Time for a blast from the past! These aren't just your dads cartoons, but Matt and Brian talk about the very early days of animation all the way through the 50's and 60's as they discuss the forerunners of animated television: Disney, Warner Brothers, and Hannah-Barbara, to name a few
Adam and Dr. Drew open the show discussing Adam's distaste for Hannah Barbara and Sid & Marty Kroft TV programming for children as they fleeced America for many years. The conversation then turns to some of the entertainment they've been consuming, eventually landing on a mutual love of Netflix's 'Formula 1: Drive to Survive' docuseries. Drew then brings up the current lockdowns in Shanghai and marvels at the similarities between that and what was done in Wuhan in 2020 despite the wealth of data we have now that we didn't have then.

Nate tries to see what Welles was setting up to be taken away. -Cult Movie -- "Explorers" (1985) -Joe Dante's very Speilbergian adventure with young Ethan Hawke and River Phoenix building their own flying saucer. It's successful whimsy for once, plus, as with all 80s movies, there's peeping.
[BRAD's PICK] "Adult swim... all kids out of the pool!!!" To anyone growing up in the late 90s/early 00s that had access to cable, this quote represented freedom... It meant that in a few short minutes, your beloved Cartoon Network was going to turn into a raunchy and disgusting wonderland of absurd comedy and uncut anime. This was still in the age of dial up internet, so there was no streaming, social media, or internet memes yet; a stone age of sorts. Between 2001 and 2005, Adult Swim gave us a new kind of comedy show that wasn't just a sitcom, including Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab 2021, and The Brak Show (not to mention Space Ghost Coast to Coast that existed prior to that). By revitalizing old Hannah-Barbara animations and repurposing them into new shows, Cartoon Network was breaking ground with what could be done with intellectual property. These new shows were remixes of old beloved shows, which is why I think they pair so well with hip-hop, a genre that takes unused gems of music and gives them new life. In 2005, they decided to take this connection it's logical conclusion. Enter Dangermouse and MF Doom. Dangermouse has started his rise with the much-hyped "The Grey Album" (a mashup of Jay-Z's "The Black Album" and The Beatles' "The White Album"), but at this point is still underground, as he hasn't broken through the stratosphere with Gnarls Barkley yet. MF Doom is perhaps at the peak of his underground cred, coming off the heels of some of his best projects, King Geedorah, Viktor Vaughn, and Madvillain, as well as his most critically acclaimed MF Doom release "Mm... Food." The idea of Dangermouse, MF Doom, and Adult Swim combining their street cred to form this conceptual masterpiece is still completely baffling. It's very one-of-a-kind, capturing a moment of early Adult Swim and 2000s underground hip hop, and I don't think it will ever be done again quite like this (short of an actual sequel by DangerDoom)...

Ruh-roh! Zoinks! Jinkies! Fuck! Scooby-Doo is back (well, it really never left if you've been paying attention), and of course, it is a CGI kids film. Scoob! is a reboot of the classic Hannah-Barbara cartoon Scooby-Doo and got the same star-studded treatment a lot of these movies have. Of course, these movies also have a... "mixed" reception, so Scoob! is going to have to work overtime to win over fans. Also, it's worth noting that Scoob! is the second major movie to be released on the "premium on-demand" format, so it's also going to have to prove the worth of PVOD movies. We'll see what happens. Does Scoob! set the groundwork for a Hannah Barbara cinematic universe, or is it just a generic kids film in a mask? Find out on this mysterious episode of THE MOVIE HOPPERS!!!!!

From Mickey Mouse, Tom and Jerry to Hannah Barbara, this cartoon definitely belongs on that list for it’s impact on the universe of cartoons. There was the world before Ren and Stimpy and the one after, and I am so glad that I am alive to see the one after. This show has hands down made my childhood what it is, if not directly then definitely indirectly, almost every cartoon that has come after it pays homage to it in some way or another. All of our modern wacky cartoons are thanks to the creators of Ren and Stimpy who pushed the limits on animation to where anyone with a wild imagination can have the time of their life. Let’s Toon Along! to an episode and enjoy the brilliance together.

I'm back... This week I tackle the heavily controversial 'The Banana Splits Movie', the horror-reboot (rebootquel?) of a beloved Hannah Barbara children's show. Does this one deserve the controversy or is it another lazy slasher film? The second film I will be reviewing is the upcoming Umbrella Entertainment release 'The Wheel'. A science-fiction film set in a prison. Sounds like a blast. Have a listen and hear my thoughts on both these films... Thank you all for your support, it means a great deal to me.

In 2011, a man had a dream. A dream to create the best action/car/heist movie of all time set in Brazil, using an already established franchise and characters people already knew. Unfortunately, Hannah Barbara would not give up the rights to Speed Buggy, so Justin Lin had to fall back to The Fast and Furious … Continue reading Supplemental Reading: Fast Five →

Join pop culture and history experts Elana Levin and Steven Attewell (whose secret identity is that he’s an actual historian) for our Podcast examining each episode of Season 7 of this hit Adult Swim show. This episode is about Season 7 Episode 2" "The Rorqual Affair".

The show’s central theme is failure– the reality of life after the promises and optimism of the 60s space age have faded. But also the positive value of failure as a way to learn and grow, of making unpleasant realities better, and ultimately whether you can learn to keep the joyfulness of youth without its illusions.
