LOL That's what every decade claims for itself. :) So much for the pink glasses of nostalgia. :) But one thing is for sure. This animated series was one of the best in US TV besides Samurai Jack. I am so upset that it not just got axed but got never released on DVD and a soundtrack CD. Can someone please make a loop of this music piece please? It was not just the amazing good soundtrack but the stellar voice cast (ESPECIALLY for a TV animation series), the unforgettable one-liners and stupid comments which still make me laugh today and of course those mountains of puns and side-blows on all kinds of pop culture and insider jokes. :)
Listen up, you jive clone wannabe... You wrecked my alternate dimension city... Blew up my robot... And worst of all, made ME look skinny... Well you're in MY dimension now *And we do things a little differently here*
@@stevenshafferii6862 The reason Goat sold it for 2 bucks is because Coop found Megas while going through a pile of junk, where everything inside was 2 bucks, which included Megas.
@@stevenshafferii6862 Coop was constantly bugging him about the price of stuff in a junk pile, so he just told him the entire pile was worth 2 bucks, seconds after he found the giant robot. The best part is that he never paid him the 2 bucks lmfao
I'm Guy Fieri and today on Diners Drive ins and Robots. I beat the stuffing out of the Glorft, and try the delicious food at the food court at the planet of the Amazon babes
Now thanks to the Internet I can get back to my childhood where I used to get excited to watch that cartoon and always pretending that I was either Coop or Megas actually to this day I still want to be more like Coop this song brings me so many feels so #bringMegasback
God, that would be so amazingly hype. Maybe have a few less mass-produced Mobile Suits that nobody in their right mind would every deploy or invest in in favor of ONE cool and original character? You could even have Jamie and Kiva as sub-pilots.
Legit, going through all the best cartoons of Old Cartoon Network. I'm pretty sure that if you do not count series like Rick & Morty, Primal, Metalocalypse, & SuperJail! that Megas XLR was the best cartoon they ever produced. Megas XLR Samurai Jack Courage the Cowardly Dog Ed Edd & Eddy Dexter's Lab Power Puff Girls Kids Next Door ...... I'm sure I'm missing some good gems there... Point being: Megas XLR was the most profound cartoon they ever made, but it cost between 2-3 million per episode & that was like Simpsons Money back in the mid 2000s. Not surprised they couldn't make it back without DvDs & MERCH. GODS! It's like they WANTED IT TO FAIL???
Cartoon Network DID want it to fail. The creators wanted it to go on, but the network did not because it was competing with Teen Titans and Ben 10. It was moved to the 3:30 am slot so it wouldn't get views, and then they declared it a tax loss because it wasn't getting views (meaning that the money spent to make the episodes was for nothing). And that's basically how the show died. I think the video I heard this in is called "Hats Off to Megas XLR" There's a lot more information there and it should be easy to find
man, cartoon network wronged every single mecha show they had. megas? tax writeoff. Big O? plot got too convoluted and confusing, and it completely retconned itself at the end sym-biotic titan? cancelled because it "couldn't market enough toys". i hope whoever was in charge when these shows aired was fired for workplace incompetence
"What? Ain't nothin' to worry about. I don't mess up!" Kiva: What?! What about the ice planet!? Coop: Best water park in the galaxy! Jamie: And the S-Force's planet? Coop: I fixed it, didn't I? Jamie: After Kiva forced you! And what about the killer robots that attacked Philly? Coop: I stopped them, and I put all the fires out! Kiva: You made them WORSE. Coop: Ah, worse? Or cooler lookin'?
Can't think of anything with Steve Blum that I didn't like. He knows how to pick good shows to be in 😄 Jamie is voice acted by the same guy as Spike from "Cowboy Bebop" and also does Wolverine every once in a while.
I swear I heard this song in a Wawa commercial. I thought I was going nuts at first, but I'm very sure this is it. They went hard in the music for this show and it left that much of an impact all these years later.
