2:36 -"OH YEAH!" "Rosebud Yes, Rosebud Frozen Peas. Full of country goodness and green peaness. Wait, that's terrible. I Quit! Just a handful for the road... Oh, what luck, there's a french fry stuck in my beard! Oh yeah!"
Now I'm starting to see why this show is semi-popular here on YT. It really is the Family Guy before Family Guy. "Be an independant thinknker." That was clever.
There's a lot of classic references. The Seventh Seal is right after Potempkin. And of corse there's Singin in the Rain and King Kong, that guy who can make weird faces from Ripley's Believe it or Not, and the the Michael Jackson dancer guy from Venice Beach and of course the Kool Aid man, and that first footage of a nuke.
@TheKnives777 so for the critic to be shown on Adult Swim Time Warner would only be allowed to rent the episodes.100 episodes in syndication Is where the money is, stations loyal to the company generally have first choice on any program it offers.For other shows syndicated by other companies, syndication rights may be auctioned off to the highest bidder in a particular market. In other words. No 100 episodes, No one wants it. they feel the ratings will stagnate the all ready appointed line up
Yeah, that's the Kool-Aid Man who did a series of commercials where he would burst through brick walls to deliver Kool-Aid to thirsty kids. It is just a mindless piece of American pop culture just inserted into there.
@3lgar1 they would have but syndication can only be sold for reruns if the show reached 100 episodes. Unfortunately the critic only managed to reach 23, with in 2 seasons.
@3lgar1 once a network picks up a show, it usually is guaranteed to run on most or all the network's affiliates since Sony, Viacom & Disney own everything, you'll see the shows on different networks owned by such corporations. Only 2 episodes of Clerk's were shown on ABC and it was seen as a total failure both in ratings and demographics So ABC quick sold the show to Viacom to make up for their loss. Sony PT still owns the rights to the Critic and leased the show to Viacom who owns CC.
