Seth MacFarlane & Butch Hartman - Zoo Mates 

Yeap a really Big cursed combination

cry about it

@@ghhn4505 huh?

They're polar opposites in political views yet so similar in terms of their career path, looks, and personas. Both seem to have a large ego but Seth is more humble definitely of the two. Also, both created cartoons and do voicework in said cartoons. Seth is the only one of them that's also an actor though. And Seth is more for adult animation and films while Butch usually just does family or kids's animation and some live-action tv shows or movies based on said animation.

Haha I think we all agree there. I do wonder if Seth MacFarlane has had much to do with Family Guy's writing in a long time. Still am not crazy about his work though and Butch is uh. Well yeah lmao

6:50 Oh yeah Cartoons

Very few cartoons are broadcast live. It's a terrible strain on the animators' wrists.

​@@hotelmario510 missed the joke.

​@@Web720 no u just did

@@Web720 no u did

I knew that

They even have the same first name, Elmer

Cool!

They honestly look and feel like best friends lol

He originally voice him in the original pilot of family guy

Butch doesn't have a style. What you think is "Butch's" style was actually invented by Stephen Silver.

​@@SergeantExtremewomp womp

@@NateS917 this is not a womp womp moment are you stupid

I don't see Seth's artstyle anywhere. At most, maybe the simple backgrounds sometimes.

​@@gabrielcastejon7914I can see a bit of Seth in the Polar bear, and the colors and spacing/pacing between characters

2:48 gave me Strangler vibes

It's Thomas F. Wilson who was Biff in Back To The Future.

The zookeeper is voiced by the same person who voices Bubble Bass.

@@tweer64 Thomas F. Wilson also voiced Flatts the Flounder.

You mean Biff Tanner?

+Alex-Zander Browne If only they wrote the character Helen into The Fairly Oddparents, passing herself off as Vicky's cousin.

Helen's a different character

Where?

@Gabriel Litewski No one said otherwise but okay.

Who sounds like adult Helga

Yep I hate the laugh tracks man

@@andrive gotta know when the joke is you aren't smart enough to understand

I kind of want to see Seth Macfarlane do another kids show.

@@derekpayneszubliminals7723 Me 2.

@@derekpayneszubliminals7723 Look up Larry and Steve.

And it has that distinct Hanna-Barbera-like charm to it too!

i'm pretty sure the laugh track was edited in by the uploader. it has a different sound quality to the actual audio of the short

@@CrashFan03 Really? I could not tell.

idk, looks pretty terrible to me

@@jonathanwallis3300 I can see that

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m06RAM8Qcx02.html

Assuming it get past 2005

Are they still friends? I mean Seth is a liberal atheist, and Butch is a born-again christian conservative. If they still are, that's awesome. I can't find an interview between the two of them that expresses their friendship.

The last time I've ever seen Butch acknowledge Seth was for the 2010 (or 2011) Johnny Bravo season 1 DVD where he playfully refers to Seth as an unknown animator who's career never took off. I'm sure they're still friends regardless though.

AlexTheMenace Cool, can you get me a link to that? I would also like to know his connection with Genndy Tartakovsky and Craig McKrackin

Max Seuberlich I'll try to see if that special feature is available on RU-vid or elsewhere. Although I have no idea what his relationship with Genndy or Craig is other than the fact that they worked together on Dexter's Lab but I'd also like to know.

He mentions Seth in his Danny phantom video on his RU-vid channel

I know right?! That would have been interesting

Tell me about it. This could've worked! But nooooooooooooooooooooo...Nickelodeon's really just a creative control-obsessed dickweeds in their time.

Too focused on Spongebob

It’s more dexters lab animation

I think its from "what a cartoon" that was on during the early 90s on cartoon network that had a lot of shorts from a lot of writers to see what'd be good enough to be an actual series

Yes

@@OmniXerzYes

Oh god, please no

They hated each other

@@IrrelevantToCommentLmfao They actually were friends.

This was before Family Guy lol

@@Chicken_Wing91 but after he did, like two other version of it: Life of Larry and Larry & Steve.

@@gabe_s_videos those were what got the ball rolling for family guy lol

@@Chicken_Wing91 they were prototypes for family guy. Therefore I’m counting them.

You know he worked on Johnny Bravo, right?

Meanwhile in a different universe this show would've have the same fate as Fairly Oddparents and Family Guy... Lasting for several seasons to the point where the audience stops caring about it.

It was written by Macfarlane! It wouldn't be the same without him! (and not in a good way)

What the fuck is wrong with people? Why does everyone hate seth? He's more talented and successful than any of you 20 year old virgin white guys bitching on the internet.

@@johnwest6690 "i'm gonna prove my point that only my opinion is right by calling everyone else something to make them feel like losers... that'll help my cause" get a life. i like Seths work a lot but he makes a lot of mistakes and a lot of people dont like his stuff. that's the case with ANYONE who make popular shit, not everyone loves everything made by any particular person, stop taking it so personally.

It kinda makes sense given that it's a parody of sitcoms, with the goofy roomates and all, but even if we don’t mind the laugh track one has to see where those who can't stand it are coming from.

Same

Especially Seth

It’s an ironic name

Don’t you mean Phil Hartman?

@@georgedeboo9046 nope, it aint Phil.

You're right about the polar bear, but the alligator is voiced by S. Scott Bullock while the ostrich is voiced by Phil LaMarr.

​@@andrewpotts I thought the alligator was Seth at first. It sounded like his "gay voice".

@@andrewpotts I thought I heard Phil LaMarr LOL!

Same.

This would’ve been an interesting show. I definitely would’ve watched it.

Helen

Unironically would have been a masterpiece then. It's like when you put random weird things in a soup that end up tasting amazing.

John K. would have had the animals picking their noses and making gross faces.

If you still could. I mean, he was the executive producer of COSMOS.

Alex-Zander Browne What?

There would be no Fairly OddParents though if this got greeenlit it doesn't really have that much potential anyway

Chicago Critic Gerald you and me both brother

Chicago Critic Gerald cool to know

Poorly aged comments

@@mattsa9540 oh who asked u

@@Masterghostunlimited some events happen to butch where he is hated now

Yeah I figured because I went to collage with him

+XxBigBadBlizzard You went to college with Seth MacFarlane?

No Animation and Alton Towers Fan​

+ACCOUNT SUSPENED SOMETHING YOU KNOW WHATEVER I know, I actually quite like some of Butch Hartman's work.

+XxBigBadBlizzard clearly not caz u can't spell

Why Seth will be his worst enemy ? I understand for Butch but Seth ?

Omg idk I never watched the show

Larry and Steve was also a prototype of Family Guy. Even down to the voices Seth MacFarlane created for Peter and Brian.
