I'm a Gen Xer, so most of the cartoons I grew up watching were in the 80's, and consisted of Looney Tunes, Hanna-Barbera, and shows like He-Man and Inspector Gadget. I loved watching Scooby Doo when I was a kid. When the 90's came, I would watch the Simpsons, Darkwing Duck, and DuckTales.
80s and 90s were peak cartoons. Then they started a decline for a while, but I think we're seeing a second renaissance. Especially indie animation. Probably because the people who grew up with those 80s/90s cartoons are now in a position to make their own.
Jada is a really great singer, you should develop something with Izzy and Dani to do some extra singing episodes. A synopsis would be great for all recommendations. Nicole, again interesting facts like "role model for a cartoon-free life" - later becoming a nerd (in a good way).
Love Jada's song! 🙌❤ '94 🤟 I watched Dexter's Lab, Ed Edd and Eddy, Courage, Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo etc AND of course Pokemon but that's an anime 😉🤪 Great episode and great podcast overall 🤍
Missed alot of the 90s golden classic cartoons. Mighty max. Swat kats. Xmen. King author and the knights of justice. Street sharks. Biker mice from mars. Etc
The cartoons I watched were mainly in the 80’s and early 90’s like smurfs, snorks, muppet babies, dinosaurs, teenage mutant ninja turtles. Things like that.
The 90s and 200s had some of my favorite shows Danny Phantom Fairly Odd Parents Dexter’s Laboratory DragonBallZ VeggieTales! PowerPuffGirls Icarly Drake and Josh Friends All of them were and still my favorite shows
Yes, competing with siblings to watch cartoons before catching the bus in the morning Mon - Fri. On Sat Morning watching Cartoons all morning before doing chores. OOoo Toonami Mon- Fri after school and doing homework and studying for tests in between the shows. Yep yep.
As far as animated shows go, it's hard to pick a favorite for me. There were three shows I watched religiously in the 90s: TMNT, DuckTales, and Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers. And now I own all three on DVD (TMNT, DuckTales) and Blu-Ray (Chip 'n' Dale).
Secret world of David the gnome was def one of the best cartoons ever need to put the finale on a try not to cry an y'all need to make everyone apart of all the channels that haven't seen it watch newsies the movie not the play I'm not of the play but love the movie
For current animation series, Hazbin Hotel and The Legend of Vox Machina are the ones I'm enjoying right now. Also, save Lower Decks. It's so disappointing they're cancelling such a great show in favor of a spin off series no one asked for to a series few people liked.
I know Jada is a producer so she is behind the scenes, but I've said this another vid where she was reacting. She's really likeable in front of the camera too.
This was my fav episode of ReactCAST yet! I don't know why , but it seems like Nicole always says stuff that triggers my few remaining brain cells, this time it was her comment about south park and it's creators, that brought back some really good memories. Back in the olden days(1980s) before there was a RU-vid, even before there was an internet there was a thing every year called "Spike & Mike's festival of animation", creators would come from all over to show their wares there and they got into the habit of running late or midnight shows where they would show the things they couldn't show at the regular shows. Those midnight shows received so many entries they became their own festival "Spike & Mike's Sick & Twisted festival of animation" and we went every year. I remember one year, I think '92 at "Sick & Twisted" Trey Parker and Matt Stone debuted this short they created about four boys in a Colorado town and at that same show a dude name Mike Judge debuted a short titled "Frog Baseball" about two dimwitted metal heads the headliner was Weird Al who debuted the video for his new single "Jurassic Park" which was all done in clay-mation, I remember I was so excited because I got to talk to him and he signed my program. Also please do another animation episode.
You should do a millennials episode for cartoons/shows in general where you have an older millennial and a younger millennial. I was an older millennial and my sister a younger millennial so I have some nostalgia connected with her cartoons, but none of those were here. That would be an interesting episode.
I've been watching various React channels for a while now but this is my first ReactCAST and I'm very impressed. Great format and a really interesting discussion. I have a question about content... you used to have a much wider range of reactors when it comes to age. Where have all your GenX and Boomer reactors gone, I'd love to see another podcast on this subject but with 80's cartoons discussed instead. Great stuff as always folks, Love and Light to you all.
I would honestly like to see a version of this podcast but with kids live-action shows. As a kid in the 90s, I watched more live-action shows than animated, and it would be divided mainly between Disney and Nickelodeon.
Nah joe is lying about total drama as a show, don't believe him Hes just mad his son acted different after watching Also the 2 winners thing isn't bad its weird he thinks that
Joe's tirade against Total drama had me going... is he going off the deep end? And then hearing the defenses of the show, I was like... fuck this show.
Also idk why joe is mad about the 2 winners thing, when they always make the canon winner the american winner, its our show here in canada, and he still got the canon winner
This is hard because I love 2 shows from the 90s and 2 shows from the 2000s. Powerpuff Girls and Dexter's Laboratory were the first ones I've watched, and Foster's and Chowder are the comedy cartoons I watched after. Powerpuff Girls shaped my career, as well as Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends. This is the hardest debate to make.
would love it if you could get more voice actors to stop by, Karen Fukahara (kipo/glimmer, ect) Shelby young, just anyone you think you can get! I met Grey in atl about two yrs ago shes cool!
I totally agree with Joe about Total Drama Island. I would know when my kid watched it. His demeanor would change for the worst after watching it. I banned him from watching it.
