Nilsson is awesome.
The song is so odd and sweet, it makes you think that this could have been a sweet, oddball cartoon that used Candy's voice for something great. This is not that cartoon.
This is not nearly as good as I remember it being as a kid.
All of us blocked it out, some of us more than others.
I remembered it being great, so of course revisiting it isn't a good idea ...
There was a point when all members of SCTV had their own cartoons, including Eugene Levy's short-lived "Kibbutz Kids".
Pointless Trivia about me: I have met every single unsuccessful former member of SCTV. All I say is, if you're right, I really want to see Joe Flaherty's cartoon.
I vaguely remember Count Floyd being on the Ed Grimley show.
Don't forget the "Bob and Doug" cartoon, which aired on Canadian TV a year or so ago!
The female SCTV cast didn't get shit.
Whenever I see an overly serious nerdy kid archtype in any of these cartoons, I am enraged to the point of giving as many stars as possible.
Cartoons with laugh tracks = evil.
All I remember about this show was that John Candy was in it, so of course I remembered it as being good.
true dat
I had almost forgotten about this show.
Why are comedies more depressing than drama?
It's all about failing to live up to their intent. Bad comedies make us weep; bad tragedies make us laugh.
So this is where Family Guy got their formula!
Yup. I still know the song lyric's by heart.
Those animals were holding up the scorecards before they even landed. That shit was fixed. Fuck you for cheating John Candy. Fuck you.
This was the Saturday morning cartoon I had to suffer through because (The Real) Ghostbusters was on right after.
