titans had a special about drugs. Rugrats had an episode about bad language.
I remember watching that Arthur episode and D.W. got a dirty mouth.
Reminds me of watching TV at night when I was younger and the word "bollocks" was used in the show, fair to say my mum wasn't impressed when I said it though 😂🙈 I was grounded for a week.
And it was Made For RUclips Poops in the Past
I think Sonic Conversation or Ultra Sonic from Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) would be great choices. I'm enjoying all of the picks so far. I love this series!
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for a future video!
Did you do the Monkey Man episode from hey Arnold? If not there's that one and also Doug when he lies about being a master horse rider to impress Patty.
Thank you, I put your suggestions in my notes!
There's no reason for a woman in The Simpson family tree to look just like Marge short of inbreeding. Back to the Future III did that as well, with an ancestor on Marty's father's side looking just like his mother. Also, a Lois and Clark where they go to the old west.
I'm sure there were other things that didn't make sense, but that one aways bugs me.
The Christmas episode of Hey Arnold, where Arnold got Mr. Hahn’s name for a gift exchange and found his daughter that was taken to America while he had to stay behind in what Vietnam.
Thanks for suggestion. I have it noted for a Christmas episode of the series.
You put epilogue on the list. I couldn't remember the episode but now I do. Such a sad episode and sad end to one of the saddest characters in the DC universe (And yes I said characters. Ace technically wasn't a villain just misunderstood)
The Mr.T cartoon had an episode called "Mystery of the Stranger"that was a"Don't talk to strangers"episode!
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
Fun Fact: The Royal Flush gang in Justice League is voiced by the Teen Titans.
Great series of videos!
You could mention the Young Justice: Phantoms episode Volatile (S4E3) in a future episode. It deals with the death of Superboy and the effects the death has on the Kent family.
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video. I'm happy you have them enjoying the series!
There were a few episodes of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood that could be considered Very Special. The one that stands out, though, is the one that addressed the assassination of Bobby Kennedy.

Arnold’s story with his parents 💔

The Amazing Digital Circus talks about things like grief and loosing one’s own identity (via abstraction) in its own way.
Kinger’s wife abstracted (he had one last chance to say goodbye before she was sent to the cellar) and he misses her. And in a talks with Pomni, he mentions to hold onto the good memories she has with others and to cherish those around her as no one knows when someone’ll be gone.

I’m a pastor in training myself and I can’t stand it when cults take advantage of the people!
The particular Rescue Rangers episode has always been a fav.
The Horseland series has some good episodes, including ones about accepting others differences (a character with dyslexia) and overcoming fear. These are kind of the theme of the series so I don't know if they could add Special Episodes.
Also, have you considered doing a video about animated series that are based off of real people? Like "princess Tenko and the Guardians of Magic, " based off of stage magician Princess Tenko, or 'Sigfried and Roy, Masters of the Impossible, ' based of the famous stage magicians. I'd be curious how many cartoons like that there are.
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future video. As for a video based on real people, I've been planning to do something like that for awhile, and added your the shows you mentioned to my notes also.
Real life example- some young girls I knew whose first language is not English and they’re not from the US, I heard them telling their mom “*Bleep* you”. They were not fully aware of what they were saying but at the same time they did know it was something bad because they thought it was funny. I tried to explain to them though that they should never say that to their mom.
My mind briefly thought they actually used the word "bleep" which actually could be a little funny in a way.
For Part 9 Can you please Include the Harvey Beaks Episode “Later Dingus” Where One of the Characters Fee Finds out That Her Best Friend (Who Is A Cranky Old Man) Passes Away
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
Another special animated episodes if not already mentioned is the Smurfs’ fire-fighting Smurfs and lure of the orb.
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
I'm still gonna suggest the regular show episodes "laundry woes" "trucker hall of fame" and "Dumptown USA"
Thank you, I just added your suggestions to my notes.
There is a few more episodes from Fat Albert that are considered special episodes
Thanks for suggesting, I have some in my notes for the future 😎
FU, D Doub...wait, sorry, wrong channel.
But while we're on the subject of PBS Kids, Molly of Denali's first episode (in production order) is a VSE. In that episode, the protagonist, who is Alaska Native, learns that the reason her grandpa never sings is because of the abuse he suffered as a child in a government mandated forced assimilation boarding school. The subject of forced assimilation schools is revisited in the second half of the recent Thanksgiving episode, where it's revealed Molly's great-grandmother suffered the same abuse her grandpa did. In that episode, Molly learns that grief is, paradoxically, a part of joy, and her grandpa learns that he can't let his grief keep joy out. Kind of a recap of Inside Out when you think about it.
Thanks for the suggestion, I put it in my notes for a future video!
there's an episode of the transformers generation 1 cartoon called the golden lagoon that provides commentary on what war does to the environment

Hazbin hotel has a lot of great moments.. but it is not for kids. For lists like this I would ask that u put that warning on adult shows please. But otherwise I absolutely love the lists and thought u put into these videos.
Thanks, I will consider that since others also had problems with it being included. Although I wasn't limiting entries to just family friendly shows, I probably will going forward with the series. I'm happy you're enjoying the series, there's plenty more to come in it!
C.O.P.S had an episode. The Flintstone Kids had a special about drugs.
I think "The Wild Thornberrys" had a few of these episodes...
"Forget me not"
"Operation Valentine"
"The Origin of Donnie"
Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future videos!
There as a Captain Planet episode that delt with both gangs and abusive parents.
Thank you, I put all of your suggestions in my notes!!
U gotta do the Lizzie McGuire episode where Miranda went on that crash diet
I just put in my notes, thanks for your suggestion!
Np I’ve been liking this series so far
I didn’t think an episode about profanity would qualify as a very special episode. There was also a Powerpuff Girls and Rugrats episode that dealt with that.
Another one I thought of for this series is the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic episode, “Tanks for the Memories” as it deals with the struggles people go through with separation.
Mainly added it due to so many request for the episode. I guess it could be seen as a VSE for very little kids. Thanks for the suggestions, I put them in my notes for future videos!
@ I also thought of a couple Sesame Street episodes. I think you already did the Mr. Hooper one, but I want to suggest the hurricane one and the one about the fire in Hooper’s store.
Thank you, I put it in my notes.
That Arthur episode have caught me off guard little kids saying bad words right after that mean spirited teenager said it to his mother though I am mad at Millhouse from saying that Lisa's ansector have hurt other person in the past where he never reads the diary only his ansector next time Millhouse get your facts stright oh I've seen that episode from Hazbin Hotel and it really got to me and mad at Angel Dust's boss Valentino is so toxic and treating Angel Dust as a toy for his own personal gain I really hate Valentino he's just bad person.
Awww yiss
I remember the Beverly Hills Teens episode, the girl was swearing to win the beauty pagent in the name of General Lee. Not something you would get away with today.
Courage the Cowardly Dog- The Mask

Hoping you’ll cover a Transformers episode at some point, namely since this year (which is almost over) marks the 40th anniversary of the franchise.

Caaed Closed- Mountain Villa Murder
This delves into suicide, revenge and a gruesome murder played out in a slasher horor movie style mystery and what happens when a monster named Revenge possesses someone.

Now a day, When people hear their kid use a curse...they laugh and makes the kid think its ok. But when those same parents hear others say it or the kid says "I heard it from..." then the parents get concerned
Hazbin hotel is not a kids show that should be mentioned
I know, shows suggested don't have to be for kids to be considered for entry in these videos.
I love this channel and these videos especially but Hazbin hotel is NOT a kids show lol
I know, this series isn't limited to just kids shows.
@@LetsRunItBack I hear ya I just thought it was funny
Does Hazbin hotel count?
If referring to being a newer series and not being for kids it still fits due to the message. To make the list, it doesn't matter who the show is aimed at to make it. The main reason it was added is due to so many request for the episode.
@LetsRunItBack that was my concern.
I thought this was supposed to be about children's shows? Hazbin is NOT a children's show!
The series isn't limited to just kids shows.
I mentioned it’s an adult show when I suggested it. There was another video with an episode of House

If you’re talking about Masquerade, I’m sorry that it being brought up was triggering for you. Honestly I personally think that episode handles the topic with care and doesn’t glorify the situation because we really see just how badly Angel suffers due to his abuse by Valentino. Angel Dust, or rather, Anthony, grew up in the Italian Mafia and was alive during a time where being gay was actually illegal. It’s why he left his family behind so soon after arriving in Hell and got into the sex work industry, working at various strip clubs until one day he met Valentino and began working for him. We still don’t know exactly how they met and how Angel started working for Valentino, but this episode clearly shows the pain Angel goes through and how he desperately wants to be free. It was so great in Welcome To Heaven when he actually stands up for himself against Valentino in order to protect Niffty.
