That thing about if Americans get tired of politics being talked about that way, let me just say, Yes.
I think post Obama mainstream comedy really took a nosedive
@@joeygreen8091 i don't think it was obama i think it was the developement of the information age making everything so gray because the net for inspiration is so large. I think the best content is that with an actual goal in mind, instead of a vague recombination of everything before. I think its a matter of everybody wanting to be funny by copying things that other people found funny, but have so much "inspiration" that theres no real reason to evolve. I think what comedy needs is a wave of people realizing derivation doesn't lead to good jokes and instead trying to innovate with newer ideas - not reagan.
Politics in the US have become a collective white noise where everyone and everything sucks. Listening to anything or anyone is pointless because no one is interested in actually making the country better for the average citizen. They both just want more status quo but with a blue or red theme. With topics designed to keep us divided so they can get away with more behind closed doors.
@@thefirstofthelast1181 bros a word wizard‼️ eloquently portraying his thoughts and interpretations on the matter🗣️🔥🔥🔥
It always feels like the writers never read through any good satirical book or watched any good satirical show before. They get away with having politics because they literally aren’t shoving the politics into the audience’s face. It’s atleast somewhat subtle.
I live in USA and can confirm, we are siiiiick of political centered humor. Especially when most of the time its not really humor, and just people stating their sidings in an upbeat tone. Plus its usually just the same few jokes told by way too many people.
I think Mark said it best himself in this video "escapism what's that here's some more horrible political nonsense pushed down your throat" It's basically what movies have become now too. We can't have just fun enjoyable entertainment we have to put "the message" in there anywhere and everywhere we possibly can no matter how poorly it fits.
The problem is that satire is timeless. In a political democracy no less. Its why South Park is good, because it leans heavily in the first Amendment but at least tries to be subtle about it.
Shows like Fairview just regurgitate mindless political talking points because they can. Its annoying af and not satire.
I heard someone say that political humor, for the most part, isn't made to make people laugh, but to make people agree with the teller. And that's why so many of these shows fail
@@legofan7499
The problem with "political satire" these days is it's as subtle as being hit across the face with a 2x4. Especially considering where the discourse (or lack thereof) is these days there's no real room for careful nuanced humor. It's just orange man dumb, he do dumb stuff.
Though most late-night talk show hosts and stuff like that do share my ideology, I watch those programs to let loose a little bit and have fun, but instead I end up getting lectured. Honestly kind of sick of it and I'm glad south park hasn't fallen into the same trap of picking and sticking with sides.
It's insane to me how disconnected from everything corporate execs can be. How can you look at something like Fairview and think that's it's in anyway a good idea
Because they thought it was a safe bet with it being produced by Stephen Colbert, when Stephen Colbert was extremely popular with his anti-Trump rhetoric. That's about it.
@@xxkillbotxx7553that shit wasn't popular lmao his Trump era jokes are universally hated and it old real quick. Even if you don't support Trump it would be hard to deny the fact that none of those shows were funny.
@@Hotep982 Yeah not funny to the people politically center and right. It is very clear that liberals ate that humor up. It's why these shows still exist. Just because you find something unfunny does not mean that it was "universally hated"
@@xxkillbotxx7553 So you think every single liberal liked these shows?? Yeah that makes a lot of sense it's not like people are individuals or anything. Also if you check the ratings on these shows you'll understand where "universally hated" means there are not many reviews praising any of those dumbass shows and the ones that do are mostly talking about the animation. So yes, these shows are universally hated and those shows exist because people in the media run with those awful jokes it does not mean a specific base is enjoying them.
@@Hotep982 Are you disabled? No I didn't say every liberal likes them lmao
Imagine asking people from like WW2 era America if they wanted to see a political cartoon and they think it’s gonna be one of those newspaper cartoons but then they’re forced to watch all of Fairview
Seeing the people they’re fighting for and their beliefs they’d probably lay down arms and quit. I don’t think any of them would’ve given their lives if they knew this was what it was for.
@@XGrimzukiXI disagree, I think Fairview is so terrible they’d grab their rifles and shoot their brains out. TBH they might be a little weirded out by the idea of being non-binary but I mean…Spanish Flu and the Great Depression had just happened at the time. Hell, even Polio. I don’t think America is that different.
@@XGrimzukiX We had to have South Park to get to Fairview, and I'd fight with my life if it was for South Park.
The problem with the fairview designs is that the faces are semi-realistic while their bodies are too cartoony. It doesn't look unpleasant like in family guy but it just looks uncanny.
they look like bitmojis: the show
Also doesn’t help when they stand still they look f-ing lifeless
They look like Rec Room back when it was VR only.
Exactly!
If you’re gonna make the bodies cartoonish, the faces should match! We’d understand they were people.
@@theartistknownas9910
The look like cutouts you could knock down with a tap of the finger.
Fun fact: Hanna Barbera did a simular thing when Scooby Doo blew up in the early 70s, except to a more extreme extent (there are so many clones they made).
Saban entertainment did the same with power rangers
One of their clones was called “Goober and the Ghost Chasers” which I think had a crossover with Scooby Doo
@MisterZeke
I remember Fangface and basically was “what if Shaggy could turn into Scooby?”
@@Markiegee55 With ghost Elvis played by Jay Leno
My first thoughts seeing the fairview icon at 3:54:
Why does fairview look like a game you'd see from 2015-2017, being primarily online and living a terribly short life span, or a lifespan that goes on for too long with too few players?
Yes
it looks like a mockbuster platformer made for the wii
@@sinanyldz8913
The Wii?
This would've been on mobile devices.
fr, its either a game that very few people played but they all loved it or a game people didnt even realize went offline 5 years ago
it looks like the kind of legally distinct game you'd see someone playing in a different animated tv show
Fun Fact: Block 13 actually isn’t a ripoff. When it was made, it’s intent was not to gain the success of South Park.
SP had been banned in Kuwait, so, Nawaf Salem Al-Shammari adapted it into a different show.
He had LOVED South Park when it still aired on Kuwaiti television. He was upset to see it go. He wanted to bring back South Park in his own way so that the people of Kuwait could love it the way he did. This meant making Block 13. It ended up being a huge hit over there, given it was one of the first *technically* original cartoons from Kuwait.
damn, that's pretty cool.
so its actually a based show
@@zippix67 uhuh‼️
To quote SaberSpark's review about this show:
They wanted to draw characters like Archer but gave up from the neck down.
Even then they gave up and went bitmoji
I said that _Fairview_ looks like _Archer_ and Weebles or _Higglytown Heroes_ had an ugly baby 💀
Sad Fact: Legends of Chamberlain Heights actually predicted Kobe Bryant’s death in the episode, “End of Days”, where he is seen climbing out of a crashed helicopter with two trophies. The episode was removed from the Comedy Central website and other places because of it aging horribly, and CC later apologized for the episode’s content.
Wow, they made a joke that someone who frequently flies in a helicopter crashed in a helicopter? That sure is a prediction. Did you know that, if you look close enough, the sky is blue in The Simpsons? They predicted it!!
@@dominikblack8943 I mean it was a very easy prediction but he could've died from other things
@@kaylaHat True, but it's no different than "predicting" that a motorcycle owner is going to die in a motorcycle crash. Sure, he could die by other means, but odds are it's going to be in a motorcycle crash. That isn't a prediction, that's just probability. Same goes here, Kobe rode in a helicopter many, many times. They didn't "predict" that he would die, they used probability to show that if someone uses a helicopter that much, they're probably gonna die in one
@@dominikblack8943 yeah as I said it was VERY easy to guess it. But yeah the term predict may not fit
@@dominikblack8943 You're making it sound way more likely. He could have been shot just as likely, or a car crash _more_ likely. A crazed fan, he could choke to death on food before a helicopter crash statistically speaking. *51* people die per year in helicopter crashes, stop acting like they predicted a dog would bark.
8:52 The fact that they unintentionally made an adult version of Higgily Town Heros, but without any charm.
Of all networks, Comedy Central has the longest list of cancelled television shows. Like 9 out of 10 Comedy Central series wind up getting canceled after just one or two seasons. It's been this way for over 20 years now.
If you mean canceled television shows that are animated?
Then yeesh, I thought Fox was in the top running.
Failed clones make me appreciate South Park, a timeless 1997 classic even more
Jesse Heisenberg
Here befire Heisenberg, Heisenbergs even more.
😮
Im sorry but Highest rated salesman 1997 big shot moment
I've seen you 2 Times today
South park worked because of the 2 masterminds behind it, the way Matt and Trey are so close friends that you can feel the soul in their high pitched voices, with each new member being part of a family, there's nothing more wholesome than seeing how they recorded Ike's voice, stories came out thanks to both dudes thinking what would be funny to do, or remembering the latest news or experience they had.
A lot of those shows forget that south park is not sucessful because they make hot takes about the newest trend but because 2 guys playing with comedy central rules managed to come up with cool concepts not seen in television while at the same time getting away with it because most of it is seen in the shoes of 4 kids who don't know what an erection is and say Fuck because they think is funny
Another thing is that South Park is known as the "equal opportunity dumper", aka it just satirizes everything without really taking a blatant side (left, right, and center all get crapped on by having their flaws in full, merciless view). Pretty much every failed clone attempt fails because they're political mouthpieces serving one specific side, which completely defeats the point of South Park style satire.
My favorite example is the episode about tolerance. About how cheering on sexual predators is not the same as accepting homosexuality just because the predator is homosexual, as that's not tolerance and a massive insult to all homosexual people who are not sexual predators. Any/every other lazily made South Park clone tolerance narrative ends up being exactly what South Park itself satirized (putting a type of person on a pedestal while ignoring the flaws and trying to avoid acknowledging said flaws), which makes it fodder for South Park to crap on, rather than anything that can even attempt competing with South Park.
dude the fairview characters are LITERALLY bitmojis. like EXACTLY like them on a bobble body.
I actually really enjoyed Legends of Chamberlain Heights when it was airing. I found the jokes really funny. I just wish it appealed to more people.
Same, I really enjoyed watching that show and honestly wish it was still around
The fact it was Comedy Central who made the knock offs 😂
I know right😂
kinda gives off the same vibes as Nickelodeon trying to do the same with Spongebob
I'd wager Comedy Central is/was desperately looking for something to replace South Park with that's less controversial. Like they believe that they can find a safer alternative that's just as popular and inexpensive, that way they can cancel South Park and not have to deal with it anymore, but they can't wash their hands of it because they're terrified of killing their golden goose before they find a new one.
This is a lot like when hanna Barbara where the ones making the scooby doo clones.
@@MoostachedSaiyanPrince sounds like the plot of a South Park episode tbh
There are VERY few people in the US that like political "comedies" like Fairview. That's major contributing factor to why it failed. Especially the way these kinds of shows tend to just relentlessly attack the opposite side of the political spectrum their writers support. They see Parker and Stone's political takes and think they can do the same, while completely missing that South Park is only funny despite their political takes because they mock EVERYONE, rather than acting like a propaganda machine that tries to convince you that everyone that opposes them is evil/dumb.
I think the creators see South park's success as people enjoying political comedies. Which is fair. But they forget that South park covers current events (not exclusively politics) while having another storyline that focus only on the characters' dramas and developments. Most of South park's most famous and classic episodes are just the boys doing stuff. And the most important thing is that when South park gets political, it is unbiased most of the time and calls out both sides - it's more about the ridiculousness and absurdity of the situations and actions, rather who is committing it.
It seems like we get real excited at the promos because it totally owns the libs/cons. Then we actually watch an episode and wish it was just funny instead
Colbert is a delusional clown that has NEVER been funny.
@@mahogara I mean it doesn’t help that any time someone’s asking for a southpark episode based off something it’s like “they should do an episode based of this current thing so I can make an opinion off it”
As a guy in the middle of the political spectrum and dont really follow up on political news: I don't mind when South Park goes political because it attacks both sides and doesn't do it as a way that makes fun of the audience for not believing what the creators believe, but makes fun of everybody.
Fairview looks something strait out of iCivics 💀
One other reason why these shows like South Park, Family Guy, Simpsons etc are popular is because they throw shots at everyone. Idk why it’s so hard for adult comedy shows to advertise adult comedy and then just not have adult comedy
Arthur actually did a parody of South Park in one of their earlier seasons. They replicated the art style pretty good, the aliens even cameoed too.
There was also a brief reference to cartman in Powerpuff Girls
Yesss
Arthur the aardvark, Arthur?
@@piperformerlycassette Yeah, if you search up “South Park reference in Arthur” the clip should come up. They referenced beavis and butthead in that episode too
@@piperformerlycassette
Just looked it up, it's true
I just realized Mark's Irish accent becomes more pronounced the more agitated he is
The same thing happens to American southern accents lol
what hes irish why does he sound so american until he says certain words
@@jakeclaudell3185it's such a jumpscare
it’s kinda obvious when he pronounces certain vowels
@@jakeclaudell3185i think he tries lessening his accent when recording. For us americans who can't understand certain accents (god help me if a scottish person starts speaking while angry)
I noticed he mentioned using his "normal voice" during i think the every spongebob episode video.
If this is the case, i gotta say i very much appreciate it.
I don't know what Sarth Park is.
Drawn Togheter is WAY BETTER in Spanish, specially with the Mexican dub. The dub really changes a LOT of the jokes and the voice acting is so good that made the show good
As an American yes political stuff gets exhausting but the main reason that it tends to happen is because our politics are beyond parody so it is hard to make anything that sounds crazier than the stuff we hear on the news
*Florida Man gets arrested for eating pancakes in the middle of the road*
It sounds like a straw man argument if you don’t know the context.
It’s annoying if you do know the context.
Man eats a crocodile and gets arrested for being obese
it's because America loves Propaganda
@@CLASSYTUXYFGAMaybe we SHOULD arrest obese people
Imo the only other show that did political humor as good as South Park was the Boondocks. It’s not in your face or preachy or on the nose, its just an extremely good satiric take on the economic & racial issues in America, while also being one of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen. Too bad it never really got a true ending 😔
The issue with most political comedy shows is they view the comedy as secondary, when it should be the primary thing. Comedy should carry the political side, not the other way around
If you think The Boondocks' politics aren't "in your face, preachy, and on the nose," then you've never seen the show
@@thecaptain6520when they bring up political stuff in the boondocks it either feels like it's all satire or done in a pretty funny way or it speaks a bit of volume and it does feel truthful to how things are in real life
Uncle ruckus (no relation) is still the funniest cartoon character ever
I’ve been kinda wanting to watch the Boondocks for a while, your comment was the push I needed to watch it finally.
Trey and Matt will always be legends for making such a legendary show ever
wanna try that again, bud?
I loved Little Bush! When you were 15, punk rock, and watching Comedy Central at that time it was right up your alley.
They should've made a Bababooey based South park clone.
That would've been huge 😌
Am I the only one that wants that word to die?
@@daelen.cclark i want slay and yass
but idk i will just wait till the word gets bored or something
@@daelen.cclark the only ones I want dead are “booba” and “mommy”. One just makes you sound like you have your own penis for a brain while the other just makes you sound incestral combined with that, which is most common with low-lifes who live off of porn.
@@daelen.cclark it basically is dead
@@Dummy4881you finna slayyyy those words until they yass all over you
I remember really hating Legends of Chamberlain Heights. That episode where they made drugs so strong that whoever takes it loses their meat still haunts me to this day.
Oh no
I remember there being an episode where it was the apocalypse, and there was a scene that showed Kobe Bryant escaping a crashed helicopter, fast forward years later...
@@ndGio it seems like they predicted it some kind away
Wtf I loved that show
legends was funny af, yall probably didnt get the jokes and nuances .
"Americans, Does it get tiring to hear about politics?"
Most sane citizens of the US: "OHOHOHOoooo!- Yes."
A couple days ago i was sick and i fell asleep with comedy central playing and i woke up in the middle of the night and legends of chamberlain heights was on and i thought i was having a fever dream.
When mentioning Farview's art style, along with caricature artists and Archer, there's also a hint of Mii characters in fing streetpass mii plaza with their ball hands and no legs
They kinda look like bitmojis
It's an aggressive assault on the ears and the eyes. Everything about it was bland as hell even though it was constantly trying to be offensive.
To answer your question, Mark, yes, the American media's obsession with political satire gets very annoying. Honestly, it's gotten to the point where I've given up on most modern shows and movies. I don't want to be mindlessly lectured by extremist political views every single time I decide to watch something.
Yep. Couldn’t have put it better myself.
For me, it’s not “keep politics out” more as it is “story over lecture”.
@@daelen.cclark But how is "story over lecture" really working when the shear uttering of a concept could trigger the "lecturing mode" in your viewers? It's understandable behaviour to tune "lecturing phrases" out. Even "in these uncertain times" gets people to tune out because it seems preachy and dishonest... even back in 2021 people had enough of it. Even if someone just meant it in a friendly and honest manner.
I love how the moment he mentions he's an Irish immigrant, an Irish accent I didn't even notice before just suddenly kicks in💀
7:55 Another thing about South Park and the way they handle political issues is that instead of giving one full, direct view on the idea, they usually use comedy as a vessel to portray how ridiculous that idea is regardless of who made it.
Fun Fact: Lil’ Bush’s VA, Chris Parson, is also the voice of Junkrat from Overwatch, as well as the voice SyFy’s bumpers.
Chris Parson was in a lot of weird projects then, he was also in the Ctrl+Alt+Delete animated series and Guy White the "Closet Conservative" on The 1/2 Hour News Hour which was Fox News's attempt to make a conservative Daily Show.
As an American, I can definitely say that I am SO tired of all the forced in politics. I just want shows that act as escapism or comedy. Having some political message forced in completely knocks me out of it.
This is why people watch anime
@@pingspoofer832 shush
@Zenkichi but doesn't that have politics too
@@PlaystationFreak719 Very little and depends on what you watch
@@pingspoofer832 though much more than you think, though not as obvious
Fairview is so visually disgusting. These are literally just real faces traced lazily in a „simplified” way. No character, no style… just nothing.
I was shocked when you said that "Lil Bush" came out in 2007. Based on that animation style and quality, I had assumed it was from the early 2000s.
It’s insane Comedy Central actually made and released this, it makes all the other South Park clones look somewhat good😂 when I first saw this advertised I thought it was a mobile game
It's like all the characters were made using the creator's personal iphone avatars
17:48 That scream timed a little bit after the zoom in was hilarious!
The fairview characters look like they would be characters that you would create when making an avatar for a big soulles corporation (like facebook or something)
You can't recreate something like South Park. It's one of a kind
What's annoying is no matter how often I've heard that said and how true it is it's still attempted even though it's going to fail every single time. Just the very look of Fairview and I knew it was doomed right from the get-go.
An ugly stupid,show that wasn't fun to look at or fun to listen to in any way shape or form.
it's one in a krillion /ref
I’m genuinely shocked you didn’t talk about the Kobe Bryant clip from Legend of Chamberlain Heights. That was insane.
I’m not sure Mark even knows who Kobe Bryant is
I remember watching it when it aired and didn’t think much of it and just thought it was hilarious. Now I’m blown away that they practically predicted his death
Fairview haunts me because when I was in the psych ward, all I could see were constant ads for it as I typically picked South Park
Fairview looks like if someone made a show with the Facebook bitmojis.
Yes.
*Yes it does get tiring to hear about politics all the time.*
Can confirm, it do be annoying
Comedy Central making South Park clones is like a middle aged man trying to go back to there high school days
More like a CEO making bootlegs of their own products and trying to be their own competition.
They already have the gold, why try to make all this pyrite?
Yes, yes it is very frustrating watching a show and then having that show force it’s message down your throat.
The COVID-19 episode is so bad it’s nothing but the mayor and the family to say remember Covid that happened am I right no also cancel culture and vaccines modern South Park but if it was an entirely different show shut up no one cares sup shoving your views down my throat
Lol, making several political cartoons that immediately flop is so Stephen Colbert 😂
Dude you unlocked a random childhood memory with Higglytown Heroes. Can't remember what that shows about, but the art style suddenly popped in my mid 20's brain right now.
I actually really dig the way Chamberlain Heights looks. Reminds me a lot of experimental flat looking cartoons from the late 90's/early 2000's cartoons like Pelswick or Sheep in the Big City, or like an animated segment from Sesame Street
And South park, of course
Legends is underrated af.
Same I liked chamberlain heights a lot
Chamberlain heights was hilarious
I was thinking home movies
Not gonna lie. I loved That’s my and Lil’ Bush. I may just do a video on this now. I remember I was in highschool and that’s my bush was on and quoting it with my friends all the time. Fun times!
Around 2:30 you show Clío of two babies on a couch. I remember seeing this show come on Comedy Central a lot as a kid, kind of forgot about it. Seeing it here reminded me of it, but I can’t remember it’s name
These shows are what people who haven't seen a single episode of South Park think South Park is like.
As 16 year old American I can confirm it does get pretty tiring hearing politics in school,hanging out with friends etc
As an ADULT, it's tiring. Especially when it's expected that's all you care about.
As someone who’s been into it, yeah it is
correct me if i am wrong but i think that talking about politics in a TV show back in the day would get you banned cause it was so controversial unless it was done in a way that's acceptable (and kids shows completely ignored those). but nowadays everything is a "political commentary" which is tiring and i wish more media and animation embrace the fact it's an "escape from reality" instead of reminding us.
You're literally a product of them intentionally forcing politics into "child"-centred media... I believe it used to be illegal, or at least heavily frowned upon. Now it's just "gotta brainwash them when they're young".
Thank Christ most forms of media are completely failing and people like Mark (and his team) are putting out better quality content than basically anything available on streaming/TV.
I wish they'd just stop doing it lol
"Sarth Park"
Yez
I appreciate the uptick in videos Mark is making about South Park. Also, Mark’s editing is phenomenal. It’s so clean and has such a unique style. His team does a fantastic job.
Thank his editing and sound mixing team brah, they CARRY
@@Mariesun thanks for telling me!
As someone who watched Digman I was actually pleasantly surprised, it doesn’t rely on weird meta-humor and it seems to have more of that inside job type thing going on, which I like but to each their own I guess.
As a person who lives in Fairview New Jersey this show is in accurate as they don’t have a high school im very disappointed that they got half of it right-Fairview watcher (2022)
I love how In drawn together they visit south park an Kenny’s the only one Alive 😂
Drawn Together is a series I have a mixed relationship with. I adore its creativity and style (almost a love letter to animation) but a fair amount of the shock is slightly unpleasant to me. Almost a gem.
Kinda reminds me of Frank Zappa's proclivity for sometimes eye-roll inducing shock humor (he even made a compilation of his most offensive songs). The difference is that he was an extremely gifted musician who could back it up.
"Sarth Park"
Killing me with it. He says Sarth Park so many times
You totally mischaracterized the Drawn Together movie. It wasn't dumping on South Park because they're popular. It was dumping on them for doing the same absurd, immature, extremely offensive humor as drawn together, but shielding themselves from the backlash by using their jokes as a vehicle for social commentary. I like both Drawn Together and South Park, but it's definitely true that a show that doesn't end with a good message potentially faces less backlash than one that just does it purely for the sake of being offensive and funny.
I whole heartedly thought Fairview was AI generated
To me, the most bizarre South Park clone will always be the episode of Arthur where it got spoofed alongside Dr. Katz and Beavis and Butthead
And it was the best one too
I DONT KNOW WHY THEY DONT BRING BACK NATHAN FOR YOU.. one of the best informative comedies of all time
It got too meta for corporate. Lol
Have you been watching his new show The rehearsal?
It's basically just a long Nathan for you bit
@@mauirandall8176 no I wasn't aware I just started watching the for you again series after all these years after seeing it on my feed.. will defiantly check it out!!
Damn dude seeing that Legends of Chamberlain Heights ad unlocked a lot of blocked memories
"Does it ever get tiring?" Yes. Yes it does.
Drawn Together is my favourite animated comedy of all time. Crazy voice cast, cool idea combining different animation types, extremely offensive and nobody is given a pass. The movie was the worst thing, but the series was something I've rewatched more than Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy. Would love to see a video on this series, despite knowing a lot of people find it too offensive and hate it.
I liked Drawn Together as well and wouldn't say it was trying to rip off South Park just because it was edgy/offensive. The characters are intentional rip-offs of beloved cartoons for the sake of satire. One of the better ones
The movie was ok kinda but not as good as the rest of the stuff I think.
Apparently by the time they got to the movie about half the team was on other projects or left and they ran on a shoestring budget. So I am amazed they had enough money for enough animation work for an hour.
That show was hilarious and ahead of its time, i love it
I loved that episode where the black female character was on that Wheel of Fortune-esque game show and she got angry because she thought the answer to the puzzle was going to be the N-word. The answer was actually "nickers" but she saw "ni__ers" and automatically assumed it was going to say something else 😂
fun fact: the voice of Dick Cheney in Lil' Bush Dave Mitchell is now the current voice of Knuckles in the games
Not any particular characters, just knuckles in general
Fairview looks like a bunch of Bitmojis on top of Mii character bodies
10:06 Such a good cut, NGL
That Little Bush cartoon unlocked some hidden memories for me. I remember my dad and I loving it when it came out, but I had no idea who any of the characters were since I was 12 and the only thing I knew about Bush was he's some old dude my dad didn't like for beimg anti-union.
Honestly, the only thing I remember from it is lil dick Cheney saying something about cleansing fire. Now am I about to go rewatch it to find the context? Nope. Am I gonna use the phrase every now and again when I use something relating to fire in a game? Yep. Thanks Lil Dick
In Poland we actually had our own South Park ripoff called "The Lordz o' Flys". It became even more popular then the south park in our country. It takes place in a small polish city where the characters are elementary schoolers doing weird shit.
Haven't watched it in years (it ended in 2011) but I remember enjoying it. Although the humour is heavy on polish culture it would be cool to see someone outside of it talk about it.
Classic!
I’ll check it Out. Any episodes available online and subtitled? I don’t speak Polish
@@mattkennedy6115 sadly no as far as i know, you can find p much any episode online in polish though
Fairview looks like if Snapchat made a adult cartoon based on Bitmoji.
Hahaha, that dude throwing his shoes at George Bush was freaking hilarious!
When a good show is made, it's inevitable that many others will "get inspiration" from it
These days the problem with making something good is it's immediately cancelled after a single season.
I mean yeah it's kind of a meme with all the nonsense over at Netflix but I'm serious.
Nothing good these days lasts, meanwhile big mouth....
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu Yeah, big corporations are always cancelling amazing shows just to bring us shitty ones. The fact that netflix cancelled Everything sucks! and The Punisher, but big mouth gets renewed for a new season every year is just sad.

Like I said the problem is the answer is not what people want to hear. These companies prioritize cheap crap not quality.
And it's always quantity over quality. I mean luckily we still get some good stuff but unfortunately cable is as I mentioned is essentially dead and a total dumping ground for successful or not successful stuff. These days it's just about filling the numerous empty hours on these channels. Comedy Central hasn't really been (truly) relevant in a significant way since probably the mid 2010's. And I would say that true for the vast majority of pretty much any channel across cable.
South Park has the "Simpson's did it" episode
“Saurth Park” alright bro I can’t listen to this anymore
I’m actually a big supporter of chamberlain heights, and I don’t think you can really call it a South Park clone. The art style is completely different, it takes place mainly in the hood, most episodes revolves around basketball, sex, or drugs, and it mainly follows the lives of black teenagers. The only real comparisons between the shows are that they have simplistic character designs and crude humor, but that’s par for the course for the vast majority of western adult animation.
Heavy agree. I’m sortof shocked that he’s comparing them
Legends of chamberlain heights is my favorite show
Eh, maybe if the movements were more fluid, it could’ve worked.
nah chamberlain heights was fire, they just got on the wrong network at the wrong time, and i know im not the only one who would love a new season on hbo max or paramount plus or something
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
I love how 90% of the comments are just making fun of this guys accent or saying it's just insufferable
“In the last 24 hours!”
“WHAT THE FU-“

I genuinely really enjoy LOCH but for some reason, this is my favorite moment
agreed lol
The creator of the oblongs originally intended for it to be about his character “creepy suzie” but UPN insisted he make a family out of some random characters and made sizing one of Milo’s friends
That was actually the WB
Just the other day I was remembering that era of putting a new animated show on after South Park every month. I'm shocked to see that that it's STILL happening.
I also seem to remember a show about Italian stereotypes I can't remember the name of. The first episode was about a Godfather stage play. It didn't last long...
are you thinking of "fugget aboot it?"
@@ZbJeeBies That might be it. Also, apparently, it lasted three seasons!
Lil bush looks nostalgic, reminds me of all those older new grounds and independent animations. Real sketchy flash stuff like Lenore.
The reason I don't mind politics in South Park is precisely because it is unbiased. The show has a habit of making fun of both major sides of an issue. Even when an entire episode is pushing a certain narrative, the ending will sometimes completely contradict the narrative they had been going with. Essentially, this leaves the show feeling like it's not talking down to the viewer. The writers aren't acting like they're smarter than everyone else, or that their view on things is the only valid one.
it's also a show that happens to talk about politics instead of a show that's political.
Even though the creators of South Park are left leaning, they at least try to make fun of other left leaning people as well.
@@hamishstewart5324 if I had to call the creators bias, it wouldn’t be left
@hamish They don’t lean on the left bc they make a mockery of them countless times
7:22 as an American I can safely say that whenever I see a show like this get made, my first thought is always "oh God not another one!" And that's mostly because the creators of these shows care more about venting their political belfiefs, more than the actual quality of said show
“Now watch this drive” is iconic idc
I love it when RUclips randomly recommends you a video you know from the title you’ll enjoy
17:45 That small edit was funnier than the entire scene shown
Whenever I watch shows like Santa Inc, Our Cartoon President or Fairview that do nothing but spout the most _basic_ and _obvious_ take you can on current politics, I feel nothing but vicarious embarrassment for everyone involved. Nobody _talks_ like the way these shows make their characters talk in real life.
"I remember seeing commercials when I was a kid"
Show released in 2016.... Dear Lord I was working night shift by then

Beavis & Butt-Head is the only animated show that has aged like fine wine. Every episode is a classic and plus they're back on the air on Comedy Central.
Technically it’s paramount+ but okay
@@ABlueyFan But Comedy Central is hosting the TV premiere airings. MTV2 actually 2 days ago aired 8 Season 9 episodes to promote Season 10 coming out this April 20 on Paramount+.
"Only animated show that has aged like fine wine." That it has and likewise South Park.
@@MissDavids I honestly kinda disagree with South Park. It feel's like they lost their edge a little. Like the Tate joke, it was funny but I knew it was coming before they even aired it. Whatever is big in media is the next South Park joke. TikTok. PC culture. BLM riots. Still watch every episode when I have the chance though haha
@Alligator with wifi I'll see South Park through to the end anyway. Same with American Dad and Futurama when the all new series of the latter finally shows up. Not giving up on either one. Remember, Alligator: There are folks out there who still refuse to walk away from The Simpsons, Family Guy and Rick and Morty in later seasons.
7:30 100% yes! I got burned out by politics 20 years ago and it just keeps getting worse. I don't watch a lot of new shows or movies because so much of it isn't entertainment, it's just more politics and not very well done at that. I do like political satire if it's good or subtle, but there's no such thing as subtlety anymore.
Agreed. It seems like thanks to the advent of Social Media in the mid 2010s, it gave any rando a megaphone to spout their views on any current event out there. So it more or less inadvertadly opened the floodgates to people to use Movies and TV as soapbox for their take on current hot button issues. (IE Velma, Santa inc. Black Christmas 2019, Fairview, etc.)
It's because most political satirists went from wanting to make fun of the system to dunking on the "opposing team".
2016 broke Hollywood's brain
02:45 Amazingly, Drawn Together or "La casa de los dibujos" is an institution on latinamerica. Not as big as something like the simpsons or dbz obviously, but it's well known and memed.
Mostly because of the god-tier dub.
i think about lil bush every day of my lifeeeee i saw him at the top corner and got so excited
