It was not a bad show, I thoroughly enjoyed the humor and the characters, but I don’t think it needs a second season. (Anything with more Cutter in it though? Yes please!)
Sully's refusal to mantain scare power in ANY capacity, even to save Monsters Inc, is what makes him better than Waternoose. He will let the company die before letting a single child be scared.
And actually if they can harness laugh power, not only does it ensure Monster Inc survival, it guarantees their long term future as laugh power is 10 times stronger than scare power and has no shelf life like scare power which decrease as children grows up, the issue was of course timing as this is a new territory
@@s4xtt Scare power doesn't have a "shelf life" as evident in Monsters University where they break the Dean's Scare Can from back when she was younger and it still screamed.
@@katiebabyxx6207 That Scare Power "expires" because kids grow up and stop being scared of monsters, according to in-universe explanation (Which is really silly, even adults would scream at the sight of one of Sully's roars); while comedy and Laugh Power are ageless, so to speak.
I have to agree, this is how a finale should be made, tying up loose ends, pulling heart strings, and end the season as a positive note. Now that's an ending. This and episode 7 are my favorite episodes from the season.
"The fear in her eyes when she was scared... I... I didn't like what I saw" "I act scary, Mike. But most of the time... I'm terrified" Both are entirely different evolutions of Sulley's character, but both have so much weight and reasoning behind them.
Monsters University is tragically underrated. That scene hit hard about expectations and behind the scenes with people as we got a more in depth look in sulleys personal life
Honestly, I think there might be a potential conflict between Monsters Inc. and Fear Co. Someone mentioned a plot idea of espionage from someone at Fear Co to make laugh power unpopular or something. That could be an interesting idea for Season 2.
@@LKYHGaming There were some little Toy Story series, I think. The newest is Forky asks a question or something, and it's kinda funny but it is not like Monster at work, and it only has a few episodes. So I think we should get a more longer series.
there are many different ways that season 2 could offer such as turning the show into an anthology series. However, the two main storylines I want to see is Sulley and Mike's relationship with Boo after the epilogue (if that's even possible) and Monster Inc's rivalry with Fear Co. I also like an episode featuring some of Mike and Sulley's college friends from Monster University guest starring.
You overlooked a serious threat: don't forget that Randall's still lurking somewhere in the swamps of the human world, looking for a chance to get back into monstropolis and take revenge on Mike and Sulley.
They said theres only going to be 15 episodes or how ever many there were this season monsters at work was a mini series 1 season is all we are getting google it yourself if you cant handle facts
I think for season 2 it would be cool if they went deep into the company rivalry between fear co. And monsters inc. and maybe even that johnny Worthington dude from monsters university could run fear co!!!
this could start a war between jokesters and scarers, johnny Worthington is a kind of monster guy who loves scaring and bring fear to kids, Chet the crab boy is in Fear co too. unlike sulley who care the well being of people and peace
I think it's pretty amazing how it came full circle for Mike. He wanted to be a scarer his whole childhood but has no knack for it and work hard and along with Sulley they do make the perfect scare duo but it's still not something u feel is fair after seeing his development in Monst Uni, but when they reverted to laugh power the door opens up for him and he finally gets the spotlight he deserve
I really like the rivalry between Duncan and Tyty purely on the fact that the writers could've gone with the "Jerk that doesn't care about his co-worker" for Duncan to someone who's just paranoid and has goals and mistakes and has some fun in reason Tyler
But still, there is a theory around that says Duncan was the one who created the scream extractor! Don’t believe me? Take a look at the files he have close to his desk, it even says laugh extractor. Pretty terrifying, he might be on early developments for the last machine!
I really like the series! Really builds the world and shows more of Monsters Inc. that not even the original had covered. Plus the cast are very enjoyable. I can't wait for a Season 2!
I really like how this show talks about something really important about jobs and is that things you studied for might change or be totally outdated in the future, it's up to you to catch up
Maybe they'll explore trying to get other companies to switch to laugh power. This could give us a chance to see the Oozma Kappa monsters again (while they did all become Scarers, they all also seem to have potential to be Jokesters). One thing I'd like to see is something similar to what happened in season 7: Sulley and Mike decide to review cases of other banished monsters to see if they should be un-banished (like the Adorable Snowman). Something goes wrong, and Randall finds his way back to the Monster World. I can see that going one of two ways, with Randall either seeking revenge and ultimately getting banished again, or him redeeming himself/beginning a redemption arc and becoming a series regular (or at least making guest appearances).
I don't think they would let Randall returned back, again he is boo's monster and Sully might be against the idea of having Randall returned in any capacity. (well we also see he got brutally go hit and possible dead)
@@gracekim25 Knowing what kind of people he end up being attacked, the worst case scenario is a shotgun in involved. but since this is a Disney show, they might have cut that part.At that point I kind assumed randal is dead. and regardless, Sullivan might not even approved randal return because of the trauma when he saw boo is scared and he know she have experience it multiple times by randal and almost a victim of the Scream Extractor.
Here's my big question...since Monsters Inc. is all about laughter instead of screams now, what will this mean for the colleges (ex. Monsters University and Fear Tech?) Will Dean Hardscrabble accept this change, could the brothers from Oozma Kappa find employment in the new company and how will the classes be taught
interesting thought. One of Hardscrabble's greatest achievements was record-breaking scream canister, which mike and sulley destroyed. now that Laughter is the new, harder, better energy, she's probably going to want to test her limits and see if she can completely ditch her comfort zone of scaring and fear, and collect her own laugh canister. It's going to be very hard for her; even harder than it was for Tylor; to learn how to do this, but the best teachers are the ones who are still learning themselves. and yes I bet the oozma guys could definitely use their talents in this new technological development :D
There are still other companies that use scream energy so they can work at fear co or others, probably a new career in M.U would be opened to teach comedy and that stuff
I personally love Mike's character development. To me, Mike has always been a deep character. Because of how he looks, he couldn't scare. He was bullied, even into college. Beaten by everyone in terms of scaring, and in MU he discovered that no, you don't need to aim for what you were trying to get, you could always get the second option, because just because you can't use those skills to yourself doesn't mean you can't teach it. You can see him teaching as he's now teaching how to make kids laugh, and he becomes one himself. MOW completed Mike's entire character. He finally became a ''scarer''.
monsters at owrk is a great way to show how the monsters struggled to go from scaring to laughter, i mean, all the universities teach them how to scare and now, they have to transfer from that to get kids to laugh. i think a s2 should be other companies sabotaging monsters inc. or characters from monsters university returning.
I personally loved this series, I think the reason why Mike and Sully got shorter roles the more the series went on because Pixar wanted to bring people in with Mike and Sully even though Tylor is the main character. Slowly as the series went on Pixar would ease you in to bigger roles for Tylor to show they can make a series driven by a brand new character, rather than the main characters of the original films. I just loved this series a lot, it was so much fun for me and I think Pixar should do more stuff like this with their other IPs (I personally would love to see a series based off Wall-E). If I was in charge of a season 2, I really wouldn’t know how I could pull off a season 2. There’s really nothing season 1 leaves off that season 2 could explore, but if season 2 were to happen, I’m sure Pixar will be creative on the story and find a way to make it work.
3 things I want from oncoming seasons, Oosma Kappa guys become jokesters or just make an appearance, Waternoose breaks out of prison to steal back the company for his family’s legacy, and what I think should be the finale of the entire series, an adaptation of lost in scaradise
I loved the series as a whole. Sure I could have used more Mike and Sully. But each episode had the heart of the original movies. But my kids 9,6, and 3 absolutely loved it! I think as adult watchers we need to remember that they are creating these shows for kids so what we might want is sometimes thrown out to give something for the kids to enjoy. I loved the baseball episode and the abominable snowman episode. I missed John Ratzenberger in the newest Pixar movies so it was great to hear him reprise his role. But the ending was tops! I couldn’t believe how many emotions it hit, especially after such a great ending in both movies. I loved it, and a season 2 would be great…but if not the show had a perfect run in my opinion.
I loved the baseball and snowman episodes too!! So wonderful to hear John Ratzenberger again. I 100% agree some things are gonna be made just for the kids watching! My point was that the show was just weirdly balanced with it's storytelling most of the way, and then dipped Mike and Sulley later on to focus on Tylor. With such an important role, it was weird to not focus on them for so long imo. Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! So great to hear other people are enjoying the show!!
@@gracekim25 because she was a huge part of the first movie so I thought maybe this show would have a b plot with her trying to figure out how to get back to the monster world to reunite with sully and mike or she just thought it was a dream and hasn't thought much of it and we're just focusing on her life as a teenager
I hope when season 2 comes out it can be even better and expand on the monster inc universe I also like how the series takes place after waternoose goes to jail and after the ending of the movie
Well, the trailer for Season 2 just dropped, and it looks like you're gonna get your wish: we get to see FearCo, explore the Laugh-vs-Scare power dynamic, and explore Tyler's other job prospects.
This is a great analysis. This episode was truly great. One thing I also like about the series was how at the end of each episode they played an alternate version of the classic theme and each one was awesome. I also how that we also get an update of Randall too, even if it's a few seconds
This video didnt mention the genius tie in to the final scene of the movie. placing the events of the series between BEFORE the ending scene of the movie.
What I love is that he works in Mift while being annoyed with his start. Mift is also a word we use in the UK to mean slightly annoyed. I dunno if it was on purpose or just a coincidence but knowing Pixar it is most likely on purpose!
Something interesting about Fear Corp is that Randal could be there. Last time we see him he was thrown in a Hilly Billy trailer, so there STILL chance for him to take the opportunity to go to some kids house and get back home, taking the chance another Monster is around. Probably finding by a kid screaming, and since Fear Corp is another big shot of using scares for energy, he will probably end up there. Since he was the second best at Monster Inc, he will probably be offered a chance to work there, and if they also have plans to sabotage the new Monster Inc (which they would have reasons since if Laughter is becoming the new best energy provider) they WILL want to put them out of the game, and Randal will want in to get back at Sully and Mike.
5:57 Yeah that is really funny. It reminds me of the classic alter-ego cliche and people trying to expose it. The most prominent one is Sally Rassmousen (is that right?) trying to expose Professor von Volt as a mad scientist she thinks he really is in the body swap episode. Yes, there's a Geronimo Stilton series Also, the next OPAS video should be either Wander over Yonder or Geronimo Stilton or the Loud House or even Code Lyoko
did anyone convert the stilton tv show to english? it looks really good, and I was a huge fan of the books as a kid, but the only versions of it I find are in another language.
I really wonder where they’re going to with, if they get a second season. Cause even though laugh power has been working, it’s revealed to be a bit faulty. Plus, a bunch of Scarers are forced to be put out of work due to Mike and Sulley’s decision. If the laugh power begins to fail, they have to decide on something to keep power going. Like Monsters Inc could take Jokesters AND Scarers, as the Scarers can act as a “Boogeyman Program” or something similar. This could also make things complicated for Tylor, as he can torn trying to either stay a Jokester(That he painfully tried to get into), became a Scarer(Which he has originally trained to do, or return to MIFT(Which he got used to during his time).
The ending to both Monsters Inc. and Season One of Monsters at Work where Mike and Val the closest friends to Sulley and Tylor both give the monsters their happy endings: Sulley reunites with Boo and Tylor finally becomes a comedian, indirectly fulfilling his dream of becoming a scarer after all like with Mike from Monsters’ University but as a comedian.
Every time I hear the intro guitar strum in your videos it sounds like the Panic! At The Disco version of Into The Unknown from the Frozen 2 soundtrack
The finale was a big surprise. Significantly better than the other episodes. Tylors arc wasn't predicable. He considered permanently joining mift and just like how mift grew on him I personally fell in love with the mift characters as well. That scene between Tylor and Sully was great and addressed why laugh power is morally the right thing to do. It was also great to see Sulley get such a scene because he was kinda underutilized compared to Mike up to that point. The plot is finale worthy. Mike and sully had a big part which was important for the final episode. When Tylor left mift and it honestly made me really emotional. And of course the best thing is how it had the twist ending of how it tied into the epilogue of monsters inc. I absolutely loved that!!
Hey Jonathan, I think I should tell you that I believe your channel is really quite amazing. It’s what movie/television reviews should be. Finding the good stuff in nostalgia.
Sooo agree! It was the scene where Sulley explains to Tylor about Boo was what made the series for me. It was indeed perfect. And after watching the series a few times, I’m really excited for a season 2. Would love to see what happens with Sully, Tylor, Mike’s’ storylines.
They should do something like this for the incredibles. They could have it set in the films time but have it focus on the family's life and have it keep going leading to Violet's graduation
Hey! Haven't you heard recent news? Cartoon Network rejected Maxwell Atom's continuation to “The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy”! I need you to spread the word to every other animation RU-vidr to get every other animation lovers to remember the show! As well as introducing a new generation of kids to the series!
Wait… if Mike and Sulley’s college friends made it to The Scare Program( and presumably passed) Wouldn’t they be in Monster’s Inc.? If they made it, where are they?
I think Monsters at Work is wonderful and The Season One Finale was Amazing so I hoping Season Two will be outstanding and Boo being There is going to make this Better!😈🥰❤😁💖⭐👍
I teared up at the end because it was a copy and paste of the Epilogue of the movie and it was perfect for the fact that it wrapped it up while showing that the series took place between the jump in the movie
What I hope for in season 2 of Monsters At Work, is to answer one question that everyone's been asking since the first movie came out in theaters, what happened to Mr. Waternoose after he was arrested for kidnapping?
I've not seen the series, but I'm not too bothered by spoilers either. Something that doesn't seem to be adding up to me from an outsiders perspective: The original movie seemed to be saying that laughter generates way more power than scares. So how is it that they are struggling to keep the company afloat through laugh power? Shouldn't it be far more effortless to succeed on laugh power than scare power?
I would love to see the Randy Boggs or any of the previous Monsters University Osma Kappa join the laugh floors as at least Randy Boggs and Art were Hilarious!
The transition from fear to laugh had a lot of plot potential, how the monster world react to this change, how monster university react to this changes, How other company that still using fear react to this change. There is a ton of implication.
Question: The monsters work to make children laugh,..... but what about children who are going through hard times in their lives (Homeless, Lost loved ones, Dealing with bullies, and so on). What about them? Do the monsters have a plan of action for that or not? (Sorry, I know that sounds like a crazy question but I'm curious so I had to ask)
Hey @karissarasmussen567! That's actually a really interesting question, and it's not crazy at all. I think it's important to consider how the monsters in the Monster Inc. world would handle children who are going through tough times. While the main focus of the monsters is to make children laugh, I believe they would also have empathy and compassion for kids facing difficult situations. Maybe they could find creative ways to bring comfort and support to those children, like sharing positive messages or helping them overcome their fears.
I thought Monsters at Work was a pretty alright show. The biggest thing holding it back for me is Tylor. I just didn't care about his character all that much or find him interesting. I kinda wish he just stayed with MIFT. Towards the end he seemed like he started enjoying working with MIFT and it was heartwarming to see him having more fun with the other characters. I just didn't care to see him become a jokester. The biggest problem is just that he wasn't funny to me. I get that the whole point of his character for most of the series is that he's unfunny, but I feel like for the jokester arc to work, he has to become funny by the end, which for me he didn't. The show just kinda expects me to believe he's funny because kids start to laugh at him at the end, but I just wasn't buying it. It just doesn't feel right for him to become a jokester when he didn't make me laugh once.
