@@TheUltima_Werewolf No, it literally doesn’t, because the point of his character design is very obviously in reference to the cartoonish way clouds are drawn. Being a monkey doesn’t change that even if you’re right. Even a child could see that you obtusely vacuous twat.
@@LyssTheCorgi doubt it would just be weed with what he's like. But weed allows people to go more indepth into ideas they normally wouldnt delve into..
@@meltedWax169 yeah fr cause weed don't make u act like that, i do 🍃 and all it really does is make me playful or tired, he's probably doing some hardcore stuff like meth because he's so paranoid 😭
Easily the best stoner representation since like Harold & Kumar. Kind of weird that he's in a kids show from CN but I was one of the kids that watched this chaos and it just makes like it more as an adult tbh... The late 2000s really blurred the line between Cartoon Network and Adult Swim I think
@@Chompling Probably because it's pretty hard to animate that way. Actually, a lot of the characters used to be animated much more smoothly, but knowing how animation works I ain't mad that they cut the smoothness down
9:25 A reminder that Mr Small isn't really a vegeterian, he actually hides his cravings for meat so he wouldn't be judged for it being a hippie. Gumball and Darwin even found out about it in that potato episode, so Gumball should've known that by now.
Mr. Small has always been my favorite. He's so chaotic and amazing, and he's almost got a point, but only almost. I like him. Edit: I really like what's happening in the replies
6:41 I have never not laughed at this scene. This was so funny to me when I was younger and it’s still funny to this very day…and it’s just a second of someone falling over.
Strangely, I think Mr. Small is probably the best teacher at Elmore junior high simply because of the fact that he seems to care the most about the education and general well being of the students. That's not to say he's a good teacher though, as some of his ideas on what that should look like and how to get there (i.e. the multiple acupuncture gags and silence snake) are not only insane, but definitely grounds to fire him.
@@dantevic you didn't hear? They said after the movie, they were gonna reboot tawog because of the "It was a show the whole time" plot. Probably rob is gonna do it to save them or something
Honestly the best part about Mr, Small is how casually he crossdresses. Nobody gives a shit about it. If that's the world he's forging, I wanna live in it.
I just realized that he has mommy issues from the episode with the paint where he danced, and at the end when he was screaming. The piece was named mother.
It's interesting how much he seemed to change with his voice. With the old voice he was a school counselor first and a hippie second, but when his voice changed he became the town hippie and the fact that he's a counselor was almost an afterthought.
That's honestly what is absolutely great about shows with absurdist humor. There's initially supposed to be a story that has a strict plot and established rules that the characters are supposed to adhere to...but then it slowly unravels into an incoherent, random mess that is every bit as hilarious as it is terrifying or strange. I wouldn't want Gumball any other way.
1:57 I am French and when I watched the show I've always thought he was talking about wheels since the words redhead and wheels sounds exactly the same ("roue" and "roux") which makes him even more insane: "I knew it ! Wheels are the descendant of an ancient alien race !"
From his earliest appearance, Mr. Small is such a goddamn loveable maniac. His first bit of screentime, he teaches Gumball and Darwin about "painting" by brutalizing and burning a Mona Lisa parody, and then covering them both with paint, telling them to "be the brush". That says a lot, looking back.
@@meltedWax169 Yeah, that's the thing. It only makes sense from a metaphorical perspective. How he actually approaches it is questionable in every way possible, and I love it.
The "Janice could never leave without me" joke is just great, cause he knows that Janice literally couldn't leave without her owner, which is later revealed. That is just his normal laugh.
@@sand7677 dude. reg rainbow patterns exist. I love that as a headcannon, but that likely isn't a pride sticker knowing how kid's cartoon networks work (even if the network is known for gay characters in later years) and the fact that one of the main things associated with hippie culture is rainbow patterns. Rainbow =/= confirmed gay
@@thisperson8441 I'm not saying he is, sorry if I phrased it like that, I meant moreso I personally think he is, you know? Also the creator support gay people so I wouldn't doubt that he may be in canon but idk
Even the wiki says "He tend to act like the one who needs the most help" That proves that he most definitely will need therapy of his own Also, I'm starting to see him as a vicious animal when he's eating meat or deciding to do cannibalism
