Fanboy and chum chum in Different Styles

Art By: Funk Flenkers

It’s fanboy and chum chum’s 17th anniversary since it premiered in October 12 2009, The show is created by animator Eric Robles who had worked on shows like Billy and Mandy, The x’s, Glitch techs, and Mixels as he wanted to tell stories about being a kid so he goes back to his early childhood and reimagining all the things in his life.

so he originally pitched this idea for a program from Nickelodeon called Random cartoons that aired projects like adventure time, the bravest warriors, Moo beard the cow pirate, Kyle and rosemary and hero heights just to name a few, luckily for Robles his pilot was picked to become a full series to premiere after SpongeBob’s truth or square (terrible choice)

The show follows our so called “Superheros” Tobias Lance crannapple and Edmund chummery or better know as fanboy and chum chum as they get into random shenanigans and looney toons esque adventures and daily life’s in the colorful world of Galaxy hills with all of the side characters one of them for example is Kyle bloodwarth Thomason as he has been expelled from his former wizard school for turning his professor in raspberry flan and also has to be fed up by fanboy and chum chums antics.

With Its unique artstyle like the fairly oddparents,Total drama island, Clone high,and jimmy neutron as every character has there own unique design and also involves chaotic slapstick, pop culture references, sci-fi and fantasy stories vivid title cards, squash and stretch animations and has a entire cast of voice actors such as David Hornsby, Nika futterman, Jamie Kennedy, Jeff Bennett who almost voices every single character, Candi Milo, John DiMaggio, Kevin Micheal Richardson, Nolan north, Johnathan Adams and Amir Talai, (also off topic they have all these people but no tom Kenny)

However the show was let’s just say not received well as it was well known by the entire cartoon community As one of the worst Nickelodeon cartoons ever made in the late 2000s and early 2010s as you will commonly seen lots of reviews on YouTube,Facebook, deviant Art, Rotten Tomatoes, IMDB and Common sense media.

Reasons such as fanboy and chum chums themselves, the over reliance on toilet humor (only in the first season) the animation, The jokes,character designs and writing and storytelling, the fact it was chosen over adventure time and basically came out of the time Nickelodeon was trying to make all of their cartoons like SpongeBob SquarePants.

But not all reviews were all negative as it won 5 Emmy awards for its animation, gain 5.8 million viewers and had merchandise and mascot costumes that were commonly used for Nickelodeon Hotel and resorts and Comic con and the people who were born in the 2000s and 2010s Love the show for its Wacky cast of characters,over the top plots, childlike experience, and the absurdity of it and even internet memes as the show had it’s redemption arc in 2020 with the recent Netflix cartoon called Glitch techs and the people who hated the show when it first came out start to appreciate it more for what it was trying to be and now is seen as a guilty pleasure (but is still hated til this day)

So what is your thoughts on fanboy and chum chum, do you think that it’s one of the worst cartoons of all time or a Misunderstood underrated gem.

So, I learned that The Amazing Digital Circus made a bizarre appearance on Law & Order recently

For context: The Amazing Digital Circus was referenced in an episode of Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent (Season 4, Episode 3).

The plot follows the Toronto Major Crimes Unit investigating a case where a group of high school students is accused of recording the death of their teacher. One of the primary suspects was seen wearing a full Jax cosplay costume in the pictures on the right.

Don't worry, I'm as baffled as you are that Law & Order of all shows would reference it. However, I would be lying if I said that somebody on that show's writing team is a huge Jax fan.

BTW, the suspect's name is Jaxxon.

That one scene where all the budget went

Kaguya-sama: Love is War - Chika's dance

In the first season as a surprise outro ending one episode had this Chika dance number. It's super cute and crazy animated, especially her dress. They used it one time and never again.

The roller rink dance sequence from the Family Guy episode Hell Comes To Quahog was the most expensive scene to animate in Season 5.

  • Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie

  • The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
  • Toy Story 5
  • Zootopia 2

Elio, The Bad Guys 2, Goat, and Hoppers would've been possibilities of it weren't for the long gap between ceremonies. I thought Forgotten Island would be nominated given how that film just came out, but I guess it got disqualified since nobody's seen it.

Esmeralda from GoodTimes Entertainments Hunchback of Notre Dame

Esmeralda is probably the most designed character in this version of the story. Many think that the designers tried most with her relative the other characters. However the designers are guilty of putting her in red and they made her look too sexy. They put her in a strapless corset and a long red skirt with a slit that goes all the way up her leg. Her clothes are just wrong for the time period. But at least she is pretty.

What are your thoughts on this character?
