Apparently the Show was even more popular in Germany than it was in the US... I mean given the Circumstances that most young Germans grew up with Show like "Lenßen und Partner", "Niedrig und Kuhnt-Kommissare ermitteln" and "K11" running in the Afternoon or early Evening not to mention the sacred "Tatort" on Sunday it doesn´t suprise me.
I also, without trying to be looking throught lenses of nostalgia, think that the german voice of Fillmore fittet his role much better. The bit grindy englisch voice is alright, but doesn't bring the same seriousnes
@@unnameduser5647 i mean just listen to the german digimon openings and compare them to the english ops... The german openings are objectivly better too
Filmore is such a genius show. Making the format of cop show and using to believably teach real lessons to kids is amazing. Like the voice acting had no right being as good as it is.
The way the show acts and treats itself just like an episode of CSI or the like, and they're talking about things like a 'serial shredder' is genuinely so funny.
I dont have many memories of when I was younger, but I distinctly remember loving Filmore so much that I emailed Disney asking them to make new episodes. If only my email was more convincing we may have gotten a third season 😥
Several Fillmore episodes made me tear up. One was Fillmore defending test answers from desperate students. It hit hard how most of the kids had reasons for wanting to cheat but the main guy kept trying his hardest to learn but kept failing over and over. The stakes went higher after the fish's life was on the line. That was just too much. Incredible writing.
This show may have ended too soon but it deserves to be preserved and respected and honored as it was... don't let the big people in charge revive it only to ruin it
True, I use to really want a revival but there’s almost no well written revivals. They’d definitely butcher the show, leaving out all of the old charm, probably just make a new boring show with the Filmore name slapped on
considering it's a show that presents "law enforcement" in a positive way with the corruption mainly coming from "political leaders" pushing for short sighted and poorly planned policies, I doubt they'll go anywhere near it in the near future.
@@rolandswift4311 I grow so tired of politics (right or left) ruining good things; I miss the days back when we could just like something or enjoy something, without that something being used to labels us as being part of this group or that group, due to some kind of stigma people have attached to it. I am a gun owner, and I like "OK KO: Let's Be Heroes," but I think the episode they did on gun control (skeleton remotes) was tone deaf and didn't understand a lot of the problems and issues it was trying to talk about, and I don't think the writers did their research on firearm safety or proper respect for firearms as tools - not weapons - and the episode was honestly just a bunch of mindless liberal extremist driven bullshit. I'm not saying all liberals are extremists or that they have nothing of value to say, and before anyone asks, I'm not a Republican, nor am I a Democrat; I'm more of a Centralist sort of person, and taking a birds eye view of things, I can see both parties are about ready to founce upon each other over the most trivial of things. As a gun owner and supporter of the right to own firearms, I think the OK KO episode in question doesn't explain much of either side of the gun control argument, and seems to present a one sided stance, that suggests all firearms should be destroyed and that anyone who sales guns should be run out of town, which, to me, is insane, and rather extreme. Every other episode of OK KO is generally fine in my opinion, hit or miss, but this one's just kind of a bad strawman argument, but if those are the dumb politics the creators endorse, that's their right as American Citizens every bit as much as it's my right to own an AR-15. There's nothing wrong with putting ideas about politics and beliefs into one's work within reason, but it shouldn't be something that tyrannically rules over whether or not a property in it's whole is good or bad or not, simply based on whether one agrees with or disagrees with the politics of the creator. That dumb episode exists, but it's not the end of the world. Fillmore, regardless of what political opinions are right now on law enforcement, shouldn't be shelved and forgotten based on such things; I'm getting really annoyed of people altering their works or trying to pander to one political party or the other - can't we just go back to letting a show be a show?
I always thought it was funny how big the school seems. And how overexaggurated the cases feel. But knowing that he wrote the story knowing that everything feels big and important in seventh grade it makes so much sense and is somehow very cool xD
How could you not remember Fillmore? That opening theme! But yeah, Fillmore is a great show that was very unique in terms of kids properties, and one of the few kids shows that wasn't strictly a comedy. I also appreciate that Fillmore and Ingrid stayed friends instead of trying to awkwardly ship them together like many shows with a male+female lead do.
Ah, Fillmore was a brilliant show that had great depth and gave a lot of weight to its subjects, while blending the 70s cop show aesthetic into a middle school setting with a surprising amount of ease. I really do hope it gets on Disney+ soon because I've been dying to revisit it.
It's 20 years old? Margery, bring me the medicine bag, I caught a case of the Old! yikes. But honest to god I LOVED the show, it was SO COOL! I wish it was on Disney+ that's all I want
I’m 22 and still watch some episodes sometimes. Filmore is one of those shows that you can always watch because they’re really entertaining. And even if the cases are banal it’s entertaining watching Filmore and Ingrid take on the case and how serious they take it. I mean for example why did the criminals always ran away even after their identity’s were revealed? Like ain’t you gonna come back tomorrow? Love it. One of my all time favorite Disney show
They even had adults run from them once or twice from what I remember. So does the safety patrol have the authority to detain adults in relation to school incidents? More than once I'm sure the real police would have had to get involved but whatever lol
Damn do I miss this show! I actually used its bullying-centred episode in one of my health classes for seventh-graders as a way to show the impact and power of bullying... My students actually liked it, but asked me why it wasn't in 3D... ah, the innocence of childhood.
I loved this show and I'm actually shocked to learn there were so few episodes. I could have sworn there was a lot more but I was a kid and must not have noticed. Watching it on Saturday Disney here in Australia was such a treat growing up.
This is a “do you remember” series. But a few of the things you show, I have never even heard of. Thank you for showing us this. I would have never learned of this without you.
I hold a special place in my heart for Filmore. When I was 13 my family moved to a new state and I lost access to both Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon which was a huge blow to me at that age. But Toon Disney and Nicktoons as channels both stepped up when I needed them to at that time. Filmore was one of my favorite shows from that year-long period.
Dude this was my show! I lived that the continuity of the show allowed for you to solve the case if you were paying attention. Ingrid my one of my heros as a young girl. I remember I. High school writing Fillmore fanfic about what these characters would be doing in high school. It kills me that this show isn't on US Disney plus. All I want is to show this to other people and find others who loved it like I did.
Fillmore was a show I watched all the time a few years ago, while seeing it sometimes on sick days. It's such a fun show that is also a massive love letter to buddy cop shows/movies. I'm pretty sure this show was responsible for my love of detectives and cops stories. Thanks for unlocking those memories like you did with Invader Zim.
You mentioning sick days reminds me of when I stayed home one week straight just watching Filmore everyday cause they were playing some marathon of it all week
i loved this show for the brief time it aired in my country, it was my official and age-appropriate introduction to the crime show genre and honestly set the bar high enough for me to look down on shows it was modelled after later on. great video!
I'm so glad you made this video. I was doing research on this show for while, just for fun, because I really, really love it, and it was so hard to find anything on it online. I swear, I was going through virtual library catalogs of old newspapers trying to find something. I've been searching for a video like this for weeks, I'd almost given up when I found this. Thankyou so much!
This and Spongebob were just my favourite shows on german tv in the 2006-2009 era! Me also being half brown, Fillmore's character was just the definition of cool, the style of the cast, the music, the stories all resonated within me. Although I'll admit that I forgot about Fillmore for a long time, when I rediscovered the show a year ago or so I found out just how much it influenced me subconciously. I love to wear small round glasses, am a film noir fan and I developed a thing for goth girls.
I remember this show, and I appreciate it more nowadays. There were really good shows in this TV block. I hope you might do my favorite show from this time- The Weekenders. This show and Filmore are very underrated.
Filmore has lived rent free in my head for years. For some reason I've never been able to forget it even though for the life of me I can't recall a single episode just scenes and moments
While most commend you for being a free nostalgia trip with every video, I gotta say I admire and respect your dedication, editing, and research. I loved Filmore, was a bit too young to really remember most but my appreciation for shows like these that you talk about only sky rockets when you go into depth about the behind the scenes about them. It's like respecting the creators' works themselves as well. Thanks for another nostalgia trip, but also another lovely vid ( ^‿^)
I don't know where I heard/read it from, but I remember a potential episode where previous students (perps) including Biggie, Jamie and Parnassus team up against the safety patrol. That would have been sweet. BWF
One of the funniest moments in this series is when the destruction of a large model train set is treated as if it were an actual train crash, complete with a character vomiting at the sight of the disaster.
For me this series has always been the Megas XLR of Disney Channel. Two seasons of glorious episodes with a great cast of characters, ended way too soon.
I remembered this show when most people forgot about it years ago. Videos like these make me happy by shedding a light on how many others never forgot the great shows we grew up with.
As someone who was apart of the message board/'street team'/ and the fanfiction community for this series growing up (hey we all have cringe tween moments) -- Thank you for doing this video! I feel like people forget this show or never really got a chance to watch it.
I used to also think that reason was why it's not on the service, but then you see That's So Raven on there. That fully shows Orlando. He's practically in every episode. There's gotta be a reason, and I bet it's a BS one at that. Great video as always.
I loved this show. And I've been at a complete loss for why there's been no DVDs and no streaming. Obviously something is a afoot and somebody should call the Safety Patrol.
Fillmore and The Weekenders were my favourite shows growing up, I'd watch them nearly everyday after school. Both are so underrated and deserves more attention.
I watched Fillmore as a kid but I completely forgot about it until I saw this video. Seeing the characters, they were familiar but I don't recall anything about the show other than I know I watched it in the distant past. If they do add it to Disney+ I will definitely give it a watch.
I remember this cartoon as part of my childhood it was great and the way to modified adult theme crimes into something around not being actually adult theme crimes was fun.
I remember watching this, in Portuguese, and liking it a lot because hall monitors are something that we don't have in my country so it was new to me. Really cool show!
I loved this show. When I first saw it, i thought it was funny how serious this show took itself but i fell in love very quickly, because it was so serious. Problems and feelings that seemed to be not important or overdramatic were taken seriously, because they were. Deep inside a 13 year old goth girl's heart they were serious and it was nice to feel understood. I related so much to Ingrid when I was a kid. She was excentric and had a unique way of solving problems, what made her so valuable for the team and the team, especially Fillmore, appreciated her for this. Back than I missed this special feeling of acceptence for who I was and for the traits that made me special. The show, too helped me to understand that it doesn't madder how many friends you have or that everyone likes you. All you need is a small group of special people who's love and friendship means more than any superficial smile in the hallway and that i'm okay, just the way I am. It takes some time and a lot of patience to find the right people, but this price is worth the way.
Filmore was awesome...it was actually how I got into the whole detective genre... actually to this day I still get flashbacks about a few scenes and episodes...the most common of which was the kid who was lactose intolerant but had eaten fake boiled eggs
You have no idea how much I love this show. I always found time to watch this growing up. These shows that are microcosms of society (Recess, Fillmore etc.) really captivate me.
Funnily enough, my parents liked the sound of "Filmore" so much, they named my brother after it (Philmor). I actually just watched a few episodes on TV. I guess the series will always hold a very "special" place in my life.
Man, this show was my childhood. We had this family tradition of watching one episode of Fillmore together every evening before dinner. Very fond memories!
Thank you so much. I could not for the life of remember this name of this show, but I will forever and always remember the episode that is a parody of gone in sixty seconds. I can vividly remember the chalkboard and the "invisible chalk" on it, and I remember as a kid thinking that was the coolest thing imaginable.
During its time this was my favorite Disney show. I was old enough to get a lot of the references but still young enough to relate. Looking back I also see great irony that might keep one episode off. The main criminal was acting out because she got a early copy of the new book from her favorite series and it had changed the series completely ruining it for the fans. That might be a little too close to home for the house of mouse.
I got into "The Walking Dead" a little more than a year ago, so hearing that Scott Gimple of all people at one point created an animated detective drama kids' show for Disney, *that was the biggest shock I've heard all week!!!!!!!* He seemed really passionate about the series too. Man, they cooked in the 90s. The dialogue is amazing for being said by a bunch of kids.
Fillmore blew my mind as a kid. I could kinda tell it was a ridiculous premise, but I know that what kids do is just as important to them as what adults do is to them. This and Kids Next Door encapsulate that, but with Fillmore being less fanciful it was more impactful. It felt like it respected people my age, treating their concerns and contributions as valid.
I recently rewatched the series. The social commentary worked into the series is just brilliant! I mean the show basically talked about topics like police corruption, the three strike laws and so on in way kids could reflect on the issues.
Having grownup in a primarily white neighborhood , it was a refreshing change. Plus the adult topics stuck with me. Especially the “dry chicken” episode.
I was a massive fan of Fillmore! Back when it first aired, I didn't yet quite have the attention span to follow and comprehend Law & Order, but crime shows became a big point of interest for me. Fillmore was exactly the entry-level show I needed to appreciate these things, but also other details that normally don't even warrant a thought. Though I have to say, my favourite thing about Fillmore was that there were very few "generic" background characters. Basically, (almost) every student with a name will continuously show up in the background, attending school as they should, unless they're related to the case of the current episode. This detail made the whole setting so much more believable and authentic, because paying attention pays off, and in turn helps prepare your mindset to follow and maybe even predict certain twists. Honestly, my mind was blown when I realized how many characters would show up basically in the first few episodes, but sometimes not playing a role until Season 2.
I habitually come back to this show at random times in my life, and I’m so upset that it didn’t blow up as much as it should 😭 thanks for introducing to the new/returning masses!
I never watched Fillmore when it was on tv. I started to watch it though RUclips when I spotted it on the RUclips recommendation list. It’s now one of my go to cartoon series to watch and it’s also one of my favourite cartoons list. Wish they bring it back one day.
As somebody who was a really big fan of detective-stories and watched Midsumer Murders with my mother when I was young (don't judge me too harshly, it is pretty classy about the deaths for the most part and it had the puzzle-solving elements that I always liked), Filmore was absolutely one of my favorite Disney-shows growing up. Each case was really memorable with great and even multi-layered antagonists, it is a show I keep coming back to.
Loved it as a kid, revisited it as a teen and nothing changed it was still the same show that made me think and enjoy the themes of each episode. It was always fun guessing who the culprit was before the show revealed it with analyzing the clues given throughout each episode. This is one of the shows I never forgot and to this day still love so thanks for covering this Jordan this was nice.
I remember the episode with the counterfeit baseball cards with a terrifying level of detail and that is it. I know I watched other episodes but that’s all I remember
Thanks so much for watching! Were you able to check out Fillmore while it was on TV? What are your thoughts on it?
Day 2 of saying hi to Jordan.
Hi
I would love to watch a WAIT...remember Dilbert video someday.
Can u do a video on cow and chicken? ❤❤

Only 26 episodes? I would’ve sworn this show went on for years. It’s so good.
It did go on for years, but in reruns though.
fr😭
Same same
We just didn't care about reruns. It was actually good, so we just watched it and enjoyed it.
This show deserve more

@@BigPurp9 i remember that scen well, she was trying to manipulate philmore into keeping her out of detention by doing the old flame route eh?
Fillmore is easily one of the best Disney animated series of all time.
Wish it was on Disney +
Remember that episode When Ingrid was this 👌🏿 Close to letting a Criminal Get a Way
agree
Recess is its only real competitor
The way the show acts and treats itself just like an episode of CSI or the like, and they're talking about things like a 'serial shredder' is genuinely so funny.
@otdreamer193 Better question yet, what is the truth of the final summon?
True
I dont have many memories of when I was younger, but I distinctly remember loving Filmore so much that I emailed Disney asking them to make new episodes. If only my email was more convincing we may have gotten a third season 😥
Never too late to write to them to put it on Disney plus lol thanks for watching!
that is very on brand
Try writing a 14 pages long email, maybe that'll convince them
All they have to do is to add cougars. It would be an instant success.
What need was forward all so it more reppllys

It's like respecting the creators' works themselves as well.
Thanks for another nostalgia trip, but also another lovely vid ( ^‿^)
I loved this show as the kid, wished they did more seasons, such an underrated show...
I don't know where I heard/read it from, but I remember a potential episode where previous students (perps) including Biggie, Jamie and Parnassus team up against the safety patrol. That would have been sweet.
BWF
One of the funniest moments in this series is when the destruction of a large model train set is treated as if it were an actual train crash, complete with a character vomiting at the sight of the disaster.
I rewatched this a few years ago. Like 2 or so. Thanks for always covering my childhood and nostalgia trips
Its so heart-warming that the creator honoured the man who inspired the character and show itself
For me this series has always been the Megas XLR of Disney Channel. Two seasons of glorious episodes with a great cast of characters, ended way too soon.
I remembered this show when most people forgot about it years ago. Videos like these make me happy by shedding a light on how many others never forgot the great shows we grew up with.
Fillmore was one of my favorite shows. It was so great.
Yes! I have been waiting for you to cover this!!!
Dude, thanks for bringing this back up. Really miss this one when I was a little kid 😊
I loved watching this show as a kid, it was always so interesting.
As someone who was apart of the message board/'street team'/ and the fanfiction community for this series growing up (hey we all have cringe tween moments) -- Thank you for doing this video! I feel like people forget this show or never really got a chance to watch it.
This show needs to be on Disney+! And it needs a comeback re-make!
I used to also think that reason was why it's not on the service, but then you see That's So Raven on there. That fully shows Orlando. He's practically in every episode. There's gotta be a reason, and I bet it's a BS one at that. Great video as always.
I LOVED this show and throughly wished it would have been kept for longer than 2 seasons.
I loved this show. And I've been at a complete loss for why there's been no DVDs and no streaming.
Obviously something is a afoot and somebody should call the Safety Patrol.
Fillmore and The Weekenders were my favourite shows growing up, I'd watch them nearly everyday after school. Both are so underrated and deserves more attention.
I watched Fillmore as a kid but I completely forgot about it until I saw this video. Seeing the characters, they were familiar but I don't recall anything about the show other than I know I watched it in the distant past. If they do add it to Disney+ I will definitely give it a watch.
I remember this cartoon as part of my childhood
it was great and the way to modified adult theme crimes into something around not being actually adult theme crimes was fun.
Just finished a full re-watch of this show like, a month ago. Still great now.
I remember watching this, in Portuguese, and liking it a lot because hall monitors are something that we don't have in my country so it was new to me. Really cool show!
You just unlocked a core memory for me! I loved this show and completely forgot about it!
One of the best. Loved it. Thanks again Jordan. Happy 20 years Filmore!
Thanks for watching!
@@JordanFringe94 You're welcome!
I watched this for the first time like two years ago on RUclips. The show is amazing
Love this channel, absolutely huge nostalgia
I loved this show.
When I first saw it, i thought it was funny how serious this show took itself but i fell in love very quickly, because it was so serious. Problems and feelings that seemed to be not important or overdramatic were taken seriously, because they were. Deep inside a 13 year old goth girl's heart they were serious and it was nice to feel understood.
I related so much to Ingrid when I was a kid. She was excentric and had a unique way of solving problems, what made her so valuable for the team and the team, especially Fillmore, appreciated her for this. Back than I missed this special feeling of acceptence for who I was and for the traits that made me special. The show, too helped me to understand that it doesn't madder how many friends you have or that everyone likes you. All you need is a small group of special people who's love and friendship means more than any superficial smile in the hallway and that i'm okay, just the way I am. It takes some time and a lot of patience to find the right people, but this price is worth the way.
Filmore was awesome...it was actually how I got into the whole detective genre... actually to this day I still get flashbacks about a few scenes and episodes...the most common of which was the kid who was lactose intolerant but had eaten fake boiled eggs
Loved this show as a kid...thanks Jordan for bringing back these memories
Fillmore's face has a morphius vibe
You have no idea how much I love this show. I always found time to watch this growing up. These shows that are microcosms of society (Recess, Fillmore etc.) really captivate me.
Funnily enough, my parents liked the sound of "Filmore" so much, they named my brother after it (Philmor). I actually just watched a few episodes on TV. I guess the series will always hold a very "special" place in my life.
Always worth watching for nostalgia and the new facts def enjoyed your longer vids too
I rewatch this show once every year!
Thank you for remembering "Fillmore." I loved this show growing up, sometimes I can find the episodes of RUclips.
This show is a deep seeded memory
Man, this show was my childhood. We had this family tradition of watching one episode of Fillmore together every evening before dinner. Very fond memories!
That chicken was dry. Real dry. 😂😂
Thank you so much. I could not for the life of remember this name of this show, but I will forever and always remember the episode that is a parody of gone in sixty seconds. I can vividly remember the chalkboard and the "invisible chalk" on it, and I remember as a kid thinking that was the coolest thing imaginable.
During its time this was my favorite Disney show. I was old enough to get a lot of the references but still young enough to relate. Looking back I also see great irony that might keep one episode off. The main criminal was acting out because she got a early copy of the new book from her favorite series and it had changed the series completely ruining it for the fans. That might be a little too close to home for the house of mouse.
Gargoyles, Courage, Danny Phantom, and now Philmore?! Bro the bangerz are nonstop
Goated show
📠
I got into "The Walking Dead" a little more than a year ago, so hearing that Scott Gimple of all people at one point created an animated detective drama kids' show for Disney, *that was the biggest shock I've heard all week!!!!!!!* He seemed really passionate about the series too. Man, they cooked in the 90s. The dialogue is amazing for being said by a bunch of kids.
This show was truly a forgotten gem
this is one of those shows I vividly remember watching as a kid, but could never remember the name of. Thanks for making this!
Fillmore blew my mind as a kid. I could kinda tell it was a ridiculous premise, but I know that what kids do is just as important to them as what adults do is to them. This and Kids Next Door encapsulate that, but with Fillmore being less fanciful it was more impactful. It felt like it respected people my age, treating their concerns and contributions as valid.
I recently rewatched the series. The social commentary worked into the series is just brilliant!
I mean the show basically talked about topics like police corruption, the three strike laws and so on in way kids could reflect on the issues.
Having grownup in a primarily white neighborhood , it was a refreshing change. Plus the adult topics stuck with me. Especially the “dry chicken” episode.
I was a massive fan of Fillmore! Back when it first aired, I didn't yet quite have the attention span to follow and comprehend Law & Order, but crime shows became a big point of interest for me. Fillmore was exactly the entry-level show I needed to appreciate these things, but also other details that normally don't even warrant a thought. Though I have to say, my favourite thing about Fillmore was that there were very few "generic" background characters.
Basically, (almost) every student with a name will continuously show up in the background, attending school as they should, unless they're related to the case of the current episode. This detail made the whole setting so much more believable and authentic, because paying attention pays off, and in turn helps prepare your mindset to follow and maybe even predict certain twists. Honestly, my mind was blown when I realized how many characters would show up basically in the first few episodes, but sometimes not playing a role until Season 2.
To this day, I always hoped Filmore and Ingrid got shipped together. I know its silly but I liked these two! Much like I loved Shego and Dr. D!
I habitually come back to this show at random times in my life, and I’m so upset that it didn’t blow up as much as it should 😭 thanks for introducing to the new/returning masses!
I blame cartoons for my obsession with goth girls.
You are not the only one.
I never watched Fillmore when it was on tv. I started to watch it though RUclips when I spotted it on the RUclips recommendation list. It’s now one of my go to cartoon series to watch and it’s also one of my favourite cartoons list. Wish they bring it back one day.
Chicken was dry
Real dry.
Yessssss I noticed you hadn’t done this one yet and was *gonna* suggest it last week…glad I waited cuz clearly you were ahead of me
As somebody who was a really big fan of detective-stories and watched Midsumer Murders with my mother when I was young (don't judge me too harshly, it is pretty classy about the deaths for the most part and it had the puzzle-solving elements that I always liked), Filmore was absolutely one of my favorite Disney-shows growing up. Each case was really memorable with great and even multi-layered antagonists, it is a show I keep coming back to.
Yes! I do remember, but I could never recall the name or find the series with my weak google foo. Thanks for doing it in one of your videos.
My love of weird cop shows was born here!
Loved it as a kid, revisited it as a teen and nothing changed it was still the same show that made me think and enjoy the themes of each episode. It was always fun guessing who the culprit was before the show revealed it with analyzing the clues given throughout each episode. This is one of the shows I never forgot and to this day still love so thanks for covering this Jordan this was nice.
I remember the episode with the counterfeit baseball cards with a terrifying level of detail and that is it.
I know I watched other episodes but that’s all I remember
