Thanks so much for watching! Were you a fan of The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack?
Remeber the secret saturdays
@@pedrogabrielduarte4544 same here and I had the claw when the show when it was at its height
I LOVE FlapJack! It actually influenced a bunch of shows like Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, and even Regular Show!
@@theshenpartei i am asking him to make a vídeo of this show
Hey, could you do a video on Mike, Lu and Og? It came out at the tail end of the 90s during CN's golden era, but is largely forgotten about nowadays.
Knowing that the creator of Flapjack is literally a Florida Man made this show even better in my eyes.
He just condensed all his Florida man energy into this instead of just becoming insane.
@@FrogTonic I mean the dude lived in the Jungle in Mexico and eventually started to eat out of Dumpsters.
@@Foogi9000 exactly, instead of doing that just focus it in and make eating out of dumpsters in the jungle into a cartoon.
Yee-Yee
no wonder why i loved this show
The candy wife is the single most terrifying thing ever
I whole heatedly agree, and so is DoctorBarber
@@petite2276 I don’t even really mind dr barber *that* much. It’s the fact that candy wife is stop motion.
@@braedenmclean5304 What about the demonic cat?
@@petite2276 barbers being doctors were a thing btw
@@porcelainpup Yup, that's why the barber pole is red, white and blue. Red representative of blood- surgeries.
The end to the Mermaid Tears episode is forever locked into my brain.
Skymaid: ...So never stop wishing, Flapjack, and all your dreams will come true
Flapjack: Even the scary ones?
Skymaid: Hahahahahahahaa (in the most deep and demonic voice you can think of) *Yes*
I was just thinking of that lol.
Strangely enough, I remember that part of the episode too for some reason. Along with other episodes as well
That episode scared the living shit out of me
@@dr.harmacist5836 what exactly scared you? The slow ugliness that the mermaid was transforming into? The close up of her face? The demonic way she said "yes?" What was scary?
the part where she was convulsing and writhing in the ocean before transforming legit gave me nightmares lolol
As a kid, it weirded me out and often scared me, but as an adult every time I look back I'm impressed by the raw passion and ambition in the animation they had
There must of been something wrong with me, because as a kid I used to laugh hysterically at this show
How old are you? I need context cuz I watched this show as a man an knew it shouldn't be shown to kids under 12 by the second episode. It was like Ren & Stimpy in my childhood but waaaaaaaaay darker
EXACTLY
I remember the episode where a dog does a flip in front of K'nuckles and he makes the perfect "Woooooooooooooaaaaah!" face. Kills me every time.
It's gonna take a little more than that to impress me
"You might have Flap and the rich lady fooled but you'll never... WOOOOOOOOH!
*dog flips*
_WoOaOoAaOaAoOoOaAaOoOaUuUaAaH_
What the dog dooin
I remember episode when flapjacks father? (that guy idk his name) wishes everyone to disappear and drops coin and it actually happens (there was 1 creepy frame with his face xd)
This show was part of my childhood. But it definitely had a subtly terrifying atmosphere.
Yeah same here
Exactly
I watched it but man it was weird
We all seemed to have gotten out of it ok. We’re lucky to have been around during this experimental time in cartoon history I’m just sad that the next they are playing it too safe with the next generation.
That's why I loved it
"Anyone need surgery?........or a hair cut?...." Dr barber was always one of my favorites. I loved all the weird and unsettling characters that would pass stormalong. Truly an underrated show.
Terrifying fun fact! Barber/surgeons were a thing that existed! Old timey medicine is terrifying!
To this day, the hyperrealistic cat with soulless eyes and sharp teeth fits to the category of the "scariest cartoon moments" next to King Ramses from _Courage the Cowardly Dog._
Bruh i was a kid and saw that
that shit is traumatizing lmaooo
That fucking cat lives rent free in my brain, and every time I watch that scene I crack up real bad. Especially when flapjack just goes "aren't you beautiful," and it zooms in on the stupid ass png of the cat 😂😅
I thought it was only me and my sibling traumatized by that ramses thing. The whole courage the cowardly dog amazes me in fact
Candy wife is far scarier
I loved every strange moment this show had. The skymaid saying "YESSSSS" is one of my favorite moments.
Lolol yah that definitely makes me chuckle when i randomly remember that moment
Daran Norris: "Oh, look, Martha; tandem travelers trioed by a floating whale."
Ong , lol shit was wild
That aired when me and my siblings where teens. And seeing the juxtaposition of a sweet angel, going “YES.” Made us laugh so hard. We quoted that episode for like a year
@@PartnershipsForYou lol same with my siblings too it worked really well when ever either of us needed a good laugh and we already had a habit of doing silly/weird voices when we needed to get the others attention so we quoted a lot from the show lol
This was one of my favorite shows back in middle school alongside Chowder. It felt familiar to me thanks to the SpongeBob/Ren & Stimpy-like gross and unsettling close-ups and the surrealist humor. Also K’nuckles sharing a voice actor with The Flying Dutchman always stuck out to me.
Great show!
The SpongeBob connection can probably be attributed to how Kent Osborne (who wrote on seasons 2-3 of SpongeBob) worked on this show as a writer and producer.
Yesssss!!!! I loved this show and chowder!
A Flapjack, Chowder, AND SpongeBob stan?? I love you 😂
Same this show was fun too watch in 3rd and 4th Grade
Ren & is a Stimpy but waaaaaaaaay darker
Wow, the creator's backstory was fascinating
I love ur channel!!!!
That old woman with the wig saying "more powder Charles" will live in my head forever..always great content sir
Hahah my bro and i randomly quote that old lady when the opportunity pops up
Mooorre powwdah
powder
I absolutely loved Flapjack when it aired, albeit I don't think I was the target audience (I was a 20something stoner). A few weeks back I tried to show this show to me wife and she was a bit put off (rightly so) by some of the more realistically animated scenes. I'll still always love this show
I think the show is kind of a hit with that crowd too i showed it to my dad who grew up in the 60s/70s and he thought it was really fun so when it would pop on the tv we would hang out and watch it
Lmfao this is the funniest comment I’ve ever seen
It's like Ren and Stimpy but wayyyyyyy darker I realized by the 2nd episode.
@@hallowsgremlin8971 I remember watching it when I was 10 and my parents (mid 30s) loved it. Even years after it ended, we'd dress up as the characters for halloween.
Isn't everything better when you're a 20 something stoner?
Flapjack was most definitely an acquired taste, one that not everyone had. And generally the opinions on it are mixed. However, it did inadvertently save Cartoon Network from itself some years later by helping to further the careers of two creators who many may know: J.G. Quintel and Pendleton Ward, the former creating Regular Show and the latter creating Adveture Time, on which another creator, Rebecca Sugar, would work and eventually create her own series, Steven Universe which would help Cartoon Network crawl further away from its near complete meltdown after the disastrous live action era.
You forgot to mention how Flapjack lead to the creation of Adventure Time, Regular show, and Steven Universe, and a few other favorites I can't think of rn. But, they all have roots in Flapjack and were many of these creator's big steps into the industry.
If i remember right, the creator of Gravity falls was recruited by Disney while he was working on Flapjack
@@GhoZtectYeah with the creator of Over The Garden Wall
What really surprises me, is that this project was helped by the creator of Adventure Time, which was helped by the creator of Steven Universe, and then Ok Ko. It’s like the long never ending path of good tv.
Also my fave episode is the monkey one Kunuckles “I got it!…. We surrender.”
Ian to Rebecca back to Ian again lol
Don’t forget the creators of regular show, over the garden wall, and gravity falls were also on flapjack too
Ok Ko and Gravity Falls sucks ass in my opinion
@@theonlygoodonehere2259Don’t be mean say just it’s not your cup of tea
@@daniapfel2825 I take my opinion back Gravity falls an amazing show, but... Ok KO is straight up trash
That Modest Mouse conection is very interesting, because one of the recurring themes of Isaac Brook´s music is actually the sea. By the time that Flapjack hit Cartoon Network, Modest Mouse already put out the album "We Were Dead Even Before the Ship Even Sank". So it really made sense that Isaac would be fan of the show.
Also dont you love the artstyle of Flapjack inspired by pirates, tattoos and old sea art? I swear that no other show looks like that.
As an avid fan of Modest Mouse, I had no idea about the connection between the two until recently. I had forgotten about this show until I found it on Hulu and binge watched it. Every time I'd put it on, I couldn't help but be reminded of Modest Mouse just by the general aesthetic and storyline. When I got to "All Hands on Deck" and heard the intro, my brain just about exploded. After looking into it I also learned that the theme song is inspired by "Big Rock Candy Mountain" which was in O Brother Where Art Thou. It's all connected, man!
This show was a huge part of my childhood in the realm of cartoons. It had this gritty realness that really appealed to me during the rough times
This show was so trippy and good. I got it on Hulu and I always find myself rewatching the show every now and then. My favorite episode was “the west was fun.”
Bubby & flapjacks adoptive mother whale/son relationship is something I find heartwarming still all these years later at 31..it’s just so beautiful 😭
Yeah so true
This show still haunts me to this day.
For real, i like this show but it fucking scares me to this day 😂
@@ali_el_baba3665 The close up shots are really creepy and the change of animation style always made this show creepy for me as a kid :>>
@@sie1464 FACTS BUT I LOVE IT
Flapjack is one of my favorite Cartoon Network shows. It was really interesting to me because of how strange and creepy it was. I love how this show could both make me laugh and terrify me at the same time.
I really liked it too and courage the courageous dog right there were some sick shows back then
This show will always be one of my favorite. Despite the creepy atmosphere, I liked the characters, animation, and main quest.
This show was definitely one of my favorites. It always reminded me of my childhood growing up in a salty Massachusetts fishing villages. Hunting for crabs in the rocks, seeing the weathered fishermen leaving their boats, reading about pirate ghosts that haunted bar rooms, and working on my families marina docks talking to the old boaters. Good times
Flapjack is an underrated classic.
You be bringing the best cartoon reviews rather they came out abt 10 years ago or not too long ago GOAT
Thansk for the kind words and support!
My uncle is an artist and when I was a kid, this was the one show his eyes popped open really wide for, when he first saw it.
Loved how disturbing the show could be at times. Favorite moment was knuckles telling his story of him fighting a shark while the music in the background was just his name being sung over and over.
This show was so good! 😭 This was one of those odd cartoons that my parents actually liked watching with us haha
This show always gave me such huge Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass vibes and for that I love it with all my heart.
I kept watching the show, mostly because I was hoping to see a multipart episode where they finally find the Candy Island. Imagine my disappointment.
My favorite episode would have to be the episode where Flapjack and K'Nuckles hunt for candy wrappers, since Peppermint Larry believes the wrappers to create a map to Candy Island. While this ultimately wasn't so, the idea of the map being cut down to candy wrappers is to this day one of the best treasure hunt ideas I have ever heard.
Blame CN
The “you need to grow up” scene still lives in my head rent free
don't remind me
This is one of the shows that made my childhood. And my favorite character will always be Doctor Barber! That guy was always an interesting person to say the least.
Yesssss i loved his odd monotone voice i think of that often when i got and get my hair cut i met a hairdresser that got the reference to doctor barber we chatted about the show snickering that was a fun time
I remember! I'm STILL having nightmares of that eyeless cat!! 😱😰
That cat ahh that was kind of traumatic for me lol it probably did not help that at the time i had a white cat that had really big eyes.who liked to jump scare people any chance she got
This channel is the closest thing I have to an antidepressant right now :') I've loved each show you made videos on over the last few days. I loved the style of this show and I've been looking for media as bizarre as this. Buddy shows/movies are my absolute favorite. I know there's technically 3 main characters, but it's mostly Flapjack and Captain Knuckles getting into trouble. I think I love it even more now that Modest Mouse was involved. This video made my day better. I'm going to be really sad once Fringemas is over
I appreciate the support very much! Keep you’re head up as much as possible friend!
Flapjack was one of the last CN shows I remember actually catching my attention before my taste in media moved on.
Def loved the art style. It was a great and underrated show, especially around CN’s dark age era.
I caught this show when the first episode aired and I was hooked from the start. Between the odd setting, the esoteric humor and the animation style it was the best CN show of the era. To think it was axed to make way for the worst era in CN history is truly sad. The show had yet to run its course when they canceled it.
Modest Mouse has been my favorite band for years so when Isaac Brock covered the theme song I was ecstatic; I immediately recognized his voice. I still get the main theme song and that cover stuck in my head occasionally.
My sisters and I still quote this show constantly. It was a staple in our household. The weirdness was perfect for the teenage me.
I loved Flapjack so much when it was on. I was always really bummed that it ended. Although I later found out how many people that worked on the show went on to create there own shows, or work on other shows I love.
Loved it, when I was doing illustration in college, this was a big inspiration for me, really loved the water colored backgrounds they used for everything. Save for cell art. It was a true work of art, every frame. Hope we get a spiritual successor one day.
I remember this show VERY vividly, not only from its creep factor but because me and my little cousin would watch it all the time and her step dad mimic’d some of the characters randomly at times.
Flapjack is one of my favorite cartoons ever! Absolutely love the weird and sometimes dark and disturbing humor of it
I absolutely freaking love this show!!!!!
Edit:
At 3:41 that sounds like the voice actor for Bojack Horseman
I was 22 when this show came out and I loved it. It gave me Ren and Stimpy vibes. Loved the switch of animation styles and the close up grotesqueness. One of the best in my options
YESSS THERE IT IS!
this show is fantastic, there's nothing else quite like it out there! the visuals, the humor, it's so unique and a hell of a lot of fun to watch
my mom and i kept up with this show religiously, she loves anything pirate/seafaring related so she mightve liked it even more than i do, haha. i have a lot of great memories of this show, watching it as it aired was always a fun experience because you never really knew what kind of weirdness would get thrown at you next!
Flapjack is an absolute gem of a cartoon, it's timeless
Fuckin LOVED Flapjack! This was such a dope episode. Love your work and dedication to churning out so much content! I hope you've been re-discovering more about yourself again through out the 25 days of Fringemas!
Thanks so much! Truly appreciate the support!
I was just rewatching the show with my girlfriend. She had never watched it before and she's loving its bizarreness!
This was genuinely my favorite show as a kid. I loved how weird and messed up it was. Such a classic I loved this show.
My wife and I loved this show, my son was only 2 years old and we saw our child in lil Flapjack. Great memories
Flapjack was such a weird show. I still love it to this day though.
This gotta be my favorite cartoon. I enjoyed all the comedy and craziness/creepyness. The voice cast was spot on too. I always wanted more and think flapjack deserved more. Adventure!
Flapjack is one of favorite shows period, I always go back to it every few years to rewatch. It was my comfort show in college, I always had the entire series on standby to watch
As a kiddo with dreams of adventure on the sea, this show was my absolute jam. I loved it dearly.
It's an underrated gem.
I loved flapjack. It was absolutely insane to me that there wasn’t a Halloween episode. It seems like the perfect holiday for flap and k’nuckles
Oh bro every episode was a Halloween show!! Besides the story telling episode with the tickles defeating the scary story telling
@@jads_so_enigmatic7941Yeah
This show was my JAM! Thank you for doing it justice! The dynamic portrayed was literally my family dynamic growing up. My dad and I having adventures and my mom always berating him because “I’m too young” (moreso her overprotective nature) for said adventures hahaha
It weirded me out when I was kid but there's also a quality I've always really liked about it. Looking back on it, this show was created with so much love. I think I'll revisit this series some time.
Bubby was the best. That show was hilarious! It reminded me of a Courage the Cowardly dog type of show. I loved it
I was really scared of this show, especially candy wife. Absolute nightmare fuel.
I still rewatch flapjack regularly, I just wish there was more :')
Style of this show was amazing. I really love mixing various animation styles with puppetry.
easily one of my favorite cartoons - i named one of my rats partially after flapjack (i also has a food theme for my pets) and got a tattoo of said rat after he passed so this show holds a special place in my heart
I loved this show when it came out. I remember being grossed out in almost every single episode but my siblings and I would tune into it all the time
A marvelous video for a marvelous show! If only it came back but maybe it's better off being a gem to be discovered throughout the ages of time. I love how in one of the TV teasers, you can hear Will Arnett, the voice of Bojack! And I absolutely adore knowing Van Orman helped with Adventure Time, Grim Adventures, etc. But nothing compares to Flapjack, that is why it will always be my favorite show. (:
This show always weirded me out, but Bubby always softened the blow and eased my discomfort to stick around and watch for a moment more
Dude everything youre posting is my actual passion, thank you
I look forward to these videos every day.. thank you for helping me find random memories I wouldn’t have remembered without it
Praying for a clone high snowflake day episode 🔥
Chowder and Flapjack were like the perfect duo cartoon to me as a kid. The two golden children that kinda defined that era of CN for me. So different but they were both just so good. Kinda like how I lump Regular Show and Adventure Time together.
Just finished rewatching this series for the 6th time. Truly my cartoon love 💗🌸✨
I love hearing there was so much heart and passion in the art/writing. It makes so much sense! You can just tell there was lots of love poured into it, straight from the creator's dreams. Beautiful ❤🤍💙💚
The show first came on when I was a few years old and I remember watching it (and Chowder) every Saturday morning wiht my dad and sister. I love this show so much, hilarious, weird, different. This will always be one of my favorites!
This is one of those shows where I initially didn't like the character designs, but it didn't take long for it to grow on me. I even ended liking the series.
I’ve been waiting for this one! What a great show! And it’s animation style is definitely seen in more recent shows, it’s great!
My teen years sure were a fever trip..
I remember this show, no matter how hard I try to forget…
this channel is sent from the gods.
I used to watch a lot of cartoon network when I was little but never remembered the names of the shows, you're basically laying out all of my favorite childhood shows that I thought I'd lost forever. thank you so much
Adored this show growing up. It was a certified classic with every kid I knew. There was never anything else like it on television and it was endless fun without any stop signs for its creativity
This was such an awesome cartoon. One if my favorites actually, just below Chowder, though nit by much. I ?loved* the crazy art style, tone, and especially the random yet perfectly placed bits of unsettling visuals 😆 It was just as 100% unique as its creator.
Was pretty creeped watching this show as a kid . Until this day I can’t forget the drinking sea water episode and the mechanical genie episode.
I wanted to comment yesterday when the video got uploaded. Thank you. I was thinking about this show yesterday. It was also my birthday. Thank you for this *punch* of nostalgia
It was pure perfection, everything even jump scares were too fun for me,wish they had continued the show
I remember being really intrigued by the animation and thinking overall it was a great concept, but it was WEIRD.
Love Your Vids Dude
Thanks so much!
I just remembered the show. It's the only kids show, where an alcoholic hangs around a child, and gets them to go on adventures for "candy"
Flapjack and Chowder carried Cartoon Network through the dark era of 2008-2010. Both of them didn’t overstay their welcome but definitely left their mark.
This show was definitely a fever dream. I loved it so much.
I honestly loved this show, it was one of the only ones I liked and watched while it aired. I was strangely picky as a child, much hasn't changed in my adult life, I suppose, but I give a lot more cartoons a second chance. Regardless if the show puts me off at first.
Great video! I loved this show growing up, not at first though. It took a bit of reluctant watching, but it quickly grew on me. Now its one of my favorites, and definitely my favorite cartoon from that era of Cartoon Network 😊
I find it so dope that you are able to find the OG commerical breaks for all these shows
Loved this show, its god such a unique art style and a "different" sense of humor.
I loved this show! The whole concept of adventure and the open sea is what made me also fall in love with One Piece! Chopper and Luffy would’ve loved to go to Candy Island with Flapjack. (Which are actual islands in One Piece!)
I loved the grungy pirate aesthetic of this show. hardly anything is like it at all, and I love it.
Just found your channel. I don't really selectively binge. Moreso I just click what seems interesting in my recommended. You videos look and are incredibly interesting and informative about things I grew up obsessed with. Keep up the great work!
I remember.... Flapjack being one of the first cartoons I would actively avoid watching due to disgust of it's grotesque art style, including the mentioned Lazlow, Chowder, and Gumball. Looking back, it's even stranger than I remember. I can vaguely see the hints of Grim Adventures and Adventure Time, but the style of Flapjack... just leans too heavily into body dysmorphia and other elements that made it visually unappealing and outright repulsive when they did the hyperrealism moments.
I'm thankful for flapjack I grew up watching older cartoons (I'm Gen z so this would be what is now considered older but to me it was things that I thought had just came out) so for me, it was one of the few shows I watched when it came out. It was like a modern take (for the time) on courage the cowardly dog show, it was something I could discuss with my peers and enjoy myself unlike most the other cartoons at the time.
This show is the reason why some of your favorite animated shows exist.
I loved Flapjack! Your channel has been a nostalgia trip, thanks man!
